Exploring the relationship between music, science, and mathematics reveals profound connections in understanding perception through model-fitting. An intriguing idea suggests that the unconscious brain fits internal models to sensory data, shaping our perceived reality. This concept has far-reaching implications and can be illustrated by phenomena like the walking lights.

  22. All this can be seen as a consequence of biological natural selection Websearch e-book lucidity principles

  23. All this can be seen as a consequence of biological natural selection along with certain mathematical facts, especially combinatorial largeness. Websearch e-book lucidity principles

  24. All this can be seen as a consequence of biological natural selection along with certain mathematical facts, especially combinatorial largeness. The unconscious brain must choose the model components to fit to the incoming data from a combinatorially large number of possibilities. Websearch e-book lucidity principles

  50. Also basic to our perceptual and cognitive processes: the organic-change principle: The unconscious brain is interested in and likes to play with patterns in which some things change slightly, while others stay the same. (Another abstract idea.) And it takes us from juvenile play toward some of the deepest connections between music and mathematics. Websearch e-book lucidity principles
