Since childhood, the composer Peter Michael Hamel has been embedded in a musical environment. Here he describes a new experience leading to some new insight when he was confronted with some results in brain science. Although he has always been interested in the scientific basis of sound and music, certain characteristics of temporal information processing in the brain were new to him. In particular, the time window of some 3 s fascinated him. As an immediate reaction, he decided to compose a string quartet, which he called The Time Frame. This time window, which is an anthropological universal, provides an operative basis for effortless communication, empathic relationships to others, and it is the brain's way to integrate continuity and simultaneity of what is experienced in a complementary mode. This time window is also a temporal platform for self‐awareness. This suggests a reflection of the concept of the “self” as it has been conceived since antiquity and in different cultural environments. This reflection has motivated the title of his report, “Through the Self to Music.” This appears to be contradictory to the internationally well‐received title of his book, Through Music to the Self. However, it can be interpreted as complementary. As the composer says: the “self” is a creative starting point for composing and listening “in” time windows.

从自我到音乐:以自我为创作基础的时间框架

从小开始,作曲家彼得·迈克尔·哈默尔(Peter Michael Hamel)便融入了音乐环境。在这里,他描述了一种新的经历,当他面对脑科学方面的一些成果时,这会带来一些新的见解。尽管他一直对声音和音乐的科学基础感兴趣,但大脑中时态信息处理的某些特征对他来说却是新事物。特别是大约3秒钟的时间窗口使他着迷。作为立即反应,他决定创作一个弦乐四重奏,他称之为《时限》。这个时间窗口是人类学上的普遍现象,它为轻松交流,与他人的同理关系提供了可操作的基础,并且是大脑以互补方式整合所经历的连续性和同时性的一种方式。这个时间窗口也是自我意识的时间平台。这表明对自古以来在不同文化环境中所构想的“自我”概念的反映。这种思考激发了他的报告的标题“通过音乐自我”。这似乎与他的著作《通过音乐到自我》在国际上广为接受的标题相矛盾。。但是,它可以解释为互补的。正如作曲家所说:“自我”是创作和聆听“时间窗”的创造性起点。
