New Notation
Note notation has remained pretty much unchanged since it was first conceived. Beethoven uses the same notation as composers today and probably tomorrow. I do not think this is a problem because this allows every one who has been taught music the ability to read everything that has ever been composed. Also its universal across the world, so there is no language barrier. I do not think there is a need for a new notation, but I do believe there are better ways to show these notations. Like guitar hero I think music should move across a screen. If you look at the notation of most popular composers, its a mess. It is very easy to get lost in all the notes, and hard to get back into rhythm. Moving the notation across a screen may elevate some of these problems.
