— muscle innervates slowly
— slow-wave resonance enables active sensing
— beat extraction means entrainment means prediction/experience
— reminds of how experiencing large-scale slow-wave rhythms in nature strums a primordial chord and “moves” us, e.g., resonating sound of surf-crashing waves, undulating fields of grass in the wind
