  • What is the abridged dichotomy ?

    What is the Abridged Dichotomy between :

    the 12 tone musical system ?
    the 12 hours in a watch ?
    the 12 month's of the year ?
    the 12 jurors in a trial ?
    the 12 key's in a piano ?

    Is it the earth is orbiting on a slightly leaning evolving axis in which time, space & sound evolve by the 12 increments ?

    or is it the light of the sun & the Moon which are risen & sets by the 12 hour ?

    But then what does Sound have to do with it ? Mathematics of-course.

    Any Comments Earthlings ?

  • you're nuts.....

    but I think I like you [;)]

    William advised me to stop smoking. So I started drinking.
    How else does a fella get this far ?

    A whole lot of drinking.

  • I see this question is getting answered very quickly. I can go to sleep now.

    I'll bet Angelo will have a valid respond. When he wakes up. He has a book on everything.



    I tell you they were little green men, about yeay high. !

  • 12 apostles, 12 signs of the zodiac....

    VI has a 12 by 12 matrix [;)]
    but of course it _is_ mathematics, as discussed here spanning a bend from string theory over representation of a certain group of 2-dimensional matrices to elliptic curves.
    although i have to admit this article is somehow detached from anything ...

    AFAIK the *12* (a dozen) has its origin in the mesopotamian culture and is closely related to agriculture because the moon cycles 12 times during one cycle of the sun.

  • Zodiacs, Dodgy Herbs, Esoteric mathematical ramblings..............
    Hmm.......

    Now i get it!

    You fellows have all joined the druids, haven't you.


    You'll be advertising for vestal virgins next.

    Good Luck........... [[:|]]

    Not on everything, but all on music. A book refering to this subject and you guessing it is in my Bibliothek is:

    Die akustische Atomtheorie
    Angewandt auf das pytagoräische Tonsystem
    By Thorvald Kornerup
    Kopenhagen 1931

    English titel, (but was never translated to english)

    The Acoustic Atomtheory
    Applied on the pythagorean Tonesystem
    By Thorvald Kornerup
    Kopenhagen 1931

    And see my new thread "Dozenal Tone System & Dychotomy", where i abridge, or condense an answer.

    .

    A Ha , You're the Man '[H]' . Thats why you're the modertor, now it all makes sense.
    S4=1
    (st)6=1
    Together with
    S2-(ST)3
    Which holds because both sides describe a 180 degrees rotation. Therefore
    SL (2,z) has the inherent.

    So do you think we can get an answer from Baez ? regarding to how sound or The 12 key's coheres with the elliptical curves ?

    Perhaps we can offer a 12 Week vacation at the Irminsul with 12 vestal virgins as a bribe. '[H]'
