Have you ever come across a perfect simulation from physicists of what their equations and minds say the universe truly 'looks/works' like?
I personally would love to see how they think an electron interacts with the 'em/photon' field, a simulation of an electron traveling and then being accelerated to create photons. I would love to see how they think that occurs, to create a visualization of this activity.

Yes but music is emergent. Fundamental physics is trying to figure out what the stuff is made of and how that stuff exists and works.
Music requires air, and frequencies of mass vibrating. Without the medium of air mass can still vibrate and so music is just the harmonic (or dissonant) coherence of frequency of mass vibration. So I guess what you are saying makes sense if you are saying that the air acts like the 'em/photon' field, and the electron acts like the string on a guitar, and when the electron or guitar string is accelerated a photon is created or the energy that was associated with the previous state of the mass was contributed to a surrounding coupled or integrated field, which then carried that energy. So it appears these fundamental fields are just very tightly taught fields that are stretched the area of the universe with no problem. The problem I have with is understand how might such a field be capable of existing, how can something be all encompassing and connected, without need of connections, how can fields be envisioned as physically existing entities.

is there "air" inside your head? does the music you hear in your mind when you sing to yourself "reverberate"? are creative thoughts "material" things? "emergent" things?

Hm, I disagree. I am not the standard model of particles, a black hole, gravity, any type of star or supernova, or dark energy. Fundamental physics, physics in general is trying to figure out everything that is possible to figure out, we happen to be included in that everything.

The 'music' I can hear in my head is not sound music, it is digital. Just like when you see a dog in your head there is not a dog in your head. Yes thought is material, it requires material to produce it and if we want to get technical the system and event of thought is energetic.
