Although coming up with something 'own' just by varying something
existing can be a lot of fun. I'm a very lazy beginner on the piano and
know only a handful of songs, I'm generally too lazy to learn new ones.
However, I got bored with those and started to vary the rhythm, speed,
loudness, lots of small things, and those simple songs can take on
moods between depressing and happy, without changing a single key. This
was quite a rewarding experience.
