Midterm = 35%, final = 50%, paper = 15% Midterm = 50%, final = 35%, paper = 15% Vertical/spectral fusion (of yz) and the emergence of timbral quality. When xy is more strongly grouped melodically (due to the principle of proximity ), yz perceptual fusion is reduced (as shown in example b, below). Vertical/spectral fusion (of bc) and the emergence of timbral quality. Listen for the richness of the timbre of the lower (bc) tone. Note that when ab is more strongly segregated melodically, bc fusion is reduced. *when a is closer to b, c is more pure made c less rich, b does not contribute to timbre of c* Note that when bc are desynchronized (bc not played together), b is more readily captured into the ab melodic stream. Further desegregation is possible by introducing another melodic note*
