Idea for students: Test the power of musical memory: On part of the group is given number Pi up to 40 digits just on paper to memorize in 5 Minutes. The other part of the group can listen separately to 40 digits of Pi as a melody song (the concept has to be explained). Than come back to class an do a contest writing down which group overall does remember more digits!

Tutorial for preparing your individual Pi-Song: Choose some of your favorite chords, extract number segments of Pi that fit at least with the first and the last digit of each segment onto the underlying chord, give it a individual rythm, theres your harmonic pi-Song.

Song from π (minimal): just music
