If "all "points in space and time are connected", then would a temporal "gap" and/or its effects be unpredictable, or would there not as likely be a random(izing) effect?
Sorry for the generalization and skipping steps. Of course physical rules govern all things.  In this case, as Isaac Newton did, we need only observe the world to deduce the rules of the game.  In human history, fetishes and totems have great import, amulets with a splinter of the True Cross, etc. are held in reverence.  But why should this be so?  Possibly because a direct physical connection to something reinforces the more subtle space-time connections.  Although the rules may be arcane, I suggest one simply pay attention to how things happen in the world.  The apple falls to the ground; thus gravity attracts rather than repels. The first pressing sounds better, thus the linkages connect rather than randomize.

Maybe I should try buying some contemporary recordings of contemporary performances? Any suggestions?
I gravitate toward relatively unknown artists that press and distribute their own  CD's. Most of this is jazz and microtonal work though. For classical, I highly recommend all the vinyl from Cardas, Wilson, and Mark Levinson Records. These pressings really connect like some of the first pressings I have.
