Music Like Painting
Is an illusion. But is music the closest to pure feeling. Unmitigated illusion. Parmendies said that time is an illusion. Much like the recession in space is an illusion. Much like the words on the page can induce illusions. Actors pretend with grand illusions. So is music the illusion of time moving through sound? Yes. Music is the illusion of accelerating time and decelerating time. Time does move faster and slower in relation to the matter and the speed of light. But music certainly does not travel fast enough for that to happen. Much like a painting gives the illusion of the figure. The figure certainly exists but the figure is not what is on the picture plane.
