Today I was doing a bit of practicing at my computer while waiting for an email to be sent (I included a picture which took a while to send, because I couldn't get it in the jpg format). I was going through my favorite orchestral "short-licks" which included the FF arpeggio in Venusberg music (from Tanhauser). When I nailed the high F#, my computer monitor developed darkened vibrating vertical lines. I checked a few other notes, but none responded (except to a lessor extent the lower f#).
Is this doing damage to my monitor? (or maybe my brain?) Is my monitor in the key of F#? Has anyone experienced this?
Just wondering...and thanks for your responses.
