For me, everything has it's "song", there is a tonal experience for all phenomenon. As a singer myself, I like to sing the tones if I'm at liberty to do so (i.e. not in public). Natural phenom (trees, sunsets, etc) sometimes rlly like when you
sing w them. Sometimes just want u to listen.

Omg yes please to hearing colors!! Colors and sound is a whole juicy sysnesthesia thing. Although tbh in cities it's pretty awful. Generally what's nice in Nature synesthesia-wise is hellish in towns for me.

Most ppl I know whom society calls savant (they don't necessarily ID that way) also have sensory icks. Whther or not our skillset includes stuff society values as "talent" most of us exp some amount of disability. I get called "gifted" artistically but Im vry disabled + def can't touch microfibre

Wow cool! It's a mixed blessing, right? Depending on what yr looking at. I love talking about our non-norm sensory stuff

Wow I'd love to be in the loop about that.

Also like 2 yrs later everyone is saying the thing that we got ostracized for bc it wasn't "time" yet. No one remembers that they were awful to us for saying the same thing they are now writing a cunning think piece on.

Why art: Its a body sensation. Like I'm overflowing with inspo or just like a raw creation energy. I have to direct it, like water has to move. Also bc I'm extremely visually oriented and it's the best language for me.
