Abstract
A system for relating electromagnetic waves to harmonic sound waves that includes a memory with logic, and a processor configured with the logic to assign one fundamental color of a color spectrum of twelve analogous colors to one of twelve fundamental tones of a musical 5th relationship, wherein the tones are represented by notes, wherein the processor is further configured with the logic to consecutively associate the remaining analogous colors to the tones.

A method for relating electromagnetic waves to harmonic sound waves, comprising the steps of:
- assigning one fundamental color of a color spectrum of twelve analogous colors to one of twelve fundamental tones of a musical 5th relationship, wherein the tones are represented by notes;
- and
- consecutively associating the remaining analogous colors to the tones.
A system for relating electromagnetic waves to harmonic sound waves, comprising:
- means for assigning one fundamental color of a color spectrum of twelve analogous colors to one of twelve fundamental tones of a musical 5th relationship, wherein the tones are represented by notes;
- and
- means for consecutively associating the remaining analogous colors to the tones.
A system for relating electromagnetic waves to harmonic sound waves, comprising:
- a memory with logic;
- and
- a processor configured with the logic to assign one fundamental color of a color spectrum of twelve analogous colors to one of twelve fundamental tones of a musical 5th relationship, wherein the tones are represented by notes, wherein the processor is further configured with the logic to consecutively associate the remaining analogous colors to the tones.
A notation system on a recordable medium, comprising:
- logic configured to display a ledger line and five staff lines and spaces between the lines and the ledger line and the lines;
- and
- logic configured to display twelve consecutive chromatic notes representing consecutive tones of a musical 5th relationship, wherein the consecutive chromatic notes are applied consecutively to the lines and spaces, wherein the twelve consecutive notes are configured with consecutive chromatic colors, wherein the colors are twelve fundamental colors representative of at least one of selected colors, chromas, and grays.
A musical instrument, comprising:
- twelve contact positions associated with twelve consecutive chromatic notes representing consecutive tones of a musical 5th relationship, wherein the twelve consecutive chromatic notes are configured with consecutive chromatic colors, wherein the colors are twelve fundamental colors representative of at least one of selected colors, chromas, and grays.
A music system, comprising:
- a notation system comprising:
- a ledger line and five staff lines and spaces between the lines and the ledger line and the lines;
- and
- twelve consecutive chromatic notes representing consecutive tones of a musical 5th relationship, wherein the consecutive chromatic notes are applied consecutively to the lines and spaces, wherein the twelve consecutive notes are configured with consecutive chromatic colors, wherein the colors are twelve fundamental colors representative of at least one of selected colors, chromas, and grays;
- and
- a musical instrument, comprising:
- twelve contact positions associated with the twelve consecutive chromatic notes representing consecutive tones of a musical 5th relationship, wherein the twelve contact positions are configured with the consecutive chromatic colors.
