        @Axtremus I did a double take when I listened the first time. Then I did another, and another, until I finally understood.

        I had to Take Five.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

            Depends on what you're looking at, I suppose.

            And if you can't stand that, go for every other measure.

                That was supposed to be a word play on the fact that 5/4 is commonly classified as an "odd" meter.

                  I never heard it called that! I guess I’m not odd enough.

                          My undergraduate teacher for theoretical computer science was Arnold Schönhage. And of course he taught us the Schönhage Strassen multiplication algorithm, which is way faster than Kamasutra's.

                          I remember being a little overwhelmed by the math around the FFT.

                            Of course, it should be noted that the Kamasutra more broadly deals with many aspects of love rather than to merely multiply quickly.

                                    I’ve been quite impressed by Peter Bence’s many virtuosic piano covers of popular tunes. He struck me as someone with extraordinary technique as well as extraordinary creativity. I have been wondering what his original composition would be like, and now I have come across an example:

                                    Link to video

                                    Ignore the Fibonacci thing … it may have been the inspiration at first but the music can stand apart from the (rather trivial) math just fine.

                                        I'd never heard of him.

                                        Wow. What a talent.

                                        Thanks for making me aware of him.

                                        Currently listening to "Under Pressure."
