Interesthing Sharing Week #3

Our man of the week...MOK!

He shared this week on the irresistible 4 singing horses. Click on each one of them to mix n' match your own horsey orchestra - right down to bass, tenor, alto and soprano!

On a separate note, it's a wonder how many melodies you can create with just 4 notes. Allow us to demonstrate using some simple calculations:

With 1 horse, you can create 1 melody.
With 2 horses, you can create 4 melodies. (1, 2, 1-2, 2-1)
With 3 horses, we now have 15 melodies. (1, 2, 3, 1-2, 1-3, 2-1, 2-3, 3-1, 3-2, 1-2-3, 1-3-2, 2-1-3, 2-3-1, 3-1-2, 3-2-1)

And guess how many we would have with 4 horses?

64!

With just that 1 extra horse, the amount of possible results QUADRUPLES. No prizes for guessing how much more we could get with 5, 6, 7 or even more horses!

And that's what creativity is really all about, isn't it - possibility of combinations. 1 art director might produce 10 ideas, as would a copywriter. But stick them both together in a room, and you'll have ideas bouncing off the walls in no time.

So guys and gals of CC+J Adhaus - let us never limit ourselves with what we can do! And let none of us consider ourselves less important than anyone else - if 1 of those 4 singing horses thought he wasn't such a great singer and left, we would have a lot, lot less to play with.
