Acabo de terminar este libro. Debo confesar que no estoy muy seguro de lo que he leído. Quizá lo mejor sea que lo describa.
André, una persona de buena posición económica y aficionado al piano es mentalmente abducido por los Temporalistas, que son humanoides, posiblemente de una realidad alternativa. El motivo del secuestro, es, ni más ni menos, que enseñarle su teoría musical, para que la lleve a nuestro planeta.
Al comienzo del libro nos enteramos de que en esa otra realidad la gente es casi insensible al sonido en sí mismo, pero enormemente precisos en cuanto a las duraciones. Tanto es así que su lenguaje hablado admite casi cualquier contenido en vocales y consonantes siempre y cuando se respeten las duraciones adecuadas de las sílabas.
También nos enteramos que una de las profesiones más reputadas de ese mundo es la de psicólogo cognitivista. Rama del saber que es, por…

There he meets a musicologist called Jean-Philippe and an old psychologist, Herr Sch…; they teach him all they can about their musical theory and its cognitive aspects so he can transmit what he has learned to his own music culture.
Within this imaginary frame an alternative to the classical bar-rhythm theory is proposed, based on an empirical study of key phenomena of temporal discretization, including entrainment, chunking, subjective accentuation, pulsatory inertia, and temporal gap perception.
