MUSIC IS THE PLEASURE THE HUMAN MIND..

"Music is the pleasure the human mind experiences from counting without being aware that it is counting" - Gottfried Leibniz The polymath Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646-1716) proposed that the mind is a melding of accessible and inaccessible parts. As a young man, Leibniz composed three hundred Latin hexameters in one morning. He then went on to invent calculus, the binary number system, several new schools of philosophy, political theories, geological hypotheses, the basis of information technology*, an equation for kinetic energy, and the first seeds of the idea for software and hardware separation.
