convert txt "Circle Digits" to midi (http://www.astro.univie.ac.at/~wasi/PI/pipoem402.html) For a time I stood pondering on circle sizes. The large computer mainframe quietly processed all of its assembly code. Inside my entire hope lay for figuring out an elusive expansion. Value: pi. Decimals expected soon. I nervously entered a format procedure. The mainframe processed the request. Error. I, again entering it, carefully retyped. This iteration gave zero error printouts in all-success. Intently I waited. Soon, roused by thoughts within me, appeared narrative mnemonics relating digits to verbiage! The idea appeared to exist but only in abbreviated fashion-little phrases typically. Pressing on I then resolved, deciding firmly about a sum of decimals to use-likely around four hundred, presuming the computer code soon halted! Pondering these ideas, words appealed to me. But a problem of zeros did exist. Pondering more, solution subsequently appeared. Zero suggests a punctuation element. Very novel! My thoughts were culminated. No periods, I concluded. All residual marks of punctuation = zeros. First digit expansion answer then came before me. On examining some problems unhappily arose. That imbecilic bug! The printout I possessed showed four nine as foremost decimals. Manifestly troubling. Totally every number looked wrong. Repairing the bug took much effort. A pi mnemonic with letters truly seemed good. Counting of all the letters probably should suffice. Reaching for a record would be helpful. Consequently, I continued, expecting a good final answer from computer. First number slowly displayed on the flat screen-3. Good. Trailing digits appar- ently were right also. Now my memory scheme must probably be implementable. The technique was chosen, elegant in scheme: by self reference a tale mnemonically helpful was ensured. An able title suddenly existed-"Circle Digits." Taking pen I began. Words emanated uneasily. I desired more synonyms. Speedily I found my (alongside me) Thesaurus. Rogets is probably an essential in doing this, instantly I decided. I wrote and erased more. The Rogets clearly assisted immensely. My story proceeded (how lovely!) faultlessly. The end, above all, would soon joyfully overtake. So, this memory helper story is incon- testably complete. soon I will locate publisher. There a narrative will I trust immediately appear, producing fame. The end. /*Start at Poe, E. and put down the number of letters in each word and put a period after Poe,. If a word has 10 letters, it represents a zero. If there is a word that is greater than 10, count it as two digits. (The number 12 would be the digits 1 and 2)*/ =pi(402) midi<---> Pure Data sq ; [soundforge manipulations] -----> PI# ___|___ / Pi / / / || || | | _ ____| |____ _ |\\ sf | | sf //| | \\ | | // |____________ -------___| \\_| T |_// | PD <--- midi Sf___ | | | Poe ------- | | | | / | | \_______________ / | | \ / Pi | | Pi \ / \ /_________________________\
