Edgar Morin, godfather of the rhythm-space harmony

When I speak of complexity, I’m referring to the elementary Latin meaning of the word “complexus”, “That which is woven together”. The components are different, but we must see, as in a tapestry, the figure of the whole¹. Edgar Morin.

Edgar Morin, philosopher of the Complex Thinking, thinker of this happy and competent multi -disciplinarity that our time needs so much, eternal resistant whose courage never diminished until his 104 years, was the evident intellectual godfather for the rhythm-space harmony and my musics. Before everybody, without being afraid of my multidisciplinar profile, he recognized the validity of my researches, measures and reflections about rhythms, pulsations or time for biology, neurosciences or music, among other disciplines (see published articles), which have received several scientific confirmations since 2017,
Edgar Morin wished to meet me in 2012 after reading my essay Composition esthetics, reflections and transdisciplinary researches for the XXIst century. He then cited me several times, referring to this essay, and our ongoing conversation, from 2012 to 2026. My eternal thanks to Edgar Morin.

p81 : “Communication chimique par phéromones, par sons, par chants, par danses (abeilles). Il est très possible, comme l´a perçu la cantatrice Isabelle Sabrié pour les grenouilles, dans son jardin de Manaus en Amazonie, qu´oiseaux, chiens et autres animaux disposent, alors que nous n´entendons que sons répétitifs ou inarticulés, de vocabulaire et de syntaxe liés à un langage gestuel.”
