Abstract: This plenary speech is meant to become a follow-up to “All-Fo(u)r or Fo(u)r-all. Why twelve ? Duodecimal systems in music and society” by me, Anker Fjeld Simonsen, AMTA'09 in the Czech Republic, which can be read like normal WSEAS books can, on librarys and so on. AS well I'll from May 1. 2009 make a website on HYPERLINK "http://www.anker-fjeld.se/"www.anker-fjeld.se for essays written in English. Here also comments can be written. The essay has the form of a hypothesis about the Assyrian-Babylonian world, the first 4 chapters of Genesis (written 500 b.C.) and the 4-all music, which is defined as the rhythmical 20ieth music, that started its dominance in 1920-er USA with upcoming of technique.
4-all is however before that an ethnic (and all-time-and-place-human) way for counting on fingers, that easy leads to the numbers twelve and fourteen, an alternative to counting 5,10.etc. on hands and feet. The combination of these ways of counting creates the Babylonian positional 60 base number system, as well as the 6 + 1 notion: the week. The logic of the numbers points to summation of ways of counting in ethnic tribes, an anthropomorph basis for the Babylonian Culture, but which research has been and can be done in the development of culture, before and after Babylon, and what impact did the Jews, Genesis, the Babylonian tower and the Babylonian prisonship have ? In the year to come I intend to become more clear about how research in the fields of assyriology, old testament and jewish theology, ethnomusicology and ethnology, especially number theory and its mystical and practical significance in ancient society, the development of the “4-all” rhythmic musical system in the ghettoes of USA and other issues, and hope to form an international or local research group that will develop the issues presented in “All-Fo(u)r or Fo(u)r-All”. In it self this theme is interesting for every man and woman. Why is life not only work, fornification and kids ? Why cults and religion ? Or music ? The 150 years birthday of Charles Darwin's “On the origin of species by means of natural selection or the preservation of favoured races in the struggle for life “ only emphasizes the specific nature of homo erectus and his history. This is only a small philosophical contribution, that you are invited to take part in.

Brief Biography of the Speaker:
Anker Fjeld Simonsen (b. 1944). As a teenager I easyly passed examens and won music competitions, and was driven by curiosity, rather than endeavour for a position in society in my studies of state and music science, while I passed examens in piano playing and music teaching at the Royal Academy in Copenhagen. 1966 – 79 I worked eagerly as a classical musician and music teacher, but an incident in a peace action in a ghetto in Copenhagen 1979 implied big social, physical and psychical problems in my life with no way back in society. In periods of order, in Poland, the Netherlands and at electronic music studios in Denmark, I worked wholeheartedly on music, but mentally I had to compensate in non-ordered periods with translations of dialectic philosophy (from 1986) and other philosophical studies. From 1999 on I in the Netherlands and France dedicated my life to autodidact studies of philosophy, specially music philosophy, and do it still. Upon return from the Netherlands I in 2004 had another incident with Danish authorities, this time upon violation of my constitutional rights as a Danish citizen. I migrated to Sweden. My artistic production consists of poetry, short stories, electronic music, tape theatre, chamber music, and most recently philosophical essays. The beauty of this essay has been the mere deduction from numbers in the Mesopotamian world, Genesis and the 4-all structure of popular American music. What is wrong? What is right? What is well known?
