I read many books in my life... The three among the most impressive in science ( at least near 200 illuminating out of the ordinary books in all fields ) One is a book about Egyptology, one about linguistic , the third is about Fractal geometry in french which was the first edition , (1975) ex equo with Cantor theory i studied, but in the last decades i stumbled in 2020 on the book "Nanobrain" by Anirban Bandyopadhyay... Read this 3 parts idea from the first paragraph of the tweeter blog and try to read his tweeter as an introduction... It is not light reading and he wrote English no better than me sorry...đ But a genius he is which is not so frequent encounter....Dont judge him by his english syntax...He is not an A.I. engineer as most who are working for corporations, he is a pure scientist, all his idea are new from the ground up in artificial consciousness research (not artificial intelligence) And all his ideas are applied technology in the making (as example his fine analysis of microtubules "music" ) ...I did not encountered such a genius for sometime now ( i am old and more stupid than i was in the past then we discover less đ )... His general philosophy is completely "musical" and arithmetical metaphorically speaking ... By the way i lost my taste to read young; at 20 i discovered geniuses,( in mathematics, philosophy and mysticism from all cultures) and i never read again by only mere leisure pleasure to kill time but mostly in ectasy with new ideas and new intuition in all fields... I was more interested by someone ideas than by the field he work in ...Even phonology/phonetic can be captivating matter trust međ... Now if you read him you will discover that the cosmos is musical and even you will discover that mathematics is music more than the reverse more accepted common place fact about music being mathematical ... To be clear mathematics is musical not logical....Sorry for Bertrand Russell here , welcome Kurt Godel ... By the way forget mathematics as only mere formulas, it is contemplation of the source on the mind level... Higher it is mystical experience as such ... https://twitter.com/anirbanbandyo?lang=en  As mathematics , music is indeed a mystery; one is aimed at our mind from the universal heart, the other is aimed at our heart from the universal mind ...  «Nothing really impoertant can be proven»-- Alexander Grothendieck «Logic is useful, not meaningful»--Anonymus depressive logician «We are logical»-- Bill Gates |
For sure Bach is the greatest musical experience in my life with Indian classical music and african talking drums ...  «If its turn and roll it is musical but it is better if its speak »-- Anonymus Yoruba drummer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4oQJZ2TEVI&t=117s «Drums are talking geometry»--Anonymus mathematician  Alain Connes conference : "the music of shapes" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z52ZAPrRbqE&t=527s  Takes a look at Ginger Baker learning drums ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D6NaxgmWOp8  now check Cymatics: |
Music and art canât be reduced to digits on a page. The page that has a bunch of figures and data on it is only tangentially related to music and art as a whole. mys·ti·cism 1. belief that union with or absorption into the Deity or the absolute, or the spiritual apprehension of knowledge inaccessible to the intellect, may be attained through contemplation and self-surrender. I donât know what to make of the ideas expressed in the OP, and how a strong argument can be made that âthe mystery of sound is mysticism,â but I do know that acknowledging the experience music provides without acknowledging the intangible, immeasurable things, and/or ensconcing oneself into a rigid bubble of âscience / data, and nothing else,â is folly.   |
