Ars Musica Mathematica: Connections and Relationships
Gerardo del Cerro Santamaría · SSRN Electronic Journal · 2019
The connections, similarities and relationships between music and mathematics are deep, multiple and complex, and include not only ways to mathematically express music, but also linkages and associations around matters of logic (Hofstadter, 1999); aesthetics (Kung, 2013); form, geometry and architecture (Menhinick, 2015); cosmology (James, 1995); cognition, mind and brain (Mazzola, 2018); computing (Muller, 2016); historiography and biography (Maor, 2018); research, improvisation & creativity (Schneiderman, 2011); phenomenology (del Cerro Santamaria, 2015); representation, metaphors and methods of abstraction (Rothstein, 2006), and others.
