To use your Opera metaphor: we don't regard the sound vibrations as a phenomena that arranged itself randomly or non-purposefully. We logically recognize that there is an intelligence driving its patterns and frequencies and the very laws that make its existence possible to begin with.

Actually, no. Read some John Cage and Brian Eno. The perception of music can easily be decoupled from the intention of music.

Why are you putting forth this non-sequitor? One's perception of music does not change its origin.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 23223519


The point is that music can arise from non-intelligent processes.

Of course we recognize it as music, thus putting intelligence in the loop. But one could easily imagine...in fact, it has been done...designing a program that recognizes elements typical of music.

But, although this is an interesting digression, the only point I wanted to make is that music can and has arisen without the intelligence you demand.
