Creative Playlist Series
As the emergent phenomenon of internal-mental visualization is quite capable of ‘dancing to the rhythm’ of external stimuli such as sound, music can be enjoyed as a potent catalyst for vision and the creative process. These playlists aim to stir up and excite inner vision, and once a vision of interest is encountered, it is sometimes recommended to switch to genres such as ambient and classical that promote a deeper focus and exploration of what is seen in order to translate internal vision into a medium that can be shared with and experienced by others!
Best experienced with high quality headphones (eg over-ear headphones).

Above image inspired by Dr. Fred Turner: what does civilization look like once everyone can fly?
“When Cleopatra is comfortable in her wings, she assists Narcissus into his. A man weighing 160 pounds on Earth is only sixty-four pounds on Mars, but a sixty-four pound Martian would be very rare, for the low gravity encourages small bones and ectomorphism. A Martian two meters tall (they are often taller) would weigh 120 pounds on Earth and only forty-eight on Mars. Thus a trained man with a good set of wings can easily fly in the near-terrestrial artificial atmosphere.
An ordinary set of wings is usually handmade of permaplastic. Wingsmiths require long training, as each set of wings must be tailored precisely to the musculature and bone structure of its owner. The wings of Narcissus and Cleopatra are far from ordinary. Fashioned of a titanium alloy, each feather tapering to rigid foil and anodized in barbaric colors, the "bones" fluted and internally stressed, with tendons of invisible unimolecular fiber, and pivots sheathed in precious stone, these wings are masterpieces of the wingsmith's art.” — A Double Shadow
