Senses
July 9, 2008
I am a person of the senses, mainly touch, sound, and vision. I don’t think I would feel complete without taste or smell but I am not motivated by food and I really cant smell things very well anyway, so those are not top picks for me.
Sight
My vision is better than 20/20 I don’t know how good it is, I maxxed out the charts at the eye doctor. I probably don’t appreciate my sight as much as I should, the only time I really think about it is when I am actually paying attention to something visual.
There was a short movie that I watched while I was really, really tired; the music was really mellow and the colors were really trippy. I felt like I was on drugs or in a dream. I wish I could find that movie again.
Touch
I like feeling a warm pillow on my face, hugging my dog, swimming, playing with my hair, taking hot showers, what can I say, touch is really important to me. I think the biggest thing I would miss if I lost my feeling is being able to feel a hug. That would be really sad.
Hearing
I would say the most important sense to me is my hearing. The louder something is that I am vibing with, the more I feel connected. Which has not done a whole lot for keeping my hearing, but what can I say, everything that is fun is bad for you.
I really enjoy listening to music, I paid for $110 for Sennheiser headphones and then $250 for Astro Gaming headphones.
The Astros are sweet because they are 5.1 but the Sennheisers are definitely more comfortable.
My favorite band right now is Tool.
Sober, Vicarious, and Lateralus are the three best songs in my opinion.
Lateralus is cool because it is heavily based on the Fibonacci sequence, where a number is the sum of the two numbers before it. 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13…
This movie explains it really well.
Below is probably my favorite part of the song.
I’m reaching up and reaching out. I’m reaching for the random or what ever will
bewilder me.
what ever will bewilder me.
And following our will and wind we may just go where no one’s been.
We’ll ride the spiral to the end and may just go where no one’s been.
