On Repeat: How Music Plays the Mind

How Music Plays the Mind

by Elizabeth Hellmuth Margulis ...

What is it about the music you love that makes you want to hear it again? Why do we crave a "hook" that returns, again and again, within the same piece? And how does a song end up getting stuck in your head? Whether it's a motif repeated throughout a composition, a sample looped under an electronic dance beat, a passage replayed incessantly by a musician in a practice room-or an "earworm" ... Read more

The Crossing Paths of the Arts and Mathematics

by Felipe Cucker ...

Most works of art, whether illustrative, musical or literary, are created subject to a set of constraints. In many (but not all) cases, these constraints have a mathematical nature, for example, the geometric transformations governing the canons of J. S. Bach, the various projection systems used in classical painting, the catalog of symmetries found in Islamic art, or the rules concerning poetic ... Read more

Physics of the Piano

by Nicholas J. Giordano ...

Why does a piano sound like a piano? A similar question can be asked of virtually all musical instruments. A particular note-such as middle C-can be produced by a piano, a violin, a clarinet, and many other instruments, yet it is easy for even a musically untrained listener to distinguish between these different instruments. A central quest in the study of musical instruments is to understand why ... Read more

The concept of «musica mathematica*»* seeks to accurately examine the intersection of two seemingly radically different subject areas.
