mapping 2nd attempt unpaitient

Hi,

I was asking some mapping questions a few day ago- for the case that my post went to the dogs
I copy and paste it below, I'am a little unpatient/would like to go on with my work..

thanks!

I have a book where every line consists of the same 14 letters:

(setq line1 (open-sequence '(schoener Witz Unbedeutend)))
-->(s c h o e n e r w i t z u n b e d e u t e n d) ;
(setq line2 (open-sequence '(er scheint unbedeutend zwo)))
-->(e r s c h e i n t u n b e d e u t e n d z w o)

;the following symbols are used:

(sort-sym< zeile2)
-->(b c d d e e e e e h i n n n o r s t t u u w z)
(find-minimal (sort-sym< zeile2))
-->(b c d e h i n o r s t u w z)

how can I map every of these symbols to a certain pitch?
I know that I can map pitches to symbols like this:

(create-tonality my-scale-notes '(f 3 f# 3 g 3 g# 3 a 3 a# 3))
; so a=f3, b=f#3, c=g3 ens.

so I need to define (b c d e h i n o r s t u w z)
;= a b c d e f g h i j k l m n

so that
-->(s c h o e n e r w i t z u n b e d e u t e n d) ;will become:
;= j b e h..
-->(e r s c h e i n t u n b e d e u t e n d z w o) ;and will become:
;= d i j b..


I can find no way to remap the symbols, or maybe I'am on the wrong track..?

Hello there,

Long shot but follow my reasoning:
If you have an "original sequence"

(in your case (find-minimal (sort-sym< zeile2))
-->(b c d e h i n o r s t u w z) , but could be any other)

that means: abcdefg, what matters in this mapping is position. So basically what you need is that the first element of your list is meant to be mapped onto a (the first letter of alphabet), the second element of your list is meant to be mapped onto the second letter of the alphabet, etc... so try to create a loopable function that retrieves that information and follows that path. I think that is the right reasoning to map something like this. probably there is an easy way to convert symbols in numbers and then back to symbols to do this more efficiently...

Hi, I'm busy with custom scom project and Mavericks update. Locate "convert" brings up Making AminoAcid Music. DNA processing is related to your language processing project. From there spot 4. Define neuron that converts 1-letter amino-acids into proper symbols. Now define your neuron in the same way. Define more advanced neurons that find out longer segments in a sentence and let these trigger some actions is certain places for variety.
