Reasoning
I am here for no purpose, other than my ownIt is neither doubt, nor faith, which attracts meYet I am thankful, for the beauty, for the welcome 2018 will be the one hundredth anniversaryThough of what I am not sure, but significantlyA grand new organ, with trumpets has been installed It’s in tuning phase, for which they ask for silenceWhich is fine by me, for, being tone deafI would be able to offer so so little assistance Available at Amazon See more of Christopher's work Here http://dlvr.it/RGr9Q4 Hope you like it

hello! hearie here, working on a design project to (hopefully) make a virtual/augmented reality thing which allows deaf people to make music/sound sculptures based on visual + tactile elements (sorry if it sounds vague, we're still in a pretty exploratory stage of research). What is your experience with music? How do you experience it (visually, tactile, live venues, etc), and why do you enjoy the way you experience it best? Have you ever created music for yourself or others, and how?
Mod M here, 
I have some hearing so I generally enjoy music the same way hearies do - but it takes a lot more energy to process it. I need lyrics to understand most songs and I love to turn up the base to feel the music. Live music rocks with feeling the music part of things. I play clarinet, and know a lot of deaf musicians. I used a tuner to help figure out my tuning but like... I also have enough hearing to know if my tone is good or not. 
My experience is one of many. If any deafie wants to respond feel free to reblog with your own experiences!

Behind-the-scenes #sneak #peek at how I make an original "music video" because #adult #play doesn't always involve sex! 🤷‍♀️💋💜💯🤟
I make multiple clips, then edit what I don't want out of them, then piece all the edited clips together to create the finished video, then mute the audio tracks from all the different clips and add whatever original music track I made the video for...and done! 💎
Keep in mind, I do all of that while not hearing anything I do lol

a smokin' Sunday with me...anybody wanna chill? #stonercreed #freetheweed #chillwithme #Sundayvibes #weekendvibes 18+ 21+
A little birdy told me
Baby, you are no good
I didn't even need to see your manly manlihood
Baby, you were a dream...morphed into a nightmare
Like a fantasy burstin' at the seams
A missile exploding in air
Shake it, break it, lose what you will
But don't you tell me I was more than a thrill
Tired of your lies and looking at your face
Like the boogie man
Monster is your name
I'm over it
Cause I'm over you
I'm over it
Cause baby, we're through

One thing I loved about Cali was how weed was legal and normalized and you could smoke in public without being treated like a criminal for practicing your God-given right of having dominion over the plants on Earth (personal usage of them is your dominion) and they had shops where you could buy the primo stuff for a fair, commercialized price, and there were people smokin' at the beach and walkin' down the street. It was nice, indeed! #legalize #nationwide #free #the #weed #commercialize #thegreen
In downtown Denver, CO...you could smell it in the air. It was like living a real, live dream come true!!! lmfeo Denver was by far the most weed-friendly city we visited during our road~tripping travels.
You didn't have to fear smoking there. You could smell it in the hotel lobby or the elevator. People didn't mind the smell like they do in other places. That was the cool vibe about Denver...it's like people knew to expect to see and smell weed there and they had absolutely zero qualms with it. #gocolorado #godenver #gobroncos
Funny enough though, the south-eastern region of the USA, Appalachia, and the east coast is the area of the USA where the weed~vibe is the least friendly and acceptable. That is entirely surprising to me because it's a region of North America that is incredibly furtile and perfect for growing...weed. It's kinda behind the times in the Bible Belt and they kinda needta get witha program.

Please keep in mind, I can’t hear shit (unless you count a muffled voice underwater a hundred miles away and...vibrations) and as such, I didn’t hear any of this as I sang or watched the playback for upload. I literally have approximate 5-10% of total hearing left in either ear (maybe less seeing as my last audiology testing was over five years ago when it was at that percent, but I have hereditary progressive nerve deafness so I've lost more since that test) so I didn’t hear it like you can hear it...but, ya know, singing is what humans do. Why should I let the details stop me?
A bit about deafness: whether my guitar and voice are in tune or not, to a deaf person trying to sing and play an instrument, I ALWAYS sound "out of tune" to myself. My own voice sounds like someone is holding a pillow over my mouth which is buried at the bottom of the Atlantic. It's like I can't get to my own voice...like it's waiting for me down at the end of some long tunnel that I never reach. As for the guitar, I don't hear it, rather, I feel the vibrations coming from the strings, the body, and the hole. And then, I just roll with it. It's so frustrating to even try singing when you're deaf. Almost like trying to sing when you're dead. Same vibe...life on silence. Animated silence.
Animated silence feels more like living life as a zombie. Deafness makes you feel half-alive and half-dead.
I wear no aid. No hearing aids, no cochlear implant.
Original Lyrics:
"Need You"
This pain is real and everything I feel
I just wanna say, there's this empty place
All those days gone by, all those years wasted
I need you like rain needs the sky
I want you like dreams want the night
Baby, you take my heart
And hold it ever so tight
Without letting go, all the wrongs are made right
I need you like rain needs the sky
I want you like dreams want the night
Baby, I feel your love
Like the calm after the storm
Baby, I feel your love
And all I want is more
I need you like rain needs the sky
I want you like dreams want the night
Take me in your arms, never let me go
We'll be all we dreamed of
Until our love grows old
I need you like rain needs the sky
I want you like dreams want the night
