Reification occurs automatically with no additional mechanism required, for the vibration of the resonator at its characteristic frequency automatically regenerate its characteristic pattern back on the plate. Therefore if a noisy or irregular or incomplete pattern of damping is presented on the plate, the resonance resulting from that input pattern will set up the nearest matching standing wave pattern, which in turn will activate the corresponding resonator. The vibration of that resonator in turn will reify or complete its pattern back on the plate, automatically filling-in any missing features, as suggested in figure 5 A. This property of the Harmonic Resonance model corresponds to the perceptual tendency to perceive complete objects even when portions of them are occluded.
