The Music of the Spheres

Plato had this to say about the perfect spheres he described as the soul of man, "Moreover, so much of music is as adapted to the sound of the voice and to the sense of hearing is granted to us for the sake of harmony; and harmony, which has motion akin to the revolutions of our souls (spheres), is not regarded by the intelligent votary of the Muses as given by them with a view to irrational pleasure, which is deemed to be the purpose of it in our day, but as meant to correct any discord which may have arisen in the courses of the soul (spheres), and to be our ally in bringing her into harmony and agreement with herself; and rhythm to was given to them for the same reason, on account of the irregular and graceless ways which prevail among mankind generally, and to help us against them." (Timaeus)

We will begin with the largest natural organization which is called the atomic neutron.  This theoretical structure is defined as the unknown element 163.  (Note that these structures are meant to be representational rather than physically accurate)

The atomic neutron is composed of various spheres called atomic alpha waves (helium atoms) and other variations of the atomic alpha wave.  The atomic alpha wave is composed of 4 protons in various spins which define 4 fundamental musical keys.  In this particular example the dominant key is yellow Major or the equivalent E Major (more accurately called E Overtone Major)

The proton represents yet another level of organization of spheres.

Within the proton a dominant organization takes place based on the two halves of the proton color circle.

The spheres of the dominant half represent particle alpha waves which represent a particular frequency range or musical tone.  There are 7 colors and 7 tones in the dominant half.  The 7 colors are yellow-orange, yellow, yellow-green, green, blue-green, blue, and blue-violet.  These 7 colors are the tones A, E, B, F#, C#, G#, D#.  

When the proton is in an overtone up spin these tones form the E Overtone Major key.  When the proton is in an overtone left spin these tones form the C# Overtone Minor key.  When the proton is in a down spin or right spin it forms a different type of musical key called the Max or Min key.

Now consider what all this means.  Starting with the proton there are 4 fundamental key types.  A proton can be in either an overtone or undertone rotation which means there are 8 fundamental key types.  Within the fully developed atomic proton (bismuth atom) there are 12 colors or 12 tone positions which means there are 12 fundamental musical key positions containing 8 key types for a total of 96 keys.  

When the atom moves out to the atomic electron section (the radioactive elements beyond the bismuth atom), it introduces a second set of colors or tones called anti-colors or anti-tones.  If we were looking at a keyboard, for example, the anti-tones would be found halfway between the tones.  For example, an anti-tone exists halfway between C and C#.  There are 12 anti-tones each having 8 key types for a total of 96 anti-tone keys and a grand total of 192 musical keys.  

Truly, this is the music of the spheres!
