Topos of Music Skill

Trit: +1 (PLUS - generator) Color: Red (#D82626)

Overview

Implements Guerino Mazzola's *Topos of Music* categorical framework:

• Forms: Types in the musical topos (Simple, Limit, Colimit, List)
• Denotators: Instances of forms (notes, chords, scores)
• Morphisms: Structure-preserving transformations
• Neo-Riemannian: PLR group operations on triads

Forms (Types)

abstract type Form end

struct SimpleForm <: Form
    name::Symbol
    module_type::Symbol  # :Z, :R, :Q
end

struct LimitForm <: Form      # Product type
    name::Symbol
    factors::Vector{Form}
end

struct ColimitForm <: Form    # Sum type
    name::Symbol
    summands::Vector{Form}
end

struct ListForm <: Form       # Powerset type
    name::Symbol
    element_form::Form
end

# Standard musical forms
const PitchForm = SimpleForm(:Pitch, :Z)
const OnsetForm = SimpleForm(:Onset, :R)
const DurationForm = SimpleForm(:Duration, :R)
const LoudnessForm = SimpleForm(:Loudness, :R)

const NoteForm = LimitForm(:Note, [PitchForm, OnsetForm, DurationForm, LoudnessForm])
const ChordForm = ListForm(:Chord, NoteForm)
const ScoreForm = ListForm(:Score, ChordForm)

Denotators (Instances)

function Note(pitch::Int, onset::Float64, duration::Float64, loudness::Float64=0.8)
    LimitDenotator(NoteForm, [
        SimpleDenotator(PitchForm, pitch),
        SimpleDenotator(OnsetForm, onset),
        SimpleDenotator(DurationForm, duration),
        SimpleDenotator(LoudnessForm, loudness)
    ])
end

function Chord(notes::Vector)
    ListDenotator(ChordForm, notes)
end

Morphisms (Transformations)

struct TranspositionMorphism <: Morphism
    semitones::Int
end

struct InversionMorphism <: Morphism
    axis::Int
end

struct RetrogradeMotion <: Morphism end

struct AugmentationMorphism <: Morphism
    factor::Float64
end

# Apply transposition
function apply(m::TranspositionMorphism, d::SimpleDenotator)
    if d.form == PitchForm
        SimpleDenotator(PitchForm, mod(d.value + m.semitones, 12))
    else
        d
    end
end

Neo-Riemannian PLR Group

const P = PLROperation(:P)  # Parallel: change third quality
const L = PLROperation(:L)  # Leading-tone exchange
const R = PLROperation(:R)  # Relative

function apply_plr(op::Symbol, triad::Vector{Int})
    root, third, fifth = triad

    if op == :P
        # Major ↔ minor
        if mod(third - root, 12) == 4
            [root, mod(third - 1, 12), fifth]
        else
            [root, mod(third + 1, 12), fifth]
        end
    elseif op == :L
        # Leading-tone exchange
        if mod(third - root, 12) == 4
            [mod(root - 1, 12), third, fifth]
        else
            [root, third, mod(fifth + 1, 12)]
        end
    elseif op == :R
        # Relative major/minor
        if mod(third - root, 12) == 4
            [root, third, mod(fifth + 2, 12)]
        else
            [mod(root - 2, 12), third, fifth]
        end
    end
end

PLR Example

C Major [0, 4, 7]
  P → c minor [0, 3, 7]
  L → e minor [11, 4, 7] → [7, 11, 4] normalized
  R → a minor [0, 4, 9] → [9, 0, 4] normalized

Gay.jl Color Integration

const NOTE_NAMES = ["C", "C#", "D", "Eb", "E", "F", "F#", "G", "G#", "A", "Bb", "B"]

function hue_to_pitch_class(hue::Float64)::Int
    mod(round(Int, hue / 30.0), 12)
end

function pitch_class_to_hue(pc::Int)::Float64
    mod(pc, 12) * 30.0 + 15.0
end

function color_to_note(color)::Int
    rgb = convert(RGB, color)
    hsl = convert(HSL, rgb)
    hue_to_pitch_class(hsl.h)
end

# CatSharp trit mapping
function pitch_class_to_trit(pc::Int)::Int
    pc = mod(pc, 12)
    if pc ∈ [0, 4, 8]      # Augmented
        return 1
    elseif pc ∈ [3, 6, 9]  # Diminished
        return 0
    else
        return -1
    end
end

Tonnetz Navigation

struct Tonnetz
    minor_third::Int   # 3 semitones
    major_third::Int   # 4 semitones
    fifth::Int         # 7 semitones
end

const STANDARD_TONNETZ = Tonnetz(3, 4, 7)

function tonnetz_neighbors(pc::Int, t::Tonnetz=STANDARD_TONNETZ)
    [
        mod(pc + t.minor_third, 12),
        mod(pc - t.minor_third, 12),
        mod(pc + t.major_third, 12),
        mod(pc - t.major_third, 12),
        mod(pc + t.fifth, 12),
        mod(pc - t.fifth, 12)
    ]
end

Klumpenhouwer Networks

struct KNet
    nodes::Vector{Int}
    arrows::Vector{Tuple{Int,Int,Symbol,Int}}  # (from, to, T/I, n)
end

function verify_knet(knet::KNet)::Bool
    for (from, to, op, n) in knet.arrows
        pc_from = knet.nodes[from]
        pc_to = knet.nodes[to]
        expected = if op == :T
            mod(pc_from + n, 12)
        else  # :I
            mod(n - pc_from, 12)
        end
        if expected != pc_to
            return false
        end
    end
    true
