Sing Like a Mathematician
“Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.” ― Victor Hugo
Feeling inspired? Feel like singing?
Take a favorite song of yours, write some mathematical lyrics to replace the original lyrics. Then, record your voice track over an instrumental version of the song. Easy ... and fun!
(use Soundtrap or Bandlab for free online
or Audacity or Garageband or... )
