If I transpose it into the key of D does it then become something?
In any case your piano needs no black keys if you are playing nothing

The composer may be anonymous, but I have it on good authority that Bo Legg recorded it.Don Kona Woods wrote:Musical Score destined to sell millions of copies.
The composer chooses to remain anonymous to protect himself from money hungry people who will be after his millions.

Yes, of course. In fact, if you're playing nothing it doesn't need the white keys either. I think you've hit on something here... a piano with no keys for someone who wants to play nothing. Maybe we could follow it up with a guitar with no strings. (I guess that's been done before... when he was a teenager John Lennon used to carry around a guitar with no strings.)David L.

Maybe we could turn out a NOTHING album. The cover would be completely blank. No, I guess that's been done before. They would call it the "White Album". Okay, so we would go one further: the cover would be transparent and there wouldn't be an album in there. Alternatively we could put a blank album in there without a hole in the middle.

A question for the ages.
Is nothing black or white?
1. Black is the absence of color (and is therefore not a color)
Explanation:
When there is no light, everything is black.
Test this out by going into a photographic dark room. There are no photons of light.
In other words, there are no photons of colors.
2. White is the blending of all colors and is a color.
Explanation:
Light appears colorless or white.
Sunlight is white light that is composed of all the colors of the spectrum.
A rainbow is proof.
You can't see the colors of sunlight except when atmospheric conditions
bend the light rays and create a rainbow.
You can also use a prism to demonstrate this.
Fact:
The sum of all the colors of light add up to white.
This is additive color theory.
This will answer then confuse the whole matter.

A black hole is something, so much of something
that it sucks up all light around it,
so it appears black even if it has all colors
sucked up together. We just can see them because they can't escape.

If anyone would like to email me at afbrookes@aol.com I'll send him a copy of my parody of Black is the Color. I'm not going to post it in this thread because it has bawdy lyrics (as do most traditional English songs) and could get the thread closed...
How much does it cost ? I'll send it for NOTHING.

If something I wrote can be interpreted two ways, and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, I meant the other one.

Socrates would debate the moral implications of nothing.
Plato would seek to define nothing.
Aristotle would seek to describe nothing.
Me, I'm still waiting on my wife to tell me what to think!

I learned it this way, Rick:Rick Collins wrote:I before e except after c, or when sounded like a as in neighbor and weigh __ still weird."I before E except after C . . . Weird?"
I before E except after C and sometimes W or Y.
Oh the anomalies of English grammar.
Great! Mission accomplished.Joe, I tried to make some sense of this, but came up with nothing.
