Recently I went to see musical instruments section at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which I thought I would enjoy, but instead I had a same feeling I had when I went to the zoo. The instruments were trapped in this dark hall just like the animals in cages – longing to roam free. I could almost hear them scream to be played but instead were sitting there slowly falling apart. There were very few people in the section – it is located so that it is not easy to just stumble into, and probably the gloomy mood of this room keeps the regulars out.
It has been almost 25 years since I began programming in Basic on a minicomputer. I had had a successful career as a programmer and have made another one in systems management. If I discover something useful or see something interesting I write about it here. Contact me at dp@denispetrov.com
