I tried to pick a topic. Possible ones include:
Music and math
Baseball and math
Went to previous student�s sites:
http://www.geocities.com/michigankh/- this was a bad site
http://www.angelfire.com/music3/math3/home.html- this was a really good and
informative site
http://www.angelfire.com/il3/camera/- this is a good site but not the topic
I want to do
http://geocities.yahoo.com/home- this is a really good source for the actual
building of my site
http://geocities.yahoo.com/home- not as good as geocities.com for building my
page but it is still
a backup source if I need it
http://professional.homestead.com/~site/FeaturedSite/FeaturedSite.
ffhtml?URL=www.carmelorecordings.com- really good example of a
professional site on music
http://professional.homestead.com/~site/OurService/- good site for a profession
business to build a site but not for me
Decided on topic:
Music and math

Began research on topic
http://www.csm.astate.edu/music.html- really good site that gives lots of info
involving trigonometry and music
http://www.math.niu.edu/~rusin/papers/uses-math/music/- another good site that
gives some background information comparing math and music and the effects
they have on each other
Sent E-mail to Dave Rusin and asked for approval to use his site as a link.
My name is Sarah Sommer and I am a high school student in Illinois. I am
doing a project for Algebra II on mathematics and music. It consists of us
building a website that explains our topic in depth. I was searching
through various sites and was interested by yours. I was wondering if I
could use your site as a link from mine. Thank you very much. My site is:
http://www.geocities.com/isymjazz. I haven't started the actual building
of it yet because I'm still researching my topic. However, when it is
done, you're welcome to look at it. Thank you very much.

lots of good information that involves intervals in music and equations in
math that satisfy those intervals

Received response from Dave Rusin about using his site as a link
By all means you are welcome to make links to my site.
Good luck with your project.

Continued research on my topic
Checked out Dave Rusin�s site (http://www.math.niu.edu/~rusin/papers/uses-math/music/)
again for more information
http://www.math.washington.edu/~hillman/Entropy/infcode.html- not a very good site; it
focuses more on math and communication not math and music
http://www.unifr.ch/perso/beermi/mathandmusic.pdf- this is an essay someone wrote on
the relationship between math and music. It is really good but way too long.
