In your blog post on "the shadow lurking behind every genius," I delved into the influences behind great composers' output, but you might have omitted a few noteworthy figures. While Arnold Schoenberg is widely recognized as the inventor of the series system in the early 1920s, it's essential to question whether he was truly the only one to devise chromatic methodology. Have you ever heard of Josef Hauer? Interestingly, Josef Hauer was a composer who also explored the concept of twelve-tone composition around the same time as Schoenberg. In fact, the last movement of Arnold Schönberg's Fünf Klavierstücke, Opus 23 (1923) marked the first instance of his 'Method of Composing with Twelve Tones which are related only with one another.' This method, known as serialism or dodecaphonic music, is significantly different from previous compositions because it exclusively employs a set of twelve different tones, avoiding repetition within the series and encompassing
Title: Unraveling Time Travel: Possibilities, Challenges, and the Path Forward The notion of a time machine may seem like an implausible sci-fi concept, but according to Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity, real-life time travel holds more substance than we might imagine. While traveling forward in time is theoretically possible, journeying to the past remains a more enigmatic endeavor. Astrophysicist Eric W. Davis explores the potential of wormholes as conduits for time travel, a fascinating prospect yet beset with complexities. The challenge lies in reconciling general relativity and quantum theory to develop a quantum theory of gravity, a crucial step towards unveiling the secrets of time travel. Delve into the tantalising possibilities, intriguing challenges, and the road ahead in our quest to comprehend the mysteries of time. Wormhole Is Best Bet for Time Machine, Astrophysicist Says
