Snakus on Guitar: Palindromes

in music •  7 years ago 


The Palindromatic Nature of Western Music,
displayed by Major and Minor 3rds

There are a few mistakes, or I misspoke a few times in this video. But for the most part, it displays how you can imagine the "devils tone" as a mirror on the fret board, and play a melody using Major and minor 3rds, then play the mirror image, or palindrome of that melody. They sound very complimentary.

Here is the visualization of how these Major and Minor 3rds can be viewed as mirror images of them selves. The colored lines connected the relative mirror images.

Here is a nifty page that displays the frequency and wavelengths of each note in A4=400Hz. You can actually change the A4 and see how the various notes change.

Also, here is an image of the color spectrum found on the web.

In addition, I know my math is a little off saying that the tri-tone or "devils tone" is the half of the wave length. But here is a really nice video with an indepth explanation of how you have to use irrational numbers for tuning a piano.

Furthermore, here is a nice site that goes into Rodin number maps.

Please comment, share, ect.
Moreover, see if you can create some melody palindromes and expand upon this idea.

Thanks so much for watching,
Take care and Gob bless.

I loved the video

Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Do you play music? I forgot to mention that mirror image thing works with hamonic 6ths as well as 3rds.

Exelent the video.

Thank you for watching, cheers!

Great video!

Thanks for watching and commenting!s

Great information. Pythagoras brought forth a lot of music theory. Here is another great piece of music information on Coletrane's Circle of 5ths. Best write up on it I have found:

Pythagoras was pretty dope, from geometry to harmony. I'm all about A=432hz, but need to actually start using it. Thanks for sharing, cheers!

Interview with Aphex Twin and his tuning preference: "I’ve since gone on to learn more about this damn 440 Hz. It was a standard introduced in 1939 by western governments, so I’m very glad I trusted my instincts. Listening to that other voice is THE most important thing in creativity, whether you’re an engineer or a musician. Tesla had some important advice on listening to the thoughts from the other. One of the most important inventors ever, but we’re not taught about him in British schools. Funny that."

I totally agree that just because you can't feel the sound with your ear drum and hairs doesn't mean that you don't feel it in your bones ect. Hearing is really just feeling the air. Inaudible sounds also effect sounds we do hear. And then you get into chakra vibrations and it starts getting crazy. This is kind of interesting:

This is actually what I meant to post. But it all comes back to Pythagoras and his discoveries in harmonics. Whatever length you start with, nature has it's way of portioning things out.

That you Sir for watching!

Amazing video

Thank you kindly, hopefully more to come soon. You have a nice page, I'm following, cheers!
