Music, as structure in time, is the opposite of confusion.

“Music’s exclusive function is to structure the flow of time and keep order in it.”
— Igor Stravinsky

I observe music as having similarities to brainwave training and these similarities offer insights important to your understanding of confusion.

Why should my observations be important to your understanding? The difference between my understanding and your understanding is what each of us does about it: I speak and you listen. In order to complete this cycle and create understanding, you must speak and I must listen. With the completion of that cycle, a new structure can take form. Without that completion, these ideas fall on fallow ground.
