This poem is inspired by recent research, which has found that carrion crows can spontaneously detect geometric regularity - like right angles and symmetry – just like humans.

In this episode, Dr Tom Crawford talks with Nicola Woodford-Smith about the projects he is involved in that help promote a culture of enthusiasm and joy around mathematics. Be prepared to hear of Tom's maths tattoos, his latest TED talk theme involving teaching maths using video games and just how he got the reputation of being the 'naked mathematician'!

Title: "Walls of Silence"
*(A rallying cry against techno-fascism and societal fragmentation – 14 verses, 3 bridges, chorus, outro)*

Verse 1
Pixels flash like warning signs,
algorithms draw the lines.
Artists mute their bleeding hearts,
while the future falls apart.

Verse 2
Scientists speak in tongues unknown,
buried deep in data zones.
Mathematicians trace the end,
but who’s left to comprehend?

Chorus
We’re building walls of silence,
stone by stone, lie by lie.
Hands are full but empty-minded,
while the fire climbs the sky.

Verse 3
Poets trade their pens for screens,
dancing ghosts in dying dreams.
Musicians scream in perfect tune—
no one hears beyond the room.

Verse 4
Historians dust the past,
whispering "This won’t last."
Yet we march, eyes wide shut,
kicking doors that stay locked.

Bridge 1
Did we forget?
The fascists don’t play fair.
They’ll code the chains,
then sell you the air.

Verse 5
Tech lords carve the world in two,
selling "freedom" shaped like glue.
Stick to your lane, stay small, stay neat—
collaborate? Admit defeat.

Verse 6
Biologists chart the plague,
while painters bleed on barricades.
Same war, a thousand fronts,
but all we chant is "Look at me!"

Chorus
We’re building walls of silence...

Bridge 2
I see your genius,
you see my scars.
What if we fought
under one flag?

Verse 7
The mathematicians know the score:
Divide us, and we all lose more.
Yet culture’s sliced to niche desires—
branded sparks, no shared fire.

Verse 8
Teachers, hackers, architects,
all colliding, none connect.
Gardens rot when walls are high,
still we tweet "At least I tried."

Bridge 3
The fascists laugh,
their nets are cast.
While we debate,
they’re learning fast.

Chorus (x2)
We’re building walls of silence...

Outro
No hope in solo revolutions,
just dust and noise and absolution.
The only script we’ve left to write?
Unite. Or lose the light.

Wall of silence

(Verse 1)
In the dawn of time, when the void was spun,
Al'un devint deux—now the dance had begun.
A flash, a spark, from the quantum sea,
Hadrons took form in symmetry.

(Chorus)
Oh, collide now, neutron and positon bright,
Tangled in forces, splitting the light.
Algebra sings where the particles play,
One became two, and two slipped away...

(Verse 2)
The proton laughed with its quark-tied grace,
While mesons twirled through spacetime’s embrace.
Feynman’s diagrams, bold and precise,
Drew love in the margins of infinite dice.

(Chorus)
Oh, collide now, neutron and positon bright,
Tangled in forces, splitting the light.
Algebra sings where the particles play,
One became two, and two slipped away...

(Bridge – Whispered, like a theorem’s ghost)
"Group theory hums in the deep, dark core,
A Lie algebra knocks at the door...
The universe writes in a cryptic hand,
But Roland once swore— it all came from sand.**"

(Outro – Slow, fading)
So I’ll sing this tune to the void’s reply,
Of hadrons that live and particles that die.
If Al'un was One, then Two is the key...
But the math leaves a shadow— and the shadow is me.

The artist Brook Tate, talks with Nicola Woodford-Smith about his recent discovery of how colours and shapes can help unlock the key to learning the fundamentals of mathematics. Brook shares how he made this discovery and where in the world he has been sharing his creative practice.

Bruno Reddy OBE and Nicola Woodford-Smith share their love of maths education throughout this episode. The founder of Times Table Rock Stars shares how the idea became reality in turning young learners into rock legends via learning their times tables, and how this incredible platform has changed the learning into such fun for so many.

A first draft attempt to convert the logistic map bifurcation diagram to sound.  The logistics map is f(x)=4Ax(1-x) where A is a real parameter between 0 and 1.  In this draft, the value of A is associated with time: as time goes forward, A ranges from 0.65 to 1 (in general for the logistics map it is reasonable to consider A from 0 to 1, but the sound is very simple and changes slow for A less than 0.65, so I've left that out).  For each A value, many x values are chosen and many iterations of f(x) are applied; the end result is used to calculate a frequency (linearly determined between 100 and 4100 hz) for a sound event at the time corresponding to the A value.

I am learning to use Reason and asked Claude to write a mathematically dense drum track for me to practice with. I loaded the MIDI into reason, created a bunch of instruments, added some more tracks and got this. I think it kinda works, depending on what you are going for.

Learning to use Reason. Claude did the maths, I made it sound pretty.

Welcome to Mathematics: In Sound Only!

This is the first of a series of programs attempting to explore some mathematical concepts, and even try to prove some of them, using nothing but sound.

In this first program we explore logarithms, a powerful concept that can unlock an understanding of growth in a truly enormous variety of contexts.

Script, music, sound effects and narration by Andrew Wyld.

Mathematics: In Sound Only! Episode 1: Logarithms #SoME2025

A free-form and free-time mini-modular mix making music minus many musical morals. 

Made on the fly with the Bastl Kastle v1.5, Kastle Arp & Kastle Drum with plenty of patching and cross-patching.

Reverb added to the Arp during recording and then further effects added in the mix. Am getting closer to finding that key of H.
