Abstract
Despite the fact that I am a musician and composer, this is not a book about music. It is a book about “looking at numbers.” Sometimes a particular number in one of these drawings represents a particular note in a particular composition, but all the numbers here represent a particular point in some sort of logical sequence, in some system of permutations or combinations, in some network of sets and subsets.
