Quantum Mechanics and Avant-Garde Music Shadows of the Void

David Politzer, winner of the 2004 Nobel Prize in Physics.
"A thought-provoking, stimulating, and highly original exploration of deep metaphorical links between music and physics...Highly recommended."
Prof. Ian Stewart FRS, author, What's the Use?
"An astonishing book!"
Tristan Murail, composer and co-creator of the "spectral" technique.
Have you ever wondered about the connection between Pauli's exclusion principle and Schoenberg's dodecaphony? Or the symphonic echoes of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in the compositions of Stockhausen and Cage? This book not only poses these questions but skillfully uncovers the artistic answers, exploring interdisciplinary connections that bridge the gap between modern physics and contemporary music. Dive into philosophical discourses on time, witness the metamorphosis of Boolean algebra, bits, and qubits into musical notation, and discover the limitations of the 12-tone scale mirrored in the speed of light. The author's unique methodology offers a fresh perspective, linking the language of mathematics and physics to the creation of musical scores.
This book transcends the boundaries of physics and music, revealing the inevitable fusion of modern physics and avant-garde music in the twentieth century. Through meticulous research, the author showcases the profound impact of revolutionary ideas such as quantum physics and relativity on all aspects of life and demonstrates that modern physics and contemporary music were born not out of chance―their emergence and development were inevitable events. Delving into the historical accounts, he explores the musical endeavors of great physicists like Max Planck and Albert Einstein, unraveling the quantum entanglement of physics mirrored in the extended techniques of contemporary music and unveiling the musical universe of Werner Heisenberg through captivating personal encounters with his descendants.
Crafted for general readers and seasoned experts alike, the book maintains clarity and style, ensuring accessibility without sacrificing depth. This pioneering exploration not only draws connections between modern physics and music but also serves as a unique bridge for scientists, musicians, and the curious general audience. Requiring no formal background in physics or music, the book is a compelling read for those intrigued by the uncharted territories where science and art converge, offering a concise and illuminating journey into the shadows of the void.
