RE: [microsound] Fibonacci in music

[david golightly <davigoli@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

No joke, I understand the rock band Tool uses the fibonacci series in one of 
their songs (hence the genre name "math rock").  ;-)  Might be an 
interesting reference if this is for a paper...

It seems that direct use of mathematical proportions is becoming quite 
common nowadays, especially when composers for the last 60-70 years have 
been so driven on using math and math-like processes to drive their 
compositions.  I've seen literally dozens of compositions that have an 
evident use of the fibonacci series or its relative, the golden section, and 
I've used it myself.  Not that I can blame them - it's quite an appealing 
proportion - but it might be starting to wear out from overuse.
