The static between radio stations is random noise but I wouldn't call it unpredictable random thoughts Send a noteboard - 24/05/2010 02:41:34 PM
We measured the predictability of tone sequences in music by Arnold Schoenberg and Anton Webern and found the successive pitches were less predictable than random tone sequences.

How can something be less predictable than random? Doesn't random imply something which cannot be predicted?

Though in truth ... I don't hate all atonal music. Every now and then it works. The_Muted_Grimaud - 24/05/2010 06:09:04 AM 603 Views
What bothers me, since I know so little about classical music in general, is this line: soilent brad - 24/05/2010 12:23:50 AM 802 Views
