Speaking as a non-musician..... Actually I think I really am one....just never had the time to keep playing ;-)
I love music and in life and work all I see are patterns and how things "fit" or could "fit"....which to me sounds a lot like what Isaac said here: -------------------------------- Like lines of code, words can be fit together in rather arbitrary and novel ways. So instead of having a solid mental model of a large system, what you have is lots of smaller mental models of an individual units in that system (a word or a component). Instead of having solid, well-known relationships between the units, their relationships are ambiguous and constantly open to interpretation or redefinition. -------------------------------- It's just like in "A Beautiful Mind" where Nash saw the patterns in encrypted documents etc. (not that I am in any way in the same league...but you get my drift). I just see it all in my head and mess with it there before writing the code. Kinda drives people nuts when I "go away" in my head for a bit and come back with a solution to a problem ;-) Happy Friday! Cheers - Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
