today i had a splitting headache...not sure what brought it on, as i usually dont get them...

anyways, i left the lab at arount 2:30, relaxed then got started on the actual coding of the pitch fields stuff. things are going much easier this time around for this part of the project, and ive gotten some background information from marni about the extremities of the pitches represented in the music we are looking at... (as well as clef information). Variable field information is coded such that new staff positioning provides fully adjustable fields. for each line of music. Next step will be (finally!) looking at the output of gamera's glyph data and determining pitch centers...
