Is that supposed to be another way to deal w/ Schrodinger's cat? hehe

Anyway.. speaking of "music of primes", my csound piece called
(coincidentally enough) "Primes" uses the "rhythm" of the occurance of the
primes, uses only prime partials in the sounds and otonal and utonal scales
of prime multiples:

I think so ... the cat in this picture is clearly part way between
alive and dead. In a similar vein, if music were put in a box, and
restrained to strict 12 EDO, how long would it live? Hmm.
Frightening but not nearly as funny somehow.

Yeah, and it's COOL! The cat's meow, in a manner of speaking.
(Neither frightening nor funny, though, in case that's what rings
your bell.)
