| The music and content of Divider is heavily inspired by modern and ancient philosophy and art. Therefore divider offically supports those who engage in the philosophic studies of : Epistemology, Ethics, and Metaphysics. Generally, these three main areas of philosophy can be briefly defined as the following: *Epistemology- the study of knowledge *Ethics- the study of moral decisions *Metaphysics- the study of what there has to be. Clear logical thinking is the basis for solving problems in these areas. In other words, people need to ask themselves the right questions and proceed about these questions in the clearest and most academic manner possible. Divider is about Ethics and Mathematics, Dada and Futurism, Metaphysics and Paradigm shifts, Science and irrationalism, Logic and Mysticism. |
| You would be surprized how much philosophy of mathematics has to do with music Zeno's paradox, the paradox of infinite devisibility, is especially signifigant to electronic music. Marcel Duchamp was the philosopher's artist. He used mathematics to make mechanical designs. He is also the father of Dadaism. To what degree can we divide a note it two whole parts? |

| to the left here is Kurt Godel. Godel actually proved that any attempt to axiomatically capture all the truths of mathematics will fail. It sounds complicated because it is. Godel devised an algorythm that generates a non-provable sentence in the language of mathematics; That's as brief as I can put it!! |
 |
| On the right is Immanuel Kant, author of The Critique Of Pure Reason. Kant is one of the most difficult philosophers to read. However, he is the founding father of Transcendental Idealism. We only see the world through rose colored classes, i.e., we never actually see the world outside the human perceptual framework. |
