  Simultaneity succession - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In music and music theory a simultaneity succession is a series of different groups of pitches or pitch classes, each of which is played at the same time as the other pitches of its group.
Thus, a simultaneity succession is a succession of simultaneities.
Simultaneity succession is a more general term than chord progression or harmonic progression: not all simultaneity successions are harmonic progressions, but most chord progressions are simultaneity successions.

 Succession - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In music or musical set theory, a succession is a series of any musical parameters including pitches, pitch classes, or simultaneities (see simultaneity succession).
Succession may be thought of as a more general term for any possible progression, as in chord progression or harmonic progression, though not all simultaneity successions are harmonic progressions.
Ecological succession refers to the often predictable series of changes in an ecological community over time after a disturbance, such as a fire, hurricane, or a small-scale disturbance such as a tree fall.

 Classics in the History of Psychology -- Wundt (1897) Section 16
Simultaneous associations made up of elements from psychical compounds may be divided into two classes: into assimilations, or associations between the elements of like compounds, and complications, or associations elements of unlike compounds.
Successive association is by no means a process that differs essentially from the two forms of simultaneous association, assimilation and complication.
The psychological difference between this and an ordinary simultaneous assimilation must be looked for in the fact that at the moment when, in the apperception of the impression, the assimilation takes place, there arise in the obscure regions of consciousness some components of the original idea which do not enter into the assimilation.

 Mind in Nature: the Interface of Science and Philosophy
Hence the succession is confused with spatial order; the duration of concomitant motions is judged erroneously from the distance covered by the moving bodies without taking into account the differences in speed; and the relation of simultaneity is not disentangled from spatial coincidence.
The relativization of simultaneity and succession has been and still is regarded as an argument against the objectivity of time and/or becoming.
This is a deeper meaning of the relativization of simultaneity, whose more correct term should be elimination of simultaneity; once we realize that the terms ‘class of simultaneous events’ and ‘instantaneous space’ are entirely synonymous, we shall also see that a negation of one implies a negation of the other.

Temporally, the word-image syntax is either one of simultaneity or one of succession.
Simultaneity of words and images predominates in the print media, when words illustrate a picture on one and the same page, but there is also simultaneity in the film, when the pictures show the actors speaking.
Succession can be found in books, when the picture follows or precedes the verbal text to which it refers on a different page.

But this change does not involve succession unless the word is taken in a new meaning on this point we have noted the agreement of science and common sense.
Thus in consciousness we find states which succeed, without being distinguished from one another; and in space simultaneities which, without succeeding, are distinguished from one another, in the sense that one has ceased to exist when the other appears.
Thus, by a real process of endosmosis we get the mixed idea of a measurable time, which is space in so far as it is homogeneity, and duration in so far as it is succession, that is to say, at bottom, the contradictory idea of succession in simultaneity.

 Music As Cognition -- A Review by Ethan A. Bayer of the Book Written by Mary Louise Serafine
Subjects were asked to discriminate between three sets of nine tones each: one set that formed an "intact" melody (as we know it in this culture), one that formed a "partly random melody" (the same nine tones, with some displaced), and one that formed a wholly "random" melody (all of the same nine tones displaced).
The cognitive capacities have not blossomed yet, but there are signs that they are budding, notable in the succession and simultaneity tasks.
The increase of success on these tasks as a function of age shows that everyday exposure to music and possibly cognitive maturation in general assists in comprehension of music.

Important to understanding the Futurists' perception and use of simultaneity is the meaning given by context to various terms associated with the discussion.
Ultimately, simultaneity in the art of the Futurists was a synthesis of scientific and philosophical thought combined with a visual and felt sense of the energy of the machine age: a concurrence of space, time, and energy.
Simultaneity was the sensation, occurring at once, of space and motion continuing over time.

Succession is to do with events coming before and after each other.
And simultaneity is to do with events - whether before, now or after - occurring at the same time, alongside each other, as it were.
Rather than call­ing these two complementary experiences 'the specious pre­sent' and 'specious succes­sion', it is better perhaps to call them, respectively, 'the ex­panded now' and 'the con­tracted Now', where 'now' with a small 'n' is the present moment of ordinary consciousness, and 'Now' with the big 'N' is the field of simul­taneity in transcendental time.

