Music Theory Revisionist Chrome Extension Overview
Music Theory Revisionist is a Chrome extension designed to challenge the traditional understanding of music theory by replacing the term with more contextually accurate terminology. Inspired by Adam Neely's video "Music Theory and White Supremacy," this tool aims to highlight the limitations of conventional music theory, which is often rooted in the harmonic style of 18th century European musicians.
The extension automatically substitutes "music theory" with "'the harmonic style of 18th century European musicians" in text displayed in the browser. This feature encourages users to critically engage with the concepts of music theory and promotes a broader understanding of musical analysis that is not confined to a singular historical perspective.
