Synesthesia is a neurological disorder wherein the senses are not...separate. Colors have smells, sounds have tastes, numbers have colours, and quite a few other correlations are possible.
I named this blog Synesthesia in Absentia because of all the things we perceive in the world and the way they are connected. While the vast majority of people don't have a neurological disorder, everything is connected. Everything means something else. I know, I'm being incredibly vague. Fuck you. I'm a poet, the only things I know how to say are vague things. Okay, that's not entirely true.
So really, this is all about the act of perceiving things and making connections between them...when they're not there, or maybe they don't even exist.
I dropped off the "Maybe" from the title, because I realized there is no "Maybe" any more, this is a project I've continued with.
