Harmonic-Timbral Projection

The general tendency of people to consciously or subconsciously project their human relationships onto the conversations between instruments in a piece of music.
This concept and terminology have been developed by Trevor Baker, i.e; myself.

As the guitar solo soared in flight, Newman's mind developed a vision of a struggling warrior, dying but fighting daily to be heard, crying ever upward in the octave ranges, juxtaposed against both harmony and dissonance, to its ultimate conclusion: the breakthrough he could never reach.

When Newman disclosed his vision with his friends and colleagues, they came to the general consensus that they projected their own experiences onto music. The fact that conversations could exist between intervals and that the timbre of individual instruments characterized the dispositions of people, confirmed the paychological phenomenon known as Harmonic-Timbral Projection.

The core, unanswered paradox: If consciousness can allegedly leave the body as an "astral form" to travel and perceive remote locations, what physical or informational medium carries this perception back to the brain to be remembered? The hard problem isn't proving it happens, but explaining how it could even work without violating known physics. How does a non-physical "you" see light (which requires physical eyes and photons), hear sounds (which require air vibrations and eardrums), and then imprint those sensory details into the physical memory structures of a brain it supposedly left behind? It proposes perception utterly detached from any biological sensorium.
Example: You astral project to your friend's apartment in another city and correctly see a red coffee mug on their counter. Later, you verify it. The hard problem asks: Did your astral form have tiny, functional, ghostly retinas and optic nerves? Did light in that apartment bounce off the mug, interact with your non-physical form, and then how was that data packet uploaded to your physical hippocampus? It's the ultimate bandwidth problem for a signal with no known transmitter, receiver, or carrier wave. Skeptics call it a vivid lucid dream; proponents have no model for the information pipeline.

Ghost Production

(Noun). Specific to the EDM music scene. This refers to a piece of music that has been created by a certain artist or artists (who will not be credited), and is sold and distributed under another artist or musician's name.
Huge acts that tour consistantly now have others write 'ghost productions' for them (to keep them relevant).
