A Geometry of Music in Strudel.

I know the formatting is fucked i will fix it later...

The following are notes from my studying the book "A geometry of music" via Strudel.

Zero midi is C (but like a crazy low c).

$: note("0 c").sound("piano")

Midi number increments correspond to one semitone (half a note).

Therefore, every even midi note is a "whole note" (A, B C).

And every 2 × 8 = 16 increments is a whole octave.

» Every multiple of 16 is a C.

» if note % 12 === 2 then it's a D and so on.

little proof that I got my conversions right:

$: note("c4 60") // these are the same note$: note("50 52").sound("piano") // D, E
Melodies tend to move by short distances from note to note.

Small movements sound melodic:note("[a b] [c b] [a -]")
