Re: (is this) OT (?) : universal music, or music of the spheres

cf., http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Now_Foundation

… sounds like the kind of project they could appreciate. :P

Of course, Eno was working with generative software that would create
loops of unequal lengths such that they would only come into synchrony
on time scales beyond our reckoning — that idea is very present in his
"77 Million Paintings."
(http://longnow.org/events/02007/jun/29/77-million-paintings-brian-eno/).
And it was also a Long Now project.

Best,

Dennis

P.S. Ed, thanks for the mention of the lute connections of the Galileis!
