When I hear music, I mostly "feel it" as in, accents, physical feeling, it's difficult to explain. In addition to that, I 'see' a kind of curve that goes up or down with high or low notes, but that is probably because I see music as sheet music, through the eyes of a musician. That is with monotone music (1 line music, like paganini) With polyphone music it gets complexer, more curves, different feeling for each 'voice' with the accents... I wonder if this makes any sense at all, for it's difficult to explain. Sometimes music triggers landscapes, sometimes the plain sheet music. It all depends on the music itself, classical music triggers more 'academic' feelings, while folk triggers landscape feelings

That's a very good one Although I'm not a big fan of Pink in paintings, this one turns out to be great in colors! I'd like to see that one full sized, because when clikcing it, you can't see it as a whole, and the thumbnail is just too tiny In the tiny one it looks like it's a tree standing next to water, while big sized it looks like it roots dig into some evil-shadow world [s]I'd like to know how high it is, because like Shadow says, it's not that clear...[/s]* [quote name='Muratus del Mur' timestamp='1293769209' post='76447'] lets generalise this...i like to think my purpose in life is to have each day idle in such way [/quote] I know the feeling very well Schoolwork - painting - schoolwork - painting (...) Meh, painting *Edit: Mur types faster... xD

Yes it is Yay!

Somehow, the picture of my award medal, also shows on my UTOB throphy and LR citizenship records And it shoudn't xD Anyone else got the same problem?

The log of the Winter Soltice or Yule Ceremony ~ Day: 355 Year: 5 ~ [Spoiler] After gathering at the Inn, we went to the Mistletoe Bridge, where our Druid Shemhazaj climbed one of the trees. There he cut some Mistletoe with his Golden Sicle. The pretty Priestesses ran under it, gathering the falling bits of Mistletoe.
