It is intriguing to note the extent to which physics, notably astrophysics and fundamental physics, make use of sonification to enable pattern recognition in massive streams of data. Seemingly no argument is made for such use in policy making, despite the immense dependence on verbal declarations for debate and public relations. What patterns remain undetected?

This metaphor frames discussion of any univocal declaration (as in the main paper) -- notably as the solo performance of a supreme leader. This contrasts with recognition of the variety of "voices" in any democracy -- potentially vital to the viability of a psychosocial ecosystem, understood in terms of requisite variety.

The angel metaphor lends itself to articulation in such terms -- especially given traditional reference to "choirs of angels". Is the set of values better to be understood in choral and symphonic form through the complex interplay of multiple "voices" -- each necessarily exemplifying a instinctive form of otherness, potentially challenged with anti-otherness in musical terms? Given the interplay in music between concord and discord, how does the distinction of nine choirs of angels relate to the geometric distinctions with regard to nine-fold patterns (Concordian Mandala as a Symbolic Nexus: insights from dynamics of a pentagonal configuration of nonagons in 3D, 2016; Use of Concordian Mandala for a 3D ordering of value polarities, 2016)?

An instructive approach to the visualization of the dynamics between voices is presented below using colours to distinguish them (24-fold Pattern Implied by Dynamics of the Lauburu in 3D, 2016).
