Rhythm and Antipitch. The unequivocally hegemonic position of metaphysics over antimetachemistry at the northeast point of the intercardinal axial compass is commensurate not only with time (repetitive) over antispace (spaced), as of light over antiheat, but also, in musical terms, with rhythm over antipitch, the former of which is repetitive and the latter of which spaced, as though subject to repetitive pressures from the hegemonic element, tapping out a steady beat, ‘on high’, which may well result in fractured pitch.
