Pictures from my third instrument training flight. My instrument instructor Brian and I practice DME arcs and holding patterns over the Berryville Practice Area west of Leesburg, VA while Erin took these photos from the backseat of our DA-40 aircraft, N392MA. Also at work was the Promote Systems GPS receiver for the Nikon D90 (More info here: http://lem.cc/7 )
Harry Partch was an American composer, music theorist, and creator of musical instruments. He was also one of the first 20th-century composers in the West to work systematically with microtonal scales. He built custom-made instruments in these tunings on which to play his compositions, and described his theory and practice in his book "Genesis of a Music".
Back in the fall of 2013, I had the opportunity to visit the Partch Studio at Montclair State University in Montclair, NJ to take some photos of these fascinating instruments.
