may be thought of as a list of sound objects (some of which may be lists within themselves);  
made up of (for example)
the consideration of a line, or lines, or the notion of a line, for example;
(the notion of up and down;)
solid sounds, or shapes of sound;
the idea of the sound mass of the orchestra;

or listening to the same object as it changes under observation

no illustration
