ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT
Sounds and arts act as a meaningful, holistic framework to observe the meaning
of experiences for learning at human societies, cultures and individual lives. In
this paper, musical elements with the grounds on prenatal and early postnatal de-
velopment, are comprehended to define multisensory experiences in human learn-
ing. Connections with the development of higher education are being observed
and considered here. Theories, pedagogies and musical-artistic expriences are ex-
plored as a necessity in education comprehension due to its phenomenal, inner
power in a human being. How and why to benefit this information? Some exam-
ples of research-oriented co-creational networks and projects are being presented
and opened in this paper, as possible alternatives to support the virtual and face-
to-face encounters for learning through the support of music integration.

1 Introduction
Sounds in languages and in music provide us with valuable resources in learning interaction, and provide us with a framework
for the dialogical perspectives of this paper, to observe the philosophies, theories and pedagogies in music, to integrate music
in teaching, and to support the transversal nature of learning processes. These themes provide a ground for some network
collaboration aims and models to be presented at the current paper. The Multisensory Musical Design (MMD)[1] and a model
for integrated music education (IME) [2] are opened at the paper to create the main theoretical-philosophical framework for
the chosen performances.
The Multisensory Musical Design (MMD) aims to describe the very first multisensory, ultimate, deep experiences from the
theoretical grounds of pre- and postnatal development. The MMDesign is constructed via the three main phenomena, faces,
spaces and timelines, which are being explained via our earliest sound experiences, leading us to learn besides music, also
language, and function as a support for our ability to learn and connect, and feel well. [1.]
In an integrated model of music education, music is observed as something more than the combination of the existing
elements, or the inserting of nonmusical elements into existing ensembles. A number of expertise fields were searched for, to
create this integrated model for music education, constructed of inter- and intracultural, disciplinary and personal development.
[2.] This creates also a focus for the SIGPrime network, initated by Markus Cslovjecsek [40].
A model of clouds, as thematic groups, create the basic framework for the aims of the European Association for Practitioner
Research on Improving Learning EAPRIL [3], also to serve the development of the association [4] in cooperation with the
EAPRIL members. Kaarina Marjanen and Markus Cslovjecsek initiated the Cloud 9 "Sounds & Arts in Transversal Learning"
in 2016, which was further developed by these first coordinators in collaboration with Hubert Gruber. The cloud wishes to
