+## Implicit intrinsic calls
+Associating two values like `3/2 "fif"` invokes intrinsic behavior between the interval `3/2` and the string `"fif"` resulting in an interval with the value 3/2 and the label "fif".
+
+Semantics of the expression `left right` follow this matrix depending on the types of the operands. Booleans are converted to `0` or `1` and follow interval semantics. Question marks indicate undefined behavior.
+| left↓ right→ | Niente        | String        | Color         | Interval       | Val            | Function      |
+| ------------ | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- | -------------- | -------------- | ------------- |
+| **Niente**   | ?             | ?             | ?             | bleach         | ?              | `right(left)` |
+| **String**   | ?             | concatenate   | ?             | label          | ?              | `right(left)` |
+| **Color**    | ?             | ?             | ?             | paint          | ?              | `right(left)` |
+| **Interval** | bleach        | label         | paint         | `left × right` | `left × right` | `right(left)` |
+| **Val**      | ?             | ?             | ?             | `left × right` | ?              | `right(left)` |
+| **Function** | `left(right)` | `left(right)` | `left(right)` | `left(right)`  | `left(right)`  | `left(right)` |
+
+Intrinsic behavior vectorizes and broadcasts like other binary operations.
+
+Intrinsic behavior may be evoked explicitly by simply calling a value e.g. `3/2("fif")` and `"fif"(3/2)` both work.
+
+Some expressions like `440Hz` or `440 Hz` appear similar to intrinsic calls and would correspond to `440 × (1 Hz)` but `600.0 Hz` is actually `600.0e × (1 Hz)` instead of cents multiplied by Hertz.
+
+It's legal to declare `let Hz = 'whatever'`, but the grammar prevents the `Hz` variable from invoking intrinsic behavior of integer literals from the right.
