  1. Fluid tuning

    Fluid tuning is a Musical tuning tuning system for the piano and hammered dulcimer . It was developed by Geoff Smith British musician Geoff Smith , a composer and musician from Brighton , England . Fluid tuning is accomplished by the addition of the microtonal tuning mechanism to the instrument. This mechanism enables the musician to alter each musical note note individually and separately by precise microtonal interval music intervals . With this design modification, the musician can choose either to leave the piano in fixed tuning , or to use the mechanism to retune any number of notes microtonally to any desired combination. The modification, therefore, allows a number of tuning layouts to be created and explored per composition, in contrast to the instrument being creatively limited to fixed tuning which is typically the culturally predominant Western world Western Chromatic scale chromatic octave . The microtonal tuning mechanism consists of a sliding bridge, a groove and buffers fitted to each note of the instrument. The bridge is in constant contact with the strings. If the musician slides the bridge along the groove to any point between the buffers, a precise microtonal interval change results.

  1. Fine-tuning

    For Tuning disambiguation Adjustment disambiguation Adjustment Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 In theoretical physics , fine tuning refers to circumstances when the parameters of a model must be adjusted very precisely in order to agree with observations. Theories requiring fine tuning are regarded as problematic in the absence of a known mechanism to explain why the parameters happen to have precisely the needed values. Explanations often invoked to resolve fine tuning problems include natural mechanisms by which the values of the parameters may be constrained to their observed values, and the anthropic principle . The necessity of fine tuning leads to various problems that do not show that the theories are incorrect, in the sense of falsifying observations, but nevertheless suggest that a piece of the story is missing. For example, the cosmological constant problem why is the cosmological constant so small? the hierarchy problem the strong CP problem , and others. An example of a fine tuning problem considered by the scientific community to have a plausible natural solution is the cosmological flatness problem , which is solved if inflationary theory is correct inflation forces the universe to become very flat, answering the question of why the universe is today observed to be flat to such a high degree.
