The
Writing Room.
the sound of this portfolio, made playable. every note below is synthesized in your browser in real time — nothing is a recording. play the raga keyboard with your mouse or your keys, raise the tanpura drone, program a tala, and record a phrase back to yourself.
the raga keyboard · Bhairav
the tala sequencer · 8 beats
The keys map to a Bhairav-flavoured scale — Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Dha Ni and up an octave — laid across your home row (A S D F G H J K L). This is the same grammar under the ten originals in the listening room: a fixed tonic, a moving melody, a cyclic tala. Reduced-motion and touch visitors get every control; only the ambient spectrum behind the desk stands down.
