Music is not an accessory to the MEFI framework — it is one of its most direct expressions. Where MEFI describes resonance, compression, and coherent change across scales, music is how those same principles are experienced at a human scale.
Sound is organized frequency moving through a resonant system. When music enters the body, it propagates through tissue, fluid, and neural pathways, interacting with existing resonance rather than forcing change. Rhythm entrains timing. Harmony stabilizes internal phase relationships. Dissonance introduces controlled instability that allows reorganization.
From a MEFI perspective, music introduces coherent ΔQ — structured variation — into a living system. When that variation aligns with internal resonance, coherence increases. When it clashes, tension is felt. The response is physical first, emotional second, cognitive last.
This is why music precedes language in development, appears in every known culture, and persists even when memory or speech are compromised. It operates below symbolic thought, communicating directly with the resonance layer.
