While expressing this theory, the point I take as basis is against tonality, chromatic structures, dominant voices and chords; it was not to flatter the atonal understanding. On the contrary, my point is; It was to emphasize that music is not different from spoken language or sounds we hear in nature, deep space sounds, or inner voices of planets and stars. When I tried to express this, the first step in Vortex Music Theory, regardless of the main pattern, was to enrich the effect of expressing it together with its retrograde both in terms of polyphony and at the same time to reflect the expression "a timelessness" to the language of music as in nature and the universe.
If I will explain the main idea a little more; nature and the universe are not concerned with tonality or atonality. It expresses its own feature and structure in a timeless process. For example, when you listen to a river, you hear that the sounds do not differ as forward or backward. Or, when you listen to the inner sounds of the sun from Nasa recordings, you find a similar sound structure. However, what happens is that voices in every situation describe their inner structure, themselves, and what is happening in them. For this, by making long and detailed studies; It is understood that the sounds caused by the molecular activity tell what they say. In short, they tell their stories in a timeless process. The listener hears a hum and strangely enjoys it. When you listen to the sounds of the forest, you will hear full polyphony. It is an average hum. This hum, while describing the forest itself; we enjoy it again. In Vortex Music Theory, sound waves overlapping each other create a similar sub-humming sound. But they also hear opposing melodies in a dual "process of timelessness".
Language is unidirectional phenomenon. Points only a time in the past OR Now OR a time in the future. Art and music use the same philosophy. What if we can talk past, now and future in the same sentence? Vortex Music Theory solves that phenomenon.

The abstract art language is a combination of primitive, plain language and psychedelic expression made in the early ages.
He copied what he saw first. Then he conveyed his sense of what he saw. Then he expressed both together. Then he expressed it again with the color spree. Then he removed the object; color left. And finally reached the painting technique of the caveman.
He took the hippies out of the LSD effect and expressed them together. That's all the history of art. So he decided to go back to where he first started. The musical language was no different from this line. Because to go beyond what art philosophy can offer, to go outside could not be different for composers. There was no other way he could see...
However the reality is different. The pattern has all details in the moment. From universe to solar system; from earth life to individual. Earth life contains all species and inanimate particules such as air, water, earth, wind. Because we know no species can live without them which means all is one!
Where can we reach? A timeless moment all in one!
In addition; If you have the most super computer but you know fortran computer language. what can you program? A calculator. But if you know an object oriented language than you can program VR Box scenes which cause to question the reality.
What does it mean?
Computer is same but language is different!
Vortex Music Theory contains 2 different direction sounds.
1. Normal play. From the first note to end which means from the beginning to end. Main possible series.
2. Backward playing (Retrograde). I have re-organized the notes of the partition from end to beginning which means the last note in normal play became the first note in backward play.
2i. Corresponding wavelengths. Forward & Backward playing causes corresponding wavelength.

Vortex Music Theory indicates multidimensional polyphony. Polyphony is a type of musical texture consisting of two or more simultaneous lines of independent melody, as opposed to a musical texture with just one voice, monophony, or a texture with one dominant melodic voice accompanied by chords, homophony. Vortex Music Theory carries polyphony to advanced polyphonic level which means simultaneous multidimensional "timeless note at a point in universe".
For example, musical language of universe and earth itself has timeless texture. If we get musical language of deep space or sun or a river, wind on earth than we hear multidimensional sound. However human musical language is unidirectional which shows monodimensional understanding. 12 tones, atonal and even abstract textures can not solve that main issue in musical language.

a - first piano sound
b - second piano sound (Retrograde)
When a and b overlap they form the "c" sound pattern. Those in the same direction strengthen each other. Those in the opposite direction cause damping. hence the "d" sound model emerges. That is where I express sound "hum". However, since "d" is not dominant, it is not heard in the foreground. Our ears hear and our brains notice, of course, it can only be "a" or "b" with a focused "c" state at the conscious level or selective hearing.
3. If you would like to use Vortex techique than the problematic part is synchronization of the notes and timing of playing the instrument.
This technique gives us vortex language or bidirectional in language without time! If you hear the beginning and the end at the same time (in a moment) than time is meaningless. If you can talk (today in musical language) bidirectional than you can express both ways in a moment now & future OR past and future. Future is becoming past and past is becoming future.

