Music, for me, has always been about translation-turning emotion, memory, or even abstract ideas into sound. But lately, I've been drawn to something bigger than feelings or stories: the strange world of mathematics and physics.
It started when I stumbled across the work of Aaron Lauda and others working in higher mathematics, exploring braids, categories, and topological quantum computing. At first, the ideas felt like chalkboard scribbles from another planet. But the more I read, the more I began to hear them-like patterns waiting to be turned into rhythm.
That's when I imagined the neglecton: a hypothetical particle born from neglected or forgotten mathematics. In physics, particles like the electron or photon shape our universe-but what about the particles that never made it into textbooks? What if sound could give them life?
The result is Neglecton Lexicon, the first track in a genre I'm calling Cybernetic Fusion™. It's techno at its core, but it pulls in the pulse of rave, the tension of science fiction, and the braid-like interlocking of mathematical structures. I wanted it to feel like stepping into a “quantum rave”-where probabilities dance, qubits hum, and forgotten equations finally find their voice.
Writing this track was unlike anything I've done before. Instead of sitting with an instrument and chasing melody, I started by sketching diagrams-circuits, braids, loops-and asking how those shapes could become beats. The synth lines represent braided anyons weaving through space. The bass drops are like quantum gates opening. The shimmer of high frequencies is the hum of qubits in motion.
For me, Neglecton Lexicon isn't just another song-it's the beginning of a sound that I hope can grow into something larger. Cybernetic Fusion™ is about exploring the spaces where human creativity and technological possibility overlap, where the math of the universe becomes rhythm you can dance to.
Here are the lyrics to Neglecton Lexicon:
Verse 1: Quantum Pulse
In the circuits deep, where the qubits hum,
A forgotten math, the neglected sum.
Topological dreams in a braided stream,
Neglectons rise in a quantum scheme.
Through the noise, they weave, unyielding, bold,
Global states, a story yet untold.
Ising anyons dance, in two-D planes,
Braiding paths where logic reigns.
Chorus: Neglecton Lexicon
Neglecton Lexicon, spark the core,
Unlock the gates to forevermore.
From nonsemisimple, a truth unfolds,
Quantum futures, the braid retold.
Verse 2: Braided Code
No single strand, no fragile state,
Topological qubits defy their fate.
Anyons swirl in a cosmic trance,
Swapping strings in a quantum dance.
Lauda's vision, a chalkboard's gleam,
Neglectons born from a math-born dream.
No glitch, no error, no unphysical shore,
The algorithm holds the sacred lore.
Chorus: Neglecton Lexicon
Neglecton Lexicon, spark the core,
Unlock the gates to forevermore.
From nonsemisimple, a truth unfolds,
Quantum futures, the braid retold.
Bridge: Rave of the Real
In the rave of math, where the beats collide,
Nonsemisimple truths electrify.
Like mesons dreamt in the ‘30s haze,
Neglectons carve through the quantum maze.
Stationary, still, they anchor the flow,
While anyons braid in a neon glow.
Universal gates, the code's complete,
The future pulses to this techno beat.
Verse 3: Beyond the Map
Off the grid, where the rules decay,
Neglectons guide us, they light the way.
No probabilities lost in the void,
A stable qubit, the dream deployed.
From chalk to chip, from theory to spark,
A revolution ignites in the dark.
Experimentalists chase the unseen flame,
Neglecton Lexicon-remember the name.
Chorus: Neglecton Lexicon
Neglecton Lexicon, spark the core,
Unlock the gates to forevermore.
From nonsemisimple, a truth unfolds,
Quantum futures, the braid retold.
Outro: Eternal Loop
In the quantum rave, the neglectons sing,
A braided cosmos, a universal spring.
From forgotten math to a techno dawn,
The Lexicon lives-forever on.
Drop the beat, let the qubits braid,
Neglecton Lexicon, the future's made.

This is just the first step. I'm already sketching out where the journey might go-more tracks, more mathematical inspiration, maybe even live performances where chalkboards meet dance floors.
In the meantime, I'd love to know: what do you hear in this music? Does the idea of a “quantum rave” spark something in you the way it did for me?
