Resonant Neuron Synthesis

"A new sound generation of Jürgen Michaelis

At the beginning of the 21. century there is a clear trend in all areas of science and technology: a departure from the old cartesianic, linear and determinable world view. The new paradigmas are named complexity, order from chaos, self organisation of complex systems, networking and cooperation. A new math of complexity is under way to evolve, powered by new knowledge in biology, information technology and quantum physics.
It shows up that to capture nature by numerical mathematics is not that easy as it was thought of by the classical advocates of the mechanistic and reductionistic view. From a certain complexity onwards a system is not even the sum total of its parts but a greater whole which gains totally new attributes than its sub structures.


Also in cultural spheres of society those new thoughts push forward. Who hasn't heard about neural nets yet, which as technical pendants to the biological predecessor should teach the actually stupid, static and serial working computers the creative "thinking". Currently quite simple models are used to simulate the biological processes in neurons, axons and synapses.

Why not use these thoughts for the development of a new sound generation? A modulation path can be seen e.g. as a branch of a neural net, too. A signal can be a discrete voltage or a frequency or a sound or an oscillator. At last, the only question is in which context of time you see (and hear) those things." [link]
