yes but the thing is that this was a fully articulated musical piece where
all the instruments had differents parts and there was an overall harmonic
movment...implying that it wasn't a case of beat freq's creating a
pseudo-melodic phenomenon that I was interpreting as music...it was as if
my brain was creating a musical piece on the fly as stimulated by the many
hours being in a constant noise environment...I read somewhere that there
is a psycho-acoustic term for this...does anyone have any info on this? URL
perhaps?
