Hi
And as a first step, I will hypothesize before
I research. I first heard this tune on
the soundtrack for Cosmos and I bought the cassette tape. What I don't know would fill a bathtub. I don't know what the original music has on it and what has been added as variations on the theme.
1) What I like is...it's music.
Music is a universal math journal for our inner mind. If they ever make smart pills that really work, they'll probably have music in them. ?(:)
2) It's a slow cascade that's very non-scale.
For a while, it seems to be in a new key with every note, but not in a flustered way... a very calm, relaxed excursion away from the Earthly shores.
sincerely,
Mike
