Benedetti's Puzzle (mathematically impossible music)
Added 2020-04-13 06:30:03 +0000 UTCItalian mathematician Giovanni Battista Benedetti wrote several letter to the composer Cipriano de Rore, the contents of which contained several puzzles that demonstrate the issues of tuning music to pure intervals. “Comma Pump,” is the phenomenon that Benedetti describes. What is it? And why should we care??
Thanks for being Patrons, guys! I put a lot of work into this one.
