I appreciate the effort but I am unable to understand the purpose of this. As the creator says in a post here, if it is intended to be used by beginners to play music they have already heard before, can't they simply play it from memory? Why do they need to struggle reading the notation? They already know the song. I mean, what's important for a musician, at any level, is to develop an ear (or mind?) for notes and rhythm; everything else is bells and whistles. So, can't beginners simply play by learning the black and white keys and their octave ranges? If this is meant to be used to play songs previously unheard, thus by sight reading, then all music written in established notations must be mass translated to this notation. Not impossible, but just a tremendous amount of work, dare I say wasteful, overall. Investing some time to learn the existing notations instead has more ROI. When I started playing guitar in college, and got introduced to western music (I learnt Carnatic violin as a schoolboy, the notation was mainly for notes aka 'svara'), I quickly gave up trying to sight read since not only was I not a professional, it was also much simpler, and more natural, to just play instead of multitasking. Note(ha!) that I can read music, but I can't do it in real time.
