elcome to the Music Magic Interactive Channel!
ThinkQuest (the contest this site was made for) promotes the interaction of several people through the
Internet. Our Online Virtual Concert Hall certainly allows that.
However, we created this Interactive area to further our goal of creating a continually changing and
dynamic web site. Below is a list of several activities you can participate in. Good luck!
- Music Magic: CaptionMania
This area allows you to add a caption to a musical comic. The one-framed comic strip is displayed. You can create
a caption for it and add it to our database. Be a cartoonist! Or rather a captionist!
Sorry, these comics are no longer available.
- Music Magic: MIDI Composer - See List of Other People's MIDI Files
Are you the next Mozart? Have you ever tried to write or compose music? Well, this is your chance! What's more,
your musical compositions will be displayed for the world to download and listen too.
- Musical Hangman - See the List of Hangman Winners
Musical Hangman is just like the regular hangman, except musical terms are used. You get six chances - it does not
matter how long or short the term is. Terms with more than one word are attached.
- Music Magic Libs - See List of Other People's Libs
Do you remember those little fill-in-the-blank books where you filled in nouns, adjectives, verbs, etc without
knowing what the story was all about? Here it is on the web! The story has a musical touch to it.
- Music Magic: MIDI Round Robin
Instead of composing music by yourself, work with other people! You add a few notes, someone living in France adds a few
notes, someone in Bangladesh adds a few notes and so on. A round robin musical composition rink!
- Music Magic: Message Boards
There are six, yes, count them, six message boards available to for use. Ranging from discussion about
pop music to classical composers to personal musical experiences, this section is the epitome of interaction
when exchaning ideas and stories! You can also use the boards to search for classifieds in music teachers and
musical accessories.
Sorry, these message boards are no longer available.
- Music Magic: Name That Tune!
You listen to a music file and try to guess the name of it. This classic game, however, has a surprising
touch to it: the music is backwards! Submit your guess and if you're correct, your name will appear on a list
of names next week!
- Music Magic: Online Piano
This is your digital piano. All you need is a frame-enabled, javascript-allowed browser. No need to wait for
java applets to load up or long sound files to download. You can choose from over 100 different instruments!
- Music Magic: Music Playground - See List of Other People's Favorite MIDI
Have fun while you listen to more than four dozen midi files of the same songs but rendered with different instruments.
See how an oboe sounds with a banjo. Or a violin with a tuba! You can also submit your favorite midi for the world to hear. Sorry, the list of other people's favorites is not available.
- Music Magic: Personal Web Page Creator - See List of Other People's Web Pages
Just fill out a form with various questions. You also have the ability to link to your favorite graphic and music.
Then submit it and your web page is created within seconds! Your very own home on the web!
Sorry, the list of other people's pages is not available.
- Music Magic: Story Round Robin
Are you an author? Do you like to write stories? Use this Story Round Robin area to collaborate with other people
in your story writing. Similar to the MIDI Round Robin, the Story Round Robin can be used to create stories related
to music! Sorry, this round robin is not available.
- The World of Music Magic - See the List of "World of Music Magic" Winners
Play this musical RPG game. Your name is FrensyEight and something has happened to your tail. It has been stolen! Now
you are a pitiful, slow, unintelligent quarter note! You are the sport of all your friends. Go find your tail now!
Other Activities:
(applets, scripts, etc not created by TQ Team #15060, but allowed to use or link to)
- Music Magic: Learn Guitar
Tired of playing piano (perish the thought!)? Learn guitar chords with this handy javascript tool. It uses a very simple
form that changes automatically.
- Music Magic: Java MIDI Composer
Want to create more complex MIDI (music) files? Use this tool to do just that! You will be able to save it to your hard drive,
but you will not be able to publish it on the web.
- Music Magic: WavePiano
This handy Java applet allows you to see sound waves as you play a piece of music. It also serves as a Juke Box, playing
music for you to listen to and enjoy!
