When I make music, it's a very visual thing. Conjures up a lot of images.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I write music visually.
There is a great correlation between music and images.
Today, music is visual.
The funny thing is musicians often love to go to see visual art because you've got all these pictures to turn into metaphors.
I try to make songs visual and tactile to kind of put you into the action.
I listen to music cinematically. I think about music and how it would make me feel when it's put to an image, a moving image, and I love it.
I go to a very visual place when I'm singing. It's very cinematic and I get this feeling of space. I love when music does that.
I can't satisfy myself with just trying to tie all of my imagination into music, especially when music is not appreciated as an art form as much as it used to be.
Other people notice the same things but they don't think to put it to music.
Sometimes when I write lyrics there are images in them, usually on a quite simplistic level, like colors. But most often music comes first and then later I sit down with visual people and we chat about what we want to do. I don't look at myself as a visual artist. I make music.
