Abstract:


This paper presents a quantitative evaluation of Sam I Am and Green Eggs and Ham, Still through a dual axis model measuring emotional entropy (EE) and musical composition chaos to derive a Chaos Quotient (CQ). The analysis yields a Chaos Quotient (CQ) of 15.7 / 20, situating the composition in the upper right high chaos quadrant. Visual analytics—including flow diagrams, bar charts, scatter plots, and quadrant charts—support the findings. By formalizing chaos as a measurable parameter, this study contributes to emerging methodologies in experimental musicology and offers a reproducible framework for analyzing genre fused compositions.

 


Introduction:


Musical chaos arises from lyrical volatility and structural unpredictability (Meyer; Huron). By combining afrorap, neo soul, operatic interludes, and jazz improvisation, Sam C. Serey’s composition embodies high emotional entropy and structural fluidity. This study formalizes its evaluation through a dual axis framework, asking: How can chaos be quantified as a compositional parameter in hybrid musical forms?

 


Methodology:


1. Emotional Entropy (EE): Lyrical segmentation and scoring (0–10), weighted for freestyle passages.

2. Chaos Quotient (CQ): Calculated as:

[ CQ = (Weighted\ EE \times Musical\ Chaos\ Multiplier\ [MCM]) \pm Lyrical\ Modifiers]

3. Dual Axis Visualization: CQ plotted against qualitative musical chaos.

A Comparative Literature Review of Contemporary Musical Composition: Chaos, Neuroscience, and Algorithmic Art.

Abstract: This paper examines the intersections of neurocognitive research, chaos theory, and algorithmic art in contemporary musical composition. Through the analysis of Neurochaotic Creativity, Emotional Entropy, and the performative piece Samantix, it highlights how the fusion of science and art revives classical musical and literary legacies. The discussion integrates philosophical concepts such as phenomenology and postmodern aesthetics to contextualize these practices within a broader cultural framework. Introduction: Modern musical composition has increasingly turned toward interdisciplinary methods, drawing from neuroscience, computational modeling, and algorithmic performance. This intersection creates opportunities to reinterpret classical traditions while engaging with contemporary cognitive and affective paradigms (Doe, 2023; Smith & Zhao, 2024). By examining scientific and performative approaches, the present review demonstrates how composers create new avenues for cul...

A Critical Evaluation of Sam C. Serey’s Philosophical Comprehension.

Abstract: This paper evaluates Sam C. Serey’s philosophical framework, with particular attention to his concept of a “secure” philosophy. Drawing on comparative insights from Bertrand Russell, Aristotle, and modern humanistic thinkers, the analysis explores Serey’s integration of rational inquiry, ethical grounding, and practical application. The paper presents an assessment of strengths, weaknesses, and future directions for Serey’s philosophical approach. A comparative table is provided in the appendix. 1. Introduction Philosophy, as a discipline, has long wrestled with the tension between the pursuit of certainty and the acceptance of uncertainty. Sam C. Serey’s concept of a “secure” philosophy attempts to reconcile this tension by emphasizing rational analysis, ethical integrity, and the cultivation of practical habits. In this paper, Serey’s stance is critically evaluated in relation to Bertrand Russell’s epistemic skepticism, Aristotle’s virtue ethics, and modern humanistic appro...

Harmonizing Chaos: Exploring the Intersection of Chaos Theory and Classical Philosophy in Music Composition by Sam C. Serey

[Sam (spoken):] Nope, after 100 years I will be dead haha i am human after all but my Nobel Prize... Will be forevermore.. You.. Haha thats how i charm see pretty good haha. In twilight's dance, chaos and shadows entwine, Darkness meets light in a cosmic design. Yin to yang, the celestial songs proclaim, A universe bound by entropy's flame. Philosophies weave through melodic threads, Time and fate whisper where destiny treads. In laughter 'midst pain lies truth concealed well, Existence flows like a sea-bound swell. Layered voices rise with hypnotic flair, Gritty tones play in seductive air rare. Neuropsych' themes of mind’s complex embrace, Blend with sound waves in an endless chase. Thus forged is this symphonic tapestry vast, Where classic and modern styles are cast. In cosmic echoes shall melodies soar— Timeless tunes that linger forevermore. [Sam (spoken , complex analysis narrative):] This abstract research study investigates the applicatio...
