Get the Harmonic Minor mug.The main drive pulley of an engine; mounted on the fromt end of the crankshaft. Harmonic balancers are weighted to keep the crankshaft balance in order to reduce vibration.
Frank: The dang harmonic balancer is frozen to the crankshaft!
Allan: Probably gonna have to use a harmonic balancer puller, Frank.
Frank: Wow! They actually make those?!
Allan: Yep

Get the Harmonic convergence mug.The general tendency of people to consciously or subconsciously project their human relationships onto the conversations between instruments in a piece of music.
This concept and terminology have been developed by Trevor Baker, i.e; myself.
As the guitar solo soared in flight, Newman's mind developed a vision of a struggling warrior, dying but fighting daily to be heard, crying ever upward in the octave ranges, juxtaposed against both harmony and dissonance, to its ultimate conclusion: the breakthrough he could never reach.
When Newman disclosed his vision with his friends and colleagues, they came to the general consensus that they projected their own experiences onto music. The fact that conversations could exist between intervals and that the timbre of individual instruments characterized the dispositions of people, confirmed the paychological phenomenon known as Harmonic-Timbral Projection.

Get the Harmonic-Timbral Projection mug.Systems characterized by smooth, regular, periodic motion—like pendulums, springs, and waves. Harmonic Systems are the mathematics of oscillation, of repetition, of stable cycles. They're the simplest kind of dynamic system, the first taught in physics classes, the foundation of our intuition about how things move. Harmonic Systems assume linearity, stability, predictability—a pendulum swings the same way forever. They're beautiful, comprehensible, and almost completely unlike most real-world systems. Understanding Harmonic Systems is understanding an ideal world that rarely exists—but learning about them is the first step toward understanding more complex dynamics.
Example: "He learned about harmonic oscillators in physics—perfect pendulums swinging forever. Real pendulums eventually stopped; real systems were damped, driven, chaotic. Harmonic Systems were the ideal, not the reality. But understanding the ideal helped him understand the real—the first step into complexity."
