Posted by mark Q Next, by self similar, are you comparing hexachords? Are you saying that when you lay out the entire array of certain rows, you'll get something similar in some of the permutations? Please provide some background explanation of your work and findings. I'd like to grasp this better. Also, as a proponent of 12-tone thoery, do you compose 12-tone music? Do you like the results of your "self-similar" materials? Please continue.

This is a fascinating study, but I'm unclear on some things. First, the formula using i ^ n mod p: what does that mean? Is "^" a logarithm sign? If so, do you look up the integer in the log table? Are the letter variables only, or is "i" Interval and "n" Number, etc.? I hope I'm not alone in my lack of knowledge on this.
