[MD] Definitions.

[Joseph Maurer]

Hi Horse and All,

As a amateur singer (Church choir) I wonder why the octave of sound or the
color spectrum has not become a template for reality.  Sound seems to be
reality, and there is a structure called the octave with differing intervals
which seems to give some order.  Hell, even the intervals are not all equal.

Metaphysical music and color are exciting!

Joe

I think I see what you're getting at but
