In this assignment, we watched a video of Leonard Bernstein and looked for an answer to the question of what music means. To summarize briefly, music is a sound formed by the harmonious combination of notes and sounds without any boundaries and this group of sounds can touch people's emotions and affect them, in other words, music is a very powerful way of interaction. You can listen to music just because it is good for you or you can listen to it in search of deep meanings. Thanks to this versatility, music is beautiful and this is what music means.

In Picture A, the rhythmic arrangement of cube-shaped structures creates a sense of complexity and hierarchy, with smaller cubes connecting the larger ones and enhancing the organization. This results in a dynamic yet intricate rhythm that reflects a complex order. In Picture B, the layered circular forms stand out, offering a rhythmic flow that feels simple and balanced. These circular structures provide a sense of vitality and movement, visible from all angles, creating a harmonious rhythm. While both pictures emphasize rhythm as a common feature, Picture A achieves it through a detailed and complex organization, whereas Picture B relies on the simplicity and fluidity of the circular forms to convey balance and energy.
