using Lilypond as a graphical drawing app

[Kieren MacMillan]

Hello all,

As a further example of what Lilypond is capable of, and how I’m pushing it — in this case, for jobs engraving other people’s music and music theory articles — consider the following Riemannian Tonnetz graph [excerpt] I just finished engraving:

Lilypond is so amazing. =)

And you, apparently. Just wow.

Kieren, you put us to shame ;-) I can’t even begin to suppose how you did
this.

Way to go,

Hey-braham!

I can’t even begin to suppose how you did this.

Actually, it was pretty simple:
1. take a couple of lines (some rotated), a couple of circled markups (note names), a couple of triangles, and a couple of arrows;
2. throw them all in a \markup \overlay block with liberal use of \translate.

=)

What would be *really* impressive would be this in a framework, where you could simply give (e.g.) the top left and bottom right coordinates for the graph, and say triangles to fill with which colour(s), and a completed Tonnetz graph would pop out automatically. That might have to wait for some "spare time" in the future…

Way to go

Thanks!
Kieren.

Hi Kieren,
Great job!
Your topic reminds me some test pages done with a C. Cardew score two years
ago:

WOW! Lilypond never ceases to amaze me.

A non-trivial detail: we’re viewing that in a browser.
Just let that sink in. =)

Thanks!
Kieren.
