HOW TO PLAY
the string — click or drag anywhere along it. left is low, right is high.
voices — HARP plucks and lets go. CELLO and VIOLIN bow and hold. violin sings an octave above the field.
modes — SERIES walks the harmonic ladder, the string's own integers. MINOR gives two octaves of natural minor for melody.
root — the fundamental everything divides from. the drone follows it.
drone — a held floor at the root. space toggles it. pluck over it and breathe.
keys — 1–8 strike harmonics. a s d f g h j k walk the scale.
pythagoras did this with a monochord, c. 500 bc — divide a string at whole-number ratios and the consonances appear: half is the octave, two-thirds the fifth, three-quarters the fourth. harmony is arithmetic you can hear. you are playing his experiment.

a string can only vibrate in whole-number divisions of itself — halves, thirds, quarters.
the string only speaks in whole numbers. everything it says is an integer remembering how to sing.
