I have very little skill when it comes to math beyond all the elementary level operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, mean, mode, etc) and a vague grasp of statistics, what a graph is, and algebra.
I'm a writer at heart, and noticed a few discussions online about 1/f wave patterns or "pink noise." As much as I tried to comprehend the maths, the subject is over my head
What I want to do is structure the beats of my text to produce a more pleasant experience that helps hold reader attention using natural mathematical rhythms as a guidelines.
Would someone write up a set of steps, or pseudo-code explaining how the relations of intervals between points on a number line produce 1/f "pink noise"?
Sound is "pink" if the volume decreases by roughly 10 dB every time the frequency is multiplied by 10. So if the volume at 131 Hz (low C) is 40 dB, the volume should be 30 dB at 1310 Hz (E above high C, two octaves above middle C).
You can break this into smaller pieces, if convenient. For example, if you increase the frequency by 50% the volume should decrease by 1.76 dB.
