Hey! Something about the sound of Michael Rother... not sure why but I could listen to it for hours.

Ellen Fullman. God, I have a disc by her ("Body Music," I think) that I haven't listened to in many years, and had all but forgotten about. Time to revisit. Different from this-- long, much more minimal, droning compositions; if memory serves.

Momus reminds me... at least at moments, of Peter Blegvad. Never heard of him before.

He does have the eye, I think, but is completely blind in it. Some sort of eye disease.

Ah, I didn't know that.

interesting perspective in that Momus song. i have to go back to that again.
(and i too thought it was Donovan for a sec)

wigkey: ...'In his lyrics and his other writing he makes seemingly random use of decontextualized pieces of continental (mostly French) philosophy, and has built up a personal world he says is "dominated by values like diversity, orientalism, and a respect for otherness." He is fascinated by identity, Japan, Rome, the avant-garde, time travel and sex'...

Via wikipedia: "In December 1997, he contracted acanthamoeba keratitis in his right eye due to a contact lens mishap sustained whilst on holiday in Greece, causing loss of vision on that side."

Wow, so the eye accident is (relatively) recent. No wonder I didn't know about it.

I'm writing about a character with one eye, so I am very sensitive to the issues of the monocular population, PMD!

@ Holly I meant it kind of as a joke. I know neither Dave not you were making fun

@Holly: Least I can do.
@PMD: I'd never do that. I'm practically a one-eyed person myself.

rw:

I had a friend when I was in my late teens who had a glass eye. There was a freeway overpass that always freaked him out to drive over. I always thought he was being overly sensitive until I tried driving over it with one eye closed. You lose your depth perception with only one eye and it WAS pretty freaky.

Dave Mandl:

(One very weak eye. I was actually supposed to wear an eye-patch when I was a kid, but I refused.)

I wore an eye patch for like a week back in high school because I had some kind of gross eye infection or something. I hot-glued sequins all over it. I was a very strange teenager.
Avatar 11:23pm
Dave Mandl:

The idea is that you wear a patch over the strong eye to strengthen the weak one, but I wasn't going to walk around with a patch on my eye.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:23pm
coelacanth:

ha! well if you got to wear an eye patch you might as well rock it!

Dave, maybe if it had sequins?

I used to keep a list of famous people with only one eye. There's a surrealist painter who actually painted a prophetic self portrait in which he's missing an eye that he had at the time he did the painting.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:27pm
coelacanth:

i certainly was self-conscious...maybe i didn't feel so bad about it 'cause my school had one kid with a hearing-aid; another with crippling arthritis; a few with "coke-bottle glasses"...
or maybe i was just already used-to being a freak.

Depth perception is the biggest hassle. Worse than Zapp Brannigan.

Here it is. He lost the eye years later when he was hit in the face by another surrealist painter.

(Eyepatch) Fox:

I wear an eyepatch. It's because my eye muscles tire out and go crossed when I try to use my eyes together and I end up seeing double. I'd had vision problems since I went unexplicably crosseyed at 19, and I'd always tried prism glasses. But then out of necessity I had to use an eyepatch a few years ago and really dug it. It's so much easier, cheaper, AND I get to look like a SUPERVILLAIN! It's a win-win-win.

I myself am severely nearsighted and, with age, have developed permanent floaters that bob and weave in my field of vision like super-powered gnats. Makes reading a challenge.

Simon: reading chunks of text is hard for me as well, and I miss devouring books like I used to, but I'm happy to live in an era when so much is adapted to audio. When I'm not listening to WFMU I'm either listening to Big Finish audioplays, or news or something. There's so much to fill your head with, and such ease with which to fill your mobile device!!

coelacanth:

i saw some bullcrap on "scishow" on boobtube saying floaters are genetic and inevitable; but i'm positive that the majority of my many (& increasing) floaters are the result of all the dust,bugs,etc. i get in my eyes on a regular basis.

Andrew Waterloo:

Yah, that typo was little less strategic than usual

@coelacanth - My moms has the same nearsightedness that I have, and had the same floaters. She had some kind of surgery for them, which I am reluctant to pursue.

maybe it's genetic some of the time, or the result of learned habits from generation to generation...and maybe some of mine are too; but not them all, i'm sure.
