Music

Why do we like music? Why do some sounds feel so pleasing to our ears while others don't? Why do we feel fear when we listen to dissonant sounds? Why does a low white noise sometimes feel comforting? Is it because it reminds us of the sound of background rain? Is liking music an evolutionary trait?

Questions like these have intrigued me throughout my life, and being an engineer myself, I wanted to understand the whys behind music.

That said, I started to study music theory, music production and, to some extent, sound design as well.

All of these made me realize that music is so connected to mathematics. There's even a lovely song from Boards of Canada called "Music is Math" (give it a try). I started to connect these with my passion for mathematics and physics, and all the work I've done through my civil-structural engineering degree. The foundations were mostly the same: frequencies, resonance, amplitude and Fourier transforms.

And that's how I became a musician - or more precisely, an electronic music producer. Blending math, physics, technology and programming, I started to experiment and create my own songs.
