In this paper, the process of visual perception is analysed by looking at the visual hierarchy and their associated centres, and the neural language that different kind of functional neurons speak. This temporal flow of information is compared metaphorically with a musical orchestra, identifying the different functional neurons, with distinct instruments from different sections, and the temporal spike patterns provided with the musical notes played by each instrument. In this manner each instrument provides timbric characteristics to the neuronal symphony, and the synchronized concordance of the notes provides meaning to the physical perception. This speculative vision may suggest new kinds of experiments to test new ideas regarding the understanding of visual perception.
