re: synaesthetic it's like using 'autistic' to describe something tactless

'intensely & esoterically evocative beyond the auditory realm' doesn't have the same ring tbh

matt p otm, and the effect of reflexively talking that way seems to be to displace a legitimate space in which the evocative, the intense, the sensual, the imaginative have some relevance to the music, over into a lawless nattering land where any impression stands on its own because no one ever expects that the impressions should have something intelligible to do with the actual music, as opposed to cartoonish little sci-fi filmlets and fragments of descriptive phraseology (13 difft ways of hearing a clank) that pop into one's head for lack of any other way to put the music to words

did u read my long post abt 6ie.cr? if not then do, then tell me i've displaced a legitimate space where the music and the evocative have no direct relationship. everyone posting in that thread is to an extent a synaesthete, as are both members of autechre, so let's not get too precious. it's lazy shorthand for 'this makes me see/imagine/taste things not implicitly connected to the sound', and sure we shd combat lazy shorthand, and sure i won't use the word again unironically in that thread, but i don't use it wantonly. if you want i cd say exactly how some of these trax trigger a synaesthetic effect? or yeah i cd discuss the music, its building swirling cascading sonic-cathedral magnificence, in what passes for detail.

lol let's not get too precious DESCRIBING OUR SYNAESTHETIC SENSE PERCEPTIONS
it's just irritating is all, like if a group of people only ever talked about the books of their favorite author by how they felt the words smelled instead of talking about, like, the stories and characters and metaphors and poetic qualities and the meaning
― j., Friday, 3 October 2014 01:09 (nine years ago) link
yeah i've been getting into the meat & bones of autechre like a terrible rash in that thread. the occasional lazy shorthand can be forgiven, right? & there's room for poetic license within subjective sense-impressions ANYWAY so there nah *sticks out tongue*

Considering the things that routinely come out of your mouth so blithely, I'm actually quite relieved and even consider it a form of compliment that you don't like me.

i have a Mennonite colleague who has a chauffeur who drives him around and answers the cell phone for him bc he isn't allowed to do those things himself

are you sure that's a colleague and not a character from a Rian Johnson movie?
― GhostTunes on my Pono (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 13 October 2014 18:40 (nine years ago) link
well, i've met him. he has many children, wears a black hat and lives in central PA. except for the central part he could be a relative :D

do Mennonites believe that driving and talking on cell phones are sins? wouldn't causing another to sin be worse than sinning for oneself in most Christian religions?
― GhostTunes on my Pono (Sufjan Grafton), Monday, 13 October 2014 18:43 (nine years ago) link
maybe he has a dispensation bc he needs to do it for work? idk. i joke that he's 'modern mennonite'

I momentarily had as my facebook status "How about instead of renaming it 'Indigenous People's Day' we rename it 'Edgy White Person In-The-Know Facebook Status Day.' Just kidding guys, f Columbus."
But then I immediately deleted it, because why be a jerk to people on the right side of things. Also, I accidentally posted it to a local parenting group instead of my facebook wall, which is really really embarrassing and I hope no one saw it.
