You get introduced to this L is nursery school, Flay - great fun, quite a Tonic
Hmm, well naturally I studied Newton at Nursery school, starting with "Opticks: or, A Treatise of the Reflexions, Refractions, Inflexions and Colours of Light." Of particular interest to us were the correlations he perceived between the colour spectrum and the musical scale. He suggested that the spectrum of seven colours was governed by the same ratios underlying music's diatonic scale. Although through class experimentation using a triangle and a prism we discredited this idea, our infant teacher encouraged us to find evidence of universal laws common to music and nature.

In summary, I used the system of which this L was a part to learn to sing with a group in nursery school. Isaac Newton who had synaesthesia, saw things differently, in this case L was indigo/blue violet.
