differently. I will continue to have one topic per week, but I will
update throughout the week preceding it in the same thread. This
thread is titled 1-22-2010 and will contain updates from 1/15 to
1/22. This is no different than how the information was organized
before, however, now there will be more updates on progress.
The last post in the thread will be a summary of the week (what has
been the whole update previously)

implementation that Java supplies. The initial learning curve is a
lot steeper than I had originally anticipated, however, I feel that I
made good progress today.
I have been working through the following article:

In addition I have three small applications in development that all
take on aspects of the final application. One application is playing
with GUI (I decided to go with SWT), one application is dealing with
MIDI playback and reading the various information available in the
MIDI file. The last application is dealing with MIDI composition.
Right now I am trying to combine the first and last application
(playback and GUI) into one, a MIDI Jukebox that you can play a file
and skip to different parts. I believe these smaller applications
will help greatly when combining all the research into one
application.
Today I spent about 5 hours with all the research. It feels good to
really sink my teeth into the research, but it just shows that there
is a lot of work ahead of me.

project. Other school work required attention. I find that I am
having the most available time to work on this project on the weekends
when I can set aside larger chunks of time instead of 20 minutes here
and 20 minutes there.
