A live lecture tracing a line from Newton's colour wheel and synaesthesia to the harmony of the spheres, then showing that speeding up a polyrhythm turns it into a chord: pitch ratios and rhythm ratios are the same thing.

A mind-expanding hour that connects rhythm and harmony in a way you can actually hear.
