thwarting time’s arrow
it seems to me that music is a way to “thwart time’s arrow” … to transcend its one-way-ness (always moving towards the future) and experience a state in which past, present, and future co-exist and interpenetrate. an everything-at-once-ness. in this sense, music, like imagination, can get around the “inviolable” laws of physics/reality.
perhaps this is a way to time travel? not on the physical plane, but through projection of consciousness into the future, the past.
