Hearing Pi!

I Can Name That Tune in 3.14159 Notes

Picture from Hometown

This is awesome: A site that sets the first 10,000 numbers of pi to music!

And how does it sound? Not bad. Kind of random. And I keep waiting for the second verse.

Ah ha ha ha ha ha! Math humor! Ah he he he he. Heh. Um.

Okay, you can kill me now.

could we multiply that music times 180/pi and convert it to degree measures for those of us who don't like radians too much? -Kelly

Actually~that was way cool!
[i chose E Major with a M7 & m7,
the obligatory A suspension]
Suspect it needs Harmony, even in a
Mystic Key...perhaps an Integral?

Oooh... the perfect convergence of music and math geekery. Now I'm thinking of all kinds of other possibilities... pi rendered in base 12? Some system that creates frequencies not necessarily part of traditional music scales?
