You too - can become a slurring, half-dead junkie staggering through life, just crack open the alcohol and drug addict’s handbook and follow the steps.
Perhaps you're already there - in which case, congratulations


Re - Music Worshippers

  1. Some are obviously music worshippers
  2. Others are not music worshippers or limited to a MacDonald class of education.
  3. Others take a different approach: its just a utility tool - and musicians are not too bright
  4. I read music - its what you do when you are too fucked and exhausted to draft critical engineering reports.
  5. and - as you may have discerned - I am no respecter of the dead

The scope of Western musical note elements and scales

The scope of Western musical note elements and scales is fundamentally limited in comparison to the vastness of mathematical applications in science, technology, and economy. Western music typically organizes sound within a framework of 12 pitches per octave divided into semitones (half steps) and whole tones, with the most common scale being the diatonic major scale consisting of seven distinct notes within an octave. This system is based on relatively simple frequency ratios (such as octave 2:1, perfect fifth 3:2), arising from physical properties of vibrating strings and human auditory perception. These relationships are elegant and mathematically neat, leading to patterns that are pleasing and harmonically stable, but the complexity stays quite constrained to intervals within an octave and their transpositions1245.

By contrast, mathematics in science and engineering extends far beyond fixed, discrete sets of elements like musical pitches. It deals with continuous quantities, multi-dimensional vectors, dynamic systems, partial differential equations, statistics, financial modeling, data analytics, and much more. The mathematical application to technology and economy encompasses abstract algebra, calculus, numerical methods, optimization, stochastic processes, and advanced computational frameworks. These areas require enormous expressive power and multi-layered complexity to model real-world phenomena, structural mechanics, signal processing, economic markets, and artificial intelligence, well beyond the simple numeric ratios of musical scales24.

Regarding simplicity of musical notation versus complexity of advanced mathematics:
  1. Musical notation codifies pitch, duration, dynamics, and articulation in a standardized symbolic system of notes on stave lines, rhythmic values, and accidentals. This system is designed for clarity and ease of human reading and performance. It is relatively limited: Western notation fundamentally represents discrete notes (fragments of pitch continuum) with a finite set of symbols, repeats patterns, and uses basic arithmetic for rhythms3. Although creative extensions exist (microtones, special articulations), it remains simpler and more constrained than mathematical languages.
  2. Advanced engineering and scientific mathematics require far richer symbolic, numerical, and logical expressiveness. Mathematical notation uses a wide array of symbols representing variables, operators, functions, sets, integrals, derivatives, matrices, and more. It supports high abstraction allowing concise expression of complex concepts (e.g., quantum states, fluid dynamics). The notation itself can be difficult to parse without specialized training, and the underlying ideas may be non-intuitive49.

hus, while the mathematical basis of Western music scales is elegant and foundational, its scope is narrow compared to the immense diversity, scale, and complexity of mathematics applied in science, technology, and economy. Musical notation simplifies auditory phenomena into a manageable symbolic system, whereas scientific mathematics demands a far more powerful and nuanced language to handle real-world complexity12349.
