Is it something of the Biological Level? <snip> Hi Mary, I¹m sorry I¹m so late getting back to you, and "I don¹t know" to all your questions. A whole metaphysics based in the musical octave? WOW! Logic: Arithmetic, Algebra, Advanced Algebra, Geometry, Analytical Geometry, Calculus, Advanced Calculus, Etc. 1+1=2, 1-1=0, 0-1=-1. All the disciplines of mathematics sees 0 to be plus and minus while being neither since it is 0. Logic is breached in no definition for 0 except a starting point. Do, Re, Mi-Fa, Sol, La, Ti-Do (Double the vibrations of the first Do). 1 has to be defined for logic to be useful. Music defines. The definition is inconclusive. From 1 to 0 is 1. From 0 to -1 is -1. Why does 1-1 = 0? Why doesn¹t it= 2? Music is the harmony of the spheres and IMHO the logic of the universe, and the template for evolution. And it can be beautiful!
