"simple melody"

Maybe new age noodling? Even us cranky traditionalists do it sometimes.
Somewhat influenced by slow Irish airs...

Noodles taste great. Nice little tune. Was that spontaneous?

Re: "simple melody"

Are there any significant technical differentiations between noodling and doodling?  Enquiring minds want to know...

I honestly think it's a question of synesthesia (in the poetic sense, hopefully not the neurological condition)... some people play and it's like the taste of noodles or the smell. Others play and it's as if you can see them drawing in the space before your very eyes. I.e. noodling and doodling. (Am I on the right track?)

Nyokai kind of answered this question in another thread recently:

I have always thought of honkyoku as sonic calligraphy: when you memorize a piece, it is like knowing the kanji -- then when you play it, you are letting art, or spirit, flow freely through you like a calligrapher.

Doodling, indeed!
