I think, maybe, I need one of these, but I can't make out what it is, let alone which one I need. Wish I could actually SEE what I'm doing! Magnifier nearly useless here

I'm at a loss; don't even know what to do to fix this. I think the stress and anxiety of being responsible for your money is getting to me. And your time is at a premium. I sincerely don't know what to do now:



      Bad video card drivers!     
      -----------------------     

Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode.
This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.

Debussy, Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun (complete)



Uploaded by on Feb 1, 2012

Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun, by Claude Debussy, with an animated graphical score.
FAQ

Q: Where can I learn more about this piece?
A: Where else? Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prelude_to_the_Afternoon_of_a_Faun

Q: What do the different shapes mean?
A: The flute (which begins the piece) is shown in "walking ellipses." The woodwinds are shown with rhombi, the brass are shown with hollow elliptical "auras," the bowed strings are shown with rectangular bars (which flicker when the strings are doing tremolos), and the plucked and struck instruments (pizzicato strings, harp, and crotales) are shown with hollow rhombi that collapse.

Q: What do the colors indicate?
A: The colors are assigned by a system called "harmonic coloring" in which the twelve pitch classes, C, C-sharp, D, etc., arranged on the "circle of fifths," are mapped to twelve hues, arranged on the "color wheel." This allows you to see changes in harmony and tonality. You can read more about this here:
