I found the Slonimsky pattern that directly corresponds to Shawn Lane's "Most Difficult" guitar chord. How to Become a Guitar Player from Hell http://tinyurl.com/najtwc9 Underground Guitar Handbook http://tinyurl.com/h3ngusx Other books by Jason Earls here: http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/jasonearls

I chose a pattern from Nicolas Slonimsky's book, "Thesaurus of Scales and Melodic Patterns" and tried to make a piece of music with it. To me this pattern has a Mahavishnu-like flavor, which is why I included some images of John McLaughlin and Mahavishnu Orchestra. Thanks for listening.

This video explains the guitar chord that Shawn Lane referred to as, "the hardest chord in the world." The soundtrack is an instrumental I made up that uses a variation of this chord.

If you like the mathematical problem mentioned in this video, you may also like some of the recreational math books I have written (they are somewhat low-to-medium quality). The books mainly consist of various number theory problems that are explored via computation.

The soundtrack is me doing my best to play like the great Django Reinhardt, but not getting very close. Thanks for listening. If you know anyone interested in playing electric guitar, you might have them check out my book, 'How to Become a Guitar Player from Hell.' Although it's probably not the *greatest* guitar book ever written (I'd say it's of medium quality), it does contain a lot of playing tips, exercises, advice, and some humorous anecdotes for entertainment purposes as well.

The soundtrack to this video is me playing guitar, bass, and a small amount of keyboard. Thanks for listening. Here's a quote from Nicolas Slonimsky's autobiography concerning the Thesaurus: "Parallel with my exploration of musical exotica, an idea began to form in my restless mind: whether an entirely new taxonomy of scales and melodic patterns could not be formed outside major and minor modalities." -Perfect Pitch, p. 166 I have written four guitar instructional books, but only two are currently available to the public (links below).

Back in 2009, an elderly gentleman in my community contacted me about putting together a book (he'd heard I was a wannabe writer). He had written quite a few articles on knives (plus other related topics) and said he'd like to collect them into a manual and try to sell it. He gave me a binder full of his material and I agreed to consider it. That evening I perused all of his articles, which looked promising and interesting, and I confirmed that the unifying theme was his love of making various styles of primitive knives. I told him I would help him, although it would require a large amount of work on my part. I had to rewrite large sections of his material (which he gave me permission to do), plus I had to take many pictures of his knives for inclusion in the book, and I had to do additional research to fill out his articles into more substantial chapters. Of course I also had to type up everything and format it into a reasonably coherent book. The result was the "Primitive Knife Manual," which you can find here: https://tinyurl.com/yyhoc28g I think it's a decent paperback book. I'm not a knife expert, so I can't really answer any technical questions about the material inside of the manual, and the primary author (the elderly gentleman who contacted me) passed away in 2016. But if you are interested in knives (plus related topics), I hope you will check out the Primitive Knife Manual and hopefully obtain some useful information from reading it. Thanks for your interest.
