Perceptions Of Music - Tumblr Posts
I perceive music a bit differently from most people (absolute pitch, precisely played music comes in as the names of the notes, etc.). So I’m always hungry to compare notes with other people who do too - this is how I receive music notes when played in such a way; how about you? But most of the time it’s hard to find common ground. This is such a cool way for the artist to *show* people how she experiences music, and for us to share with her!