The third part of the description required the development of more complex structures, particularly since changes in the velocity of the streams would have been gratuitous unless the changes could be felt to be a consequence of the way in which the streams were combined.
This meant that simultaneities and successions of streams would have to be so closely interrelated as to be interchangeable, that is, generated from a single source.

 A. FIRST ANALOGY.
By it alone we could, therefore, never determine whether this manifold, as an object of experience, is coexistent or successive, unless it had for a foundation something fixed and permanent, of the existence of which all succession and coexistence are nothing but so many modes (modi of time).
Only in the permanent, then, are relations of time possible (for simultaneity and succession are the only relations in time); that is to say, the permanent is the substratum of our empirical representation of time itself, in which alone all determination of time is possible.
If we were to attribute succession to time itself, we should be obliged to cogitate another time, in which this succession would be possible.

Simultaneity, succession, and the regular return of simultaneity or succession, can obtain as well in sensations as in outer events.
The simultaneous perception of both sub-feelings, whether as parts of a coexistence or of a sequence, is the total feeling -- the minimum of consciousness -- and this minimum has duration.
According as two of them, a and b, go through this process simultaneously, or as one precedes or follows the other, the phases of their fading will agree or differ; and the difference will be proportional to the time-difference between their several moments of beginning.

 Cather Studies Volume 3
This simultaneous occurrence, which halts the outer linear narrative of St. Peter's life,1 also illustrates what Joseph Frank has called the "spatialization of form in a novel," a technique he illustrates with the fair scene from Flaubert's Madame Bovary, a favorite novel of Cather's and one that conceivably may have influenced her style.
This transposition of succession into simultaneity leads to the curious paradox that a piece of music, in order to be surveyed as a structural whole, must be perceived as some kind of visual image" (646-47).
The role of simultaneity in the novel is inherent to my interpretation of The Professor's House, but after reading Rosowski's article I decided to clarify here the contrast between simultaneity and linearity.

Similarly, if the child's pre-linguistic experiences are seen as consisting of experiential images, then an alteration such as the shattering of a cup must be seen as entering and being retained in the child's continuum of meanings as a cup-image and a pile-of-fragments-image.
In viewing change and alteration as observable properties, the dialectical materialists (and this confusion is not peculiar to their position) fail to distinguish between the simultaneous complex of representations in the memory of a child and the representation of a complex in a specious present.
What makes the representation of motion a representation of a succession is that it has the logical-epistemic powers of a representation of a succession.

In broad retrospect the march of technological change has appeared as a series of successive revolutionary innovations, at first affecting mechanical equipment itself, more recently transforming the arrangements by which such equipment is utilized.
Failure of workers to perform allotted functions with appropriate simultaneity, succession, and duration becomes a cumulative loss transmitted throughout the system, which applies to workers in cocatenated industries as well as to those within a single plant.
While this may mitigate the exigencies of overhead costs, it simultaneously amplifies rather than curtails the salient importance of individual workers by multiplying the deleterious consequences of their defections and increasing breakdown costs.

Simultanously combines several lines or voices of melody, distinct from the monophony featured in plainsong chant.
European sacred music (plainsong or Gregorian chant) shared the unison (each voice sings the same note, possibly in octave), linear (the principle of harmony was founded on succession, not simultaneity) features of Arabian music, although this similarity would dissolve with the development of music in Renaissance Europe.
Arnold attributes the development of Renaissance polyphony to Arabian "gloss" or compound, an adornment of melody in which a not is struck simultaneously with its fourth, fifth, or sixth.

When these events are performed on stage, their presentation in scenes will inevitably be successive while they may well be simultaneous according to the internal time frame of the play.
On the other hand, if no other indication of divergent time frames is given in the text, viewers normally automatically assume that the events and actions presented in subsequent scenes are also successive in their temporal order.

 Bergson, Henri(-Louis)
Fechner's Law, claiming to establish a calculable relation between the intensity of the stimulus and that of the corresponding sensation, was especially criticized.
Once the confusions were cleared away that confounded duration with extension, succession with simultaneity, and quality with quantity, he maintained that the objections to human liberty made in the name of scientific determinism could be seen to be baseless.
Then, in 1900, he was called to the Collège de France, the academic institution of highest prestige in all of France, where he enjoyed immense success as a lecturer.