Example 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWJlsUPxMoQ
One of the examples I used while trying to explain Vortex Music Theory. Here the expression is bilateral and voiced simultaneously. The hum you hear in the background is a sampled form of overlapping sound waves. Since I do not have devices to separate these sound waves, I have expressed them as an example.

Question : Can we use only 1 instrument while following vortex theory?
Answer : You can use any number of instrument for vortex music theory. However you have two partitions for each instrument so there should be two different recording OR if it is live performance than there should be two similar instrument on the stage. One plays forward and the other plays backward.
if you want to play both partitions at the same instrument at the same time than you need to transpose one of those partitions.
Example : I have transposed the backward partition and played together at the same piano at the same time.

If you would like to use vortex music theory for smyphonic orhestra than there are two possibilities.
#1 Make double the orchestra
#2 Divide instruments for forward and backward partitions.
In both cases perfect unison is a must.
Example 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0HTeptyAIU
Example 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dswFCoTIP8
(Some pencil touches may be required in the symphonic orchestra. I didn't touch any note but used Vortex Theory directly to the composition.)
* Orchestra is not playing Vortex at the same time in this example. I have recorded both plays and merged the records. A deep concentration is required for live performance and perhaps two maestro.
For rock bands the technique may create a mass, a full noise. I don't think hard rock bands can use vortex music theory if it is not a ballad song. On the other hand rock, pop etc bands have a singer. If they want to use vortex tech than there will be 2 singers; one sing the lyrics from beginning to end and the other from end to beginning. Again this may create a full noise. May be they can try...
Conclusion
We have all assumed only particles have spin direction in quantum mechanics and we can not use that principle in our daily lives. However I think we can use it in music then perhaps in our daily language in the future. "Vortex Music Theory" is a kind of chemical bond technique like Pauli principle on chemical bonding. Each electron has a different direction spinning to able to bond; otherwise impossible. New chemical bonds gives us different possibilities so I called Vortex Music Theory because this technique gives us more colorful and rich possibilities rather than static music theories. I have also added some philosophy on it and re-interpretten into time understanding. Because we all believe (but no scieintific evidence rather than swiss made clock) time flows in one direction. Now we can hear definitely time flows in two direction; from past to future and from future to past which causes "time" meaningless, useless, nonsense while listening more colorful & full rich music. Vortex Music Theory allows to reinterpret all the musical works ever made.
As a last word : enjoy :)

Notation and Instruments
We have traditional local instruments and classical instruments to make music. However instruments create the limits of our musical language. Further more any physical object can be musical instrument such as table, chain. Beyond that all species have musical language such as birds, trees, cactus, wind, sea, planets, stars etc.
All those describe to us that music is much wider than we understand. 7 notes or 12 tones are not enough to write down the musical language and transfer to others. We can not write down the notation of stones or cactus or walking or rain or wind etc. How can we write down all sounds into notation and transfer to others. Graphical notation is not enough also.
Because in physics, sound is a vibration that propagates as an acoustic wave, through a transmission medium such as a gas, liquid or solid. It has frequency, pitch, duration, impedance, loudness, tibre, pressure, velocity. We need to use correct definitions of each sound which is numbers. All those numbers easily can be calculated and used as notation. If we can not find the correct object to use than we have electronic equipments "synthesizers" to create the same sound with formulated numbers "freq+pitch+velocity+duration+impedance+pressure......." for example "20+12+50+1sec+....." or a symbol + required numbers. Notation technique should be discussed and come to a consensus point.
The only requirement is to accept those numbers and use altogether.
The reference book will not be problem to create once all of us accepted as new notation!
Maybe I can give the example of the large hadron collider at CERN for a better understanding of Vortex Music Theory or technique. Two particles collide and the resulting decays are examined at those experiments. These studies allow us to better understand and analyze the internal structure of nature. In Vortex Music Theory, the same sounds (composition) come from different directions and collide & decay. It is just like two protons coming from different directions and colliding & decaying. While CERN experiments open the doors of the quantum world to us, the vortex music theory opens the door to the world of quantum music.
