The Binary Language of Music

Music has life and movement and texture. It can be dissonant or pretty, raucus or serene, crunchy or clean. Music can be powerful enough to cause a riot, or quiet enough for meditation. When the groove is right, it can cause you to bob your head or shake your hips. It can bring you back to bygone era, evoke the feel of 1930's Paris, or recall a long forgotten love.


As human beings, we are incredibly adept at making sense of an immensely complex and complicated world through our innate gift of pattern recognition. This book takes a fascinating and inspirational journey into a world where patterns, music theory, and technology merge. In it, you will learn how the simplest of all patterns, binary, and use it as a vehicle for understanding music theory.
