Hearing Math & Seeing Sound: The Mysteries of Music and Evolution.
From the beginning of my career, I've had strong interdisciplinary interests, blending music with science, philosophy, aesthetics, and culture to uncover the profound "why" behind sound's emotional pull—not just for scholars, but for general audiences hungry for those illuminating connections. As a pianist (retired), composer, and Professor of Music at Grand Valley State University's Frederik Meijer Honors College, I enjoy translating complex ideas into clear, engaging explanations geared toward a general, albeit inquisitive, audience. For instance, in my article "Music and Evolution: Hearing Math, Seeing Sound, and Other Unanswered Questions," I examine how our brains instinctively perceive octaves as geometric symmetries, questioning Darwinian explanations for this evolutionary trait.
