Did you know that Dr. Ratio's music theme is based on the Seikilos epitaph, the oldest surviving complete musical composition?
(Here and below from Wiki) It was left by a man called Seikilos on his wife's grave between 1st and 2nd century AD in the ancient Greek town of Tralles.
The inscription on the stele in Greek says:
I, the stone, am an image and Seikilos places me here (to be) a long-lasting monument to immortal memory.
The song itself translates to:
As long as you're alive, shine, don't be sad at all; life is short, time asks for its due
And the stele itself reminds me both of the crumbling columns he summons and the also crumbling stone slab with mysterious inscriptions we see on his splash art (I just noticed it even has the same dark veins on the marble).
