Very freaking interesting, Romy.
Way back when acid was still legal, I was "peaking" on some of Sandos' finest just as Beethoven 9 chorus came on the crappy KLH portable record player/hi-fi, while I was studying, trying to figure out differential calculus, which I was struggling with at the time. To make a short-ish story short, the math "fused" with the music, I was totally overwhelmed and engulfed, and the whole thing "became clear" to me. I went on to ace a narative problem set in the calc comprehensives, and I still love B9; but not like that.
Subsequent experiments yielded various results, some of them related to the "melded" Music experience. What I "took away" from all this is mostly too personal to share briefly -if at all - but I do know for certain that there are lots of ways to gather experience, including the "heightened awareness" methods, and a person can indeed train himself to "shift" awareness, for whatever it's worth, "worth" being the subject of another conversation.
Truth and Method, anyone?
