    The Fibonacci numbers are a sequence of integers, typically starting with 0, 1 and continuing 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, ..., each new number being the sum of the previous two. The Fibonacci numbers, often presented in conjunction with the golden ratio, are a popular theme in culture. They have been mentioned in novels, films, television shows, and songs.

    In July 2017, in an interview with Joe Rogan, Maynard described his thoughts on the song; "...in a way a song like Lateralus with the Fibonacci thing, I feel like I kind of pulled a very pedestrian, sophomoric move by including those numbers in there because in general music is the Fi ratio. Everything that all nature, all these things we’re ...

    Fibonacci numbers are also strongly related to the golden ratio: Binet's formula expresses the n-th Fibonacci number in terms of n and the golden ratio, and implies that the ratio of two consecutive Fibonacci numbers tends to the golden ratio as n increases.

    Musical symbols are marks and symbols in musical notation that indicate various aspects of how a piece of music is to be performed. There are symbols to communicate information about many musical elements, including pitch, duration, dynamics, or articulation of musical notes; tempo, metre, form (e.g., whether sections are repeated), and details about specific playing techniques (e.g., which ...

    Fibonacci numbers and Lucas numbers have an intricate relationship with the golden ratio. In the Fibonacci sequence, each term F n {\displaystyle F_{n}} is equal to the sum of the preceding two terms F n − 1 {\displaystyle F_{n-1}} and F n − 2 {\displaystyle F_{n-2}} , starting with the base sequence ⁠ 0 , 1 {\displaystyle 0,1} ⁠ as the ...

    The attempt to structure and communicate new ways of composing and hearing music has led to musical applications of set theory, abstract algebra and number theory. While music theory has no axiomatic foundation in modern mathematics, the basis of musical sound can be described mathematically (using acoustics) and exhibits "a remarkable array of ...

    According to author Leon Harkleroad, "Some of the most misguided attempts to link music and mathematics have involved Fibonacci numbers and the related golden ratio." [61] With few exceptions, numerators for the meter signatures (over 100) in Karlheinz Stockhausen's Klavierstück IX are either Fibonacci or Lucas numbers. [62]
