Is music the nothing from which the universe sprang? Some school administrators for whom I worked certainly treated music as a nothing.

I believe music produces patterns in the atoms and molecules of matter, including the atmosphere we breathe, that are as beautiful to see as they are to hear; only we can't normally see them. The beauty of mathematics and science is those disciplines gives people a chance to actually see the intricate beauty of music- a step beyond mere listening, taking the music traveler into immersion.

Ernst Chladni described and demonstrated a way to hint at the delicate, beautiful, intricate crystalline patterns in which all harmony immerses us.

When I first heard the recorded sound of Saturn's resonance from Voyager and Cassini, I am certain Chadni resonances are made visible in the system of Saturn's rings, curved by the tug of gravity, and on the spherical solid of its curved surface in the patterns of its weather. Saturn in essence, provides us with a visual image of what music looks like.

The music was composed using Saturn's set of pitch resonances which align with nine specific fundamentals and partials of phrygian, lydian and mixolydian modes, and was generated electronicallly as if from an ethereal Chladni tone generator, which I believe Saturn to be.

The "pitch set" comes from a rather unusual Alcubierre function. Tone density measured by observers whose 4-velocity is normal to hypertones is given.
This function describes the image of Saturn's rings as if they were frozen in a warp bubble in whose leading edge time was compressed, and in the trailing edge time is augmented by reciprocal decompression, and pitches are "leaned" from origin and toward resolution by tonal magnetism tempered by the same function. So not only do we see the visual of music in the image of the planet, but we also hear the function of the mathematics in the music. God, Whoever He is, is there.
