Case: My qualifications come in with your statement: "... chaos as an  initial
state was transformed into order by DQ by introducing a self  similar
harmonic."  You probably aren't really implying this but it  suggests two
things to me. First that this happened, past tense,
 
Mark: Hello Case.
I'm trying to hone in on the central interest for me, so apologies if it  
looks like i'm ignoring stuff you have written. I am reading it all.
But, as you know, i'm using the GOFC and not non-linear chaos butterflies  
and stuff.
OK.
So, in a cosmogony sense, yes, i was using past tense!
Think about it? All there is, at this point of evolution, is DQ and  
unstructured value (chaos).
Nothing else at all, no energy, no mass, nothing but unstructured value  
(chaos) and DQ.
The next step involves DQ using an aspect of unstructured value (chaos) to  
point values toward structure.
This is the self similar harmonic transition.
So, now we have, DQ, unstructured value (chaos), and sq (structured  value).
In other words, chaos is pre-inorganic value.
Still OK?
Now we have our cake and we get to eat it, cos chaos is still  around...
 
Case: I think it happens
constantly it is in the very nature of  change.
 
Mark: Just as Biological sq values such as Cats and  Dogs transform Inorganic 
sq patterns for their own survival, so Inorganic  patterns transform chaos 
for their own survival, Case: 'it is in the very nature  of change.'
 
Case: Also the transformation is
never complete. Static often dissolves  in to the dynamic. As Robert Plant
put it: "When the levy breaks you got  nowhere to go."
Second it suggests that DQ actively almost intentionally does  this. I see
this as just the way it works out, unpredictable, spontaneous and  marvelous
all at the same time.
 
Mark: I can go with this.

I would love to get a sample of your guitar sound. Infinite  sustain? Zowie!
What you describe sounds a bit like those guitars Roland had  a while back
that somehow synthesised the analog notes. Is yours anything  like that?
 
Mark: Nope, the Roland 505 worked in a different way. That had a tiny pick  
up for each string, the Hex pickup, which somehow digitised the string note. 
The  guitar then became a, 'controller' which could be MIDI linked to a 
synthesiser.  The best example of a guitar synth solo i personally have ever heard is 
Brian  May on I want to break free. Excellent. Sir Steve has used a 505 allot, 
but that  Brian May solo is perfect.
The sustainer is like a reverse pick up - it electromagnetically feeds the  
strings with energy at just the right rate to keep it going without getting out 
 of hand.
I'll send you an example of Sir Steve Hackett using his Fernandes.
I could send you a copy of me using mine but why bother when a master is  
available!
Love,
Mark
