ANIMAL-O-MUSIC

<<<From: jpff@maths.bath.ac.uk

Our cat, Mogs, has a decided preference for Mozart, and leaves the
room when we play Birtwistle. She can tolerate most of the rest of
our taste, but is decidedly uncertain about Xenakis and some of the
other electoacoustics. She likes one of my pieces which had a lot of
high freqiency sounds -- unfortunately I did not and junked it.

On the other hand I have not noticed any consonance/dissonance
preferences; perhaps I will watch more carefully.

We must make ABSOLUTELY SURE that it isn't the absolute pitch of the
music, and rather the MUSICAL INTERVALS.

Try this:

1.Take a selection of music.
2.Up sample it.
3.Time stretch it.
4.Play the cat a selection.

--Cats have a higher hearing range, thus the need for sampleing,
but since this shortens the music,
we'd need to time stretch.

Do let me know how you get on!!
