From Martin Ley
I was fascinated to learn about Markus Buehler’s use of musical structures to improve the design of materials (1 February, p 30). That set me thinking: what novel structures and materials might already lurk undetected in the huge library of musical compositions? I feel an app coming on, for hooking up a 3D printer to your hi-fi to see what comes out.
