Abstract
This article advances the Serezian Model of Emotional Resonance by examining the cognitive and neuroaesthetic mechanisms through which sound interacts with emotion. It proposes that affective responses to sound are mediated not only by auditory perception but also by higher-order neural synchronization processes conceptualized as cognitive resonance. Integrating perspectives from sound physics, affective neuroscience, and interdisciplinary aesthetic theory, the study argues that emotion and cognition function as resonant structures rather than parallel processes. The resulting framework, defined as the Cognitive Resonance of Sound, offers a novel approach to understanding emotional frequency, neuroaesthetic perception, and artificial emotion within AI-assisted creativity. This model contributes theoretical insights relevant to neuroaesthetics, sound-based emotional analysis, and the future development of empathetic artificial intelligence systems.
