Re: [analogue_systems] Re: modular synthesizer literature

Not trying to be a butt head, as they say in America, but statements such as
this in the Sound and Sound write up covering the fundementals of physics in
sound I found to be a bit foolish:

<<Pythagoras was blown away by his discovery, and placed numerology at the
heart of his philosophy. Unfortunately, he and his followers then went off
the rails a bit and tried to determine similar numerical relationships for
the periods and orbits of the five known planets, the sun and the moon, thus
giving rise to the mythical 'music of the spheres'. If they had only looked
at the very small instead of the very large (discovering Quantum Mechanics
in the process) they would have been much more successful.>>

Was he like, totally stoked?  Duuuuude, had he only looked through a
micrososcope or something dude, instead of like, gazing at the heavens. That
would have been like, totally rad, man.
