"In his first monograph, Grundprobleme der Logik, Pirmin Stekeler offered a version of %22immediacy critique%22 according to which, to sum up the book's central thesis, logic does not describe or explain natural language but only constructs synoptic models to be compared with and projected onto it.

In my paper, I want to draw on some points of Stekeler's and Wittgenstein's approach to language by extending their repertoire of perspicuous representations - coming mainly from purely logical or visually controlled spaces (see, e.g., Stekeler's reconstructions of Aristotle's picture semantics and Frege's truth-functional logic or Wittgenstein's ab-notation and color-octahedron) - in an acoustical direction. The more modest part of this endeavor considers acoustical space phenomenally, aiming, basically, at the simple comparison of the traditional Newton/Goethe/Wittgenstein circle of colors with the circle of fifths of the Western tradition of tonal music, thus indicating what the musical pendant to Wittgenstein's grammar of colors would look like.
