Experimental Composition Score
Each color represents a different instrument.
Each different shade of a color represents that instrument being used in a different way.
The hight and thickness of each line represents how long the sound lasted, its intensity or how high it went.

Response to "Experimental Music"
Any sound can be music, but not every sound is worth making into music. Sounds worth making into music would be sounds that will be appreciated. If the music is not going to be appreciated by anyone, not even the composer than it is not worth making. This is rare though for there to be no one any where that could appreciate a particular piece of music. You can pretty much always find at least one person that can relate to or like a piece of music. Therefore I almost all music is worth making because there will usually be at least one person that will be able to take something away from that music. A combination of sound that is always worth listening is sounds that have been arranged or composed, because that means so one has place these sounds together for a reason, so you mine as well give it a shot and listen to it once, even if you then decide you don't like it.

Kellogg's Special K Ad.
The ad I am re-editing is a Kellogg's Special K ad. This ad fits into the category of a "unique personal property" ad. "Unique personal property" ads make a special aspect known about their product that will make it stand out from other products like it. Kellogg's makes Special K stand out from other cereals by telling it's viewer that you can loose the extra inch of fat and watch your weight by eating Kellogg's Special K for breakfast. This ad starts out with text that reads "Introducing the Pinch". The jingle of music starts. The women proceeds to walk out of her her house onto her sunny patio carry a tray with breakfast on it. Her husband reaches out from behind his newspaper to pinch and inch of her fat, she then smiles raps her arms around him and pinches his inch of his fat. The narrator tells the viewer if you can pinch an inch of fat or more you should lose weight by eating Special K for breakfast. Throughout the whole commercial both the husband and wife have smiles on their faces, the sun is out and bright, and there is happy music playing. The advertisers have made a situation that would usually be awkward between two people, pointing out each others fat, and made it a happy and cute interaction. The ad is selling cereal but sets it apart from other cereals by saying it will make you lose weight, they are demonstrating this on a couple that does not look over weight in the least. You would think if they really wanted to prove this is for weight loss they would use a severely overweight couple, but that may give the product a bad image. The marketers of this image have thought through all these elements, because this product is not really about the importance of weight loss it is about selling this particular cereal over the one next to it at the grocery store, and making viewers think if you eat this cereal you can look cute and smily with your spouse, while your inch of fat disappears.
