We're halfway on the path back to "Mark C." with this one... wouldn't
you say?? BTW, I personally found those days, including the discussion
of the implications of transferring esthetic vibrations ACROSS media...
i.e. from sound to light or whatever, fascinating. It seems most of it
really is hogwash, though, but fun to think about. Doesn't it seem like
other psychological considerations in this are paramount... our
associations of color with keys or sounds. I believe this kind of
approach is what Scriabin used... But are there not people who actually
SEE frequencies as specific colors, through their specific mental
wiring?? I thought I read something of this nature. Wow, this is
really a technical post...
