I can’t believe he’s gone, and just before he was due to receive the Mark Twain comedy award. We’ll miss you, George.

I’m still considering the photoblog angle on here, but in the meantime, I’ve finally decided on a name for my photography endeavours (such as they are): Synesthesia Photography.

Synesthesia (or synaesthesia) is loosely defined as “senses coming together,” which is just a translation of the Greek (etymology: syn - together, esthesia from aesthesis - sensation). At its simplest level, synesthesia means that when a certain sense or part of a sense is activated, another unrelated sense or part of a sense is activated concurrently. For example, when someone hears a sound, he or she immediately sees a color or shape in his or her “mind’s eye.”

That last sentence aptly describes concert photography to me. So there you are.
