Creativity

The forces that motivate. A talent that is born in certain individuals regardless of the nature of the calling needs an outlet. An outlet in total free form, or within a given set of rules. Toward this end I want to engage all that are so inclined to expand creatively within a given set of rules. These can be leveraged against music, programming, writing, painting, and photography.
I will attempt to add examples of each discipline.
I claim not to know the answers, just to comment on the journey.
I feel the need to develop the left brain right brain synergy.

Router modes and channel impairments

What does it mean for a wireless network to be operating in "infrastructure mode?" Clients connected to a base station (an access point or router) are operating in infrastructure mode. They communicate indirectly through this access point or router which serves as a bridge to a wired network. Ad-hoc mode networks are networks that do not rely on a router or access point infrastructure. As a result, each client participates in the routing by forwarding data to the other connected clients. What are the differences between the following types of wireless channel impairments:  path loss, multipath propagation, interference from other sources? Multipath propagation is when packet loss occurs due to electromagnetic waves reflecting off of ground objects which then take paths of different lengths between sender and receiver. Interference from other sources happens when there is interference from radio sources transmitting in the same frequency band. Wireless phones and wirel...

Database Normalization Basics

There are 3 primary reasons why a database should be normalized: It brings data integrity to the tables (entities). This facilitates proper inserting, updating, and deleting of data thereby preventing data anomalies. If a table is not normalized it runs the risk of inconsistent data, data redundancies, and inconsistent result sets.   To create entity relationships thereby providing referential integrity. Referential integrity ensures that relationships between tables remain consistent when entities are altered. To avoid having one set of users with a biased view of the data. For example a marketing department may view the data in line with their revenue needs rather than having an objective view of the data as it applies to the entire organization. We begin by analyzing the current relationships that exist between the attributes within each entity. Apparent in the Orders entity is the repeating data in the ITEM_NAME, ITEM_DESCRIPT, QUANTITY, and PRICE attributes. We bre...

Solar Tones

Solar Tones is a system of tone generation based on the position of the planets in the solar system for any given month. The tonal or key centers were derived from the open strings of the guitar. Background The guitar is constructed in such a way that the intervals occur chromatically ascending and descending. I've drawn the parallel between the construction of the guitar and the structure of our solar system. Planetary order Sun Mercury Venus Earth Mars Jupiter Saturn Uranus Neptune Pluto This system assigns an interval to each planet in the solar system, and additionally depending on their positions in the solar system, I have a different set of tones each month to use as a composition frame work. Planets and their equivalent interval order Sun -> Open Mercury -> mi2 Venus -> Ma2 Earth -> mi3 Mars -> Ma3 Belt of Asteroids -> P4 & aug4 Jupiter -> P5 Saturn -> mi6 Uranus -> Ma6 Neptune -> mi7 Pluto -> Ma7 The role of planetary as...
