    I don't listen to rap often, but Eminem just won me over with his poetic pattern. I mean, just read this:
    His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
    There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
    He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready
    Amazing.

    And when beetles battle beetles in a puddle paddle battle,
    and the beetle battle puddle is a puddle in a bottle,
    they call this a tweetle beetle bottle puddle paddle battle muddle.
    And when beetles fight these battles in a bottle with their paddles,
    and the bottle's on a poodle and the poodle's eating noodles,

    The pleasure of the patterns may be a response to our fear of the dark and the unknown. When we don't know what will happen next or soon, we become anxious, agitated and angry. On the runway, your pilot announces, "There will be a delay"... an hour later, he says it again. And again an hour later. How do you feel?
    When hearing a story new to us, we work to remember and understand the details, but when the story has repeating elements not pertinent to the story, but to the telling of the story, the story is not only easier to remember, but also the listener anticipates what will be said next and is rewarded with a familiar word sound or pattern making that part of the story memorable.
    We don't remember the most interesting stories, we remember stories told in the most interesting ways. Like a folk song.
    How many miles must a man walk down before you call him a man? Many.

    • @carlvonherrlichingen-carto6985
      @carlvonherrlichingen-carto6985 8 лет назад

      The fear of the unknown may be one cause, but we feel also pleasure when an expected pattern is broken as in a good joke: Two thoughts are similiar and we think we know what will come next (=pattern), but - it doesn´t come, it comes the totally unexpected (in a good joke) but nearby idea instead.

    These are the concepts that I use to explain musical complexity. However, I usually compare it a good stand up routine, particularly those that end by referencing a concept presented earlier in the routine (which the imagery in this video nicely hints at). Do I dare compare these ideas to fractals? Yes, this is how we find the interesting patterns both in nature and our culture.

    This is English poetry. Asian poetry works also with repetition but not really with alliterations and things in this video as long as I know. French poetry works with rhymes but also by counting the syllables, lines and paragraphs, for example, a famous French play "Tartuffe" is a five acts play ONLY composed of pairs of two 12-syllables-long rhyming lines (1962 to be precise) as of many plays of this time.

    @Kazini_ 7 лет назад

    Repetition requires a sense of progression, moement, otherwise it stops being a pattern and becomes a single unending feedback of useless and already aquired information. Our perception and understanding of the concepts, the reward that new information and understanding of a pattern makes us feel and how it motivates the repetition of change in our minds is what makes them so damn pleasurable. As human beings we have a thirst for analyzing patterns and a fear of stagnation, that's what drives change and (not always to) improvement.
    Repetition doesn't mean getting the same result over and over.
    We repeat things to better understand the process and achieve the desired outcome.

    Numerator = time.
    I was skeptical.
    Is the earth 360 °? Is the rotation always 360 °?
    If it changes even by 1 °, the timing will shift.
    The reason why the pi cannot be determined is that there is growth of the earth and nature, and the molecular division of the control rods of the core is a variation or arrangement.
