A fact that seriously distresses me: I will one day lose my hearing.
I have a nasty habit of trying to completely immerse myself in music. To shut out any and all distractions. This usually involves listening to music REALLY FUCKING LOUD. Which of course means I’m most likely damaging my ear drums, and thus my ability to hear. Now this is exceptionally distressing because I require music. I need it for survival. Now, there are all different kinds of music, and music is everywhere. There is even music in silence. Can you imagine not even being able to hear silence>? I may kill myself. Of course, I probably won’t have to. Without music I’ll probably just die.
Thoughts like this make me wish I knew someone who was deaf. Someone who wouldn’t mind me asking them really stupid probably insensitive questions.
I want to build an isolation tank. I want to be able to fill it with music. I want to sit in darkness and surround myself with sound. I also want every wall to be a movie screen. A full 360 visual immersion. I would cut together images and music. I would probably never leave.
The shit I would do if I had money.
I really like extravagant song titles. Such as ‘The Last Days Of A Tragic Allegory’ Which is the song I was listening to when I started writing this post.
