I've always paid attention to the timbre of each sound and the fact that each sound emitted from a particular object is not consistent in that it won't appear to sound the same in all settings. The timbre of the sound is due in large part not to the frequency of its fundamental pitch, but the relationships of the composite pattern of pitches evoked as a culmination of factors including its material composition, the harmonic series, and the setting in which it resonates. When observed by a human, the sound produces an event with a distinct expression and that expression, when compared to a subsequent observation of seemingly identical conditions, will never yield an identical replication. The uniqueness of states of matter exists at infinite levels of abstraction away from that whereupon society focused to attempt to describe it. Though we may be consumed by some scope of analysis, the most fundamental structure of reality and its transformation likely has more in common with a symphony, the relationships of tones illustrating a nature composed of expressions. I wouldn't be surprised if the state of the world were composed of the expressions of our conscious experiences.
