Guille,

Hoping I understand you correctly I think you've made quite an interesting epistomelogical turn here. But speaking epistomelogy, it reminds me of Kant and his shuddering 'Ding an sich', the Thing in Itself, that 'something out there', also 'with us being part of it', and that we only can speak of indirectly, via our senses and brain, and that we try to explain via all kinds of fake-realities, for instance art, science, religion, philosophy and mathematics. And of course Kant is right here. At least I absolutely can't, skipping all kinds of paranormal notions, imagine myself considering, reflecting, wondering, thinking, etc., on this world without a body and brain I can do this with.

On the other hand this fake-reality helped us in the past thousands of years with our being in this reality. So it must have some merit, some adequacy. It must have something to do with reality itself, bridging the gap Kant found out.

One could also consider us human beings as a kind of speaking nature: we speak a lot about the world, lots of rubbish of course, but sometimes getting closer to the essence of things - at least we assume, we experience, we really 'know'. And well music. It easily can get underneath your skin, when you become vibe with the vibes, resonate with what is, what is going on, what it seems, but on the spot absolute reality. Take for instance 'Eine kleine Nachtmusik' by Mozart. For many maybe something dull from the past. But when listening to it, I just can't surpress the notion, feeling, deep thought, that this is a kind of universe passing by, in short, abstract, essential. This is it, thruth, reality! And it tells me more about this reality we are part of, I think at least, then for instance all the laws and constants together. That's why I think music has something to do with TOE. It gets closer. To it. To what it might be. It really is.
