Radial Plot of Daily Music Minutes 1980 - 2011 (2012)

Radial plot of daily music minutes over the 32-year period from 1980 to 2011. Most days I manage to play some guitar and in my (neurotic?) pursuit of diary and documentation, I have tracked how many minutes I play each day. Given how much I play, I should really be a better player than I am. Perhaps if I'd taken a lesson, or paid attention... This daily data is presented with color-coding for number of minutes played. Zero-minutes days and missing days are indicated by an absence of a daily line on the graph.
