Keenan,

I printed the 624 cell products by 4/3 as well as by 3/2 and all the responses coincide with higher cell frequencies with exactness.

Mario, why do you keep saying you have 624 cells? It sounds like you have
612 per octave.

Mike,

I studied the secondary school in a military school in Lima. There I heard for the first time about the same question. At that time, 1952, the person who asked me, now Dr. Mario Vargas Llosa, did it. In 2010 he was honored with the Nobel Prize in Literature. We were so young and he was talking about rare themes. His question was not exactly the same as yours but very similar. Of course I couldn´t respond him.

I am worried since I don´t know if you have received the seven pages of the progression.

Coming back to your question. The first pages containing the initial clues on the progression I sent you, show the particularity that in a group of 47 common fractions, working factors with values of 9/8, (9/8)^2, (9/8)^3, ....... (9/8)^6 intervene. I remarked that in my book. The participation of powers of (9/8) happened many centuries in the past and it is probable that people in those times kept the weight of 9/8 in their modest compositions. The fact that nowadays we check six powers of 9/8 in a group of 47 elements and it is also present in the progression in some manner backs the tndency of completing SIX groups of cells instead of 612 / 624. As you know, therewere cultures that used the twelve base for their numeric system. In paralell with these events, music has developed almost independently since number six works there in many ways. The numbers themselves suggest to man what can be done with them.

Would you lke to be informed on the procedure I use to detect rational / irrational numbers?

You have 612 cells per octave. Why do you keep saying 624? 624 cells gets
you to a pythagorean comma sharp of 2/1. 612 gets you to 2/1.

I still maintain that this is impossible, because of a mathematical truth called the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, and that you must be mistaken.

You said you were going to send me the list of all the cell frequencies, but I haven't received anything yet.

Theoretically, the progression is an endless set. I think what we can do is to left an empty row jusr after cell 612. Do you agree?

Did you receive the 7 pages of the progression ?

Yes, I received it.

Does your progression of cells repeat every 2/1 octave?

-Mike

🔗Mario Pizarro <piagui@...>

4/8/2012 7:41:01 PM

Mike,

If you examine the M,J,U ordaining along the pythagorean comma that works just after Cell 612 you will see the following order:MMJJ MMMM JJMM. This sequence is equal to the sequence of the first 12 cells-- From cell #1 to cell #12.

Therefore the second cycle of the progression starts on cell 612 = 2. --- The last 12 cells (Cell 613 to Cel 624) replace the first 12 cells mentioned in the former paragraph. That means that in order to continue the progression to a second cycle we couple the order that starts on Cell 13, that is MMJJ MMMM JJUU and continue the pack Cell 25 up to the new end.

I suggesr you Mike to do the operations explained above; the second end will be 4.

Mario
