Quantum music is the concept that recorded sound may have intrinsic musical timbre and fine structure elements which have a quantum mechanical definition, i.e. good music carries rich, deep, evocative or haunting effects that are created and projected by control over the forcon particles and their compounded energy waves, wavelets, wavoids, wavons, and photons which build music. In other words, some musical effects may have thermosymmetric interplay which gives the listener relativistic quantum effects that transform types of listeners' personal energy in tune with the listener's mood.

I like Jaron Lanier & DJ Spooky, but from this description I can't tell if this is yet another case, of musicians using some external science as a metaphor for something they are doing musically, or if there is actually some direct scientific connection. I am all for either a real or symbolic connection as long as the proponents acknowledge that directly, but From what is presented, it sounds more like a weak connection between Quantum Mechanics and music.

Quantum mechanics intersects music by wave events, and does so in the relative quantum topological atomic function as a spectrum of nuclear radiation of force fields, with valid joule values, along a scale of rising orders of differential rates of nuclear transform of mass to energy by the Einstein equation [ e = m(c^2) ]. Those events match those of the musical scale of notes with melody.
The analogy deserves expansion, since music has vivid tones which should be due to quantum effect symmetry mirror imagery with the scale of varieton output. Those forcons develop intricon (Y-shaped strings) compounds which spin and crystallize to wider coral-fan diskons as the atom's quantum symmetry field number advances during each [ Nhu = e/h ] pulsation cycle. Intense, smooth musical performance could be due to symmetry with the atomic level of symmetry progressions as force builds toward h-bar output and natural superworkon states of crystalons.
