* what are notes?
* the foundation
* tunings & layouts
** what are notes, anyway?
* limited space & the tradeoff between complexity and range
** harmonic series as a model of complex timbres
* 2d tunings
** overtones as a model of consonance, harmony, and progression
** rational numbers as a model of intervals
** chords & the harmonic series
*** why chords are a useful but incomplete model of harmony
*** why harmonic series segments are a useful but incomplete model of chords
*** so what do we do? keep reading to find out :)
