Is this the correct answer to the riddle, Cosmic? :D

80's Canadian pop vocalists Amanda & Cassandra Di Blassi.

Inspired by the cantonese word for art, twins Amanda and Casandra DiBlasi founded Tú in the mid 80's, after being discovered by producer and former Red Rider keyboard player Steve Sexton when they appeared as extras in a music video.

Regulars in the Toronto studio scene by age 15, the twins had graduated from the Royal Conservatory Of Music and had already appeared in numerous television commercials when they started writing and recording their self titled debut in 1986 with Platinum Blonde producer Bruce Barrow, to whom they were introduced by Steve Sexton.

Released in late 1987 with RCA/BMG Music Canada, the formerly titled "Siamese Kiss" album yielded two singles, the first single being top ten hit "Stay With Me", which peaked at the 8th position in November that year. A second single, "The Language Of Love" was released in the first months of the following year, resulting in additional sales of Tú and more tour dates through-out Canada.

In 1988, the twins left RCA/BMG Music Canada and embarked on their second album, with a new label - CBS Records. Also produced by Bruce Barrow, "Secrets In The Dark" was released the following year with two moderately successful singles ; "I Used To Cry" and "Stop Breaking My Heart". This was unfortunately their last album.

Actually I needed 3 entries to have the :p appear alone so I did a little cheating.

Your answer is interesting for I've never heard about tu being a word meaning art, but now I do.

You almost tricked me, when I clicked on the smilie and there was no link, lol.... It didn't seem likely that you would not post something more, so I started digging.

Here is another fractal animation, which I found interesting.

 
@Cosmic: if only the hippies had access to realtime fractalizing bongs -er- I mean teletype machines, of course.

@Scheh: Clair de Lune was in my piano bench. For years I toyed with it, but never had the chops to pull it off.

Here's one I had more luck with, that was in the same book: :)
 
Very nice offerings, Aqua and Cosmic.

Personally, I enjoy stringed instruments and the harp is one instrument that quite transports my mind.



That's a different avatar (once again) Aqua. What does it represent? :confused:

Cosmic, I like your Cheshire cat. It makes your posts easy to find when I am doing a speed round of the forum. :)
 
I'm an oldie, though not much of a goodie. So, Zeppelin fills a bit of my pod.

Phones in. Lights off. And.
"10 yrs Gone"
"Babe, Im Gonna Leave You"

It's about the closest thing to a religious experience I'll ever get, sans physical contact.

For me, it's never the words, just the music, sorry to say, but that's what moves me.

I love you the mostest because you have my roots she , well except for maybe Chimpkin . She is special . She sees what the rest of us refuses to look at. I can't believe some of symbolism you post girl . Snap shots of my very existence.

Can you really ever escape your roots . We act the the way do for that very reason is the only conclusion I can come up with . So you got big roots dear . Let the sun shine in

I got a song special for you my dear
