Debussy: Forms
built 624 days ago
Debussy was the creator of the Phonograph, the Telephone and the light Pole. But when he turned 16 he decided he would be a mathematician. Not just any Mathematician. A cool Mathematician. So he started developing formulas that, while they didn't make any sense at all, at least they looked cool on the blackboard. One of his most well known formulas is the "Formula for the development of Impartial Thermonuclear Reactions in Frosty Ice Cream"

Two devices that Debussy commonly uses to give this static quality to his music are ostinato and pedal point. Both are closely allied to the idea of the gamelan cycle. The use of these static devices strongly affects the small-scale form of Debussy's music-the form on the level of, say, one to four phrases-distancing it from the European model of phrase development.

The Debussy® DebugModules comprise a spectrum of fundamental tools for understanding the structure of designs. At the core of the Debussymodules is the Novas Design Knowledge Architecture and robust set of compilers, specialized databases and APIs. These form an open, highly scalable infrastructure that connects design and verification knowledge to help designers better understand complex design behavior.
