Frangipani Report post Posted June 16, 2008 Hi, I was just browsing and found this beautiful youtube thread. Just wanted to share it, I love her artwork. Lots of techniques I have learned too, she is very good Enjoy. youtube has a lot of good links on Autism, many things I remember from support groups I attended. Unfortunately a lot of trash too, 'cure's', but it seems you can search most of the Authors and Accredited speakers on Autism and its just like being there face to face in a meeting. I just want to keep learning more. Here is one in particular that I can totally relate to with my son from many conversations we have had Just wondering what your thoughts are on this last one, if that is okay.

Rarrrr rrr rararah rah rah rarrrrrrrhhh rrraahhrrrrrr rrrrrrrrraaaaahhhhh! Apart from the fact that she talked far too fast for me to process it first time through, the actual content of what she was saying, would be, I think, very helpful to someone who doesn't experience these issues. I love the idea of Charlie Brown speech (did I pick that up right?) because that indistinguishable sound thing is a real issue I have (SG - I think this could be part of your answer to your how do I explain thread). "It keeps coming in and I can't stop it" - *nods* I've not seen Donna Williams' art before so thanks for posting it - I love the ones with circles and lines about 4 minutes in - there's a few in different colours. Does she sell prints? I'd love those on my wall if I had my own house. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baddad Report post Posted June 16, 2008 I really like her art, etc, but i think i've commented before on her music! The Vocoder plug in hasn't helped it any, either Now - of course, music is a totally subjective thing, so hats off to anyone who does like it and no hard feelings!

What, you dont like the music, the music is catchy it grows on you, if you listen to it enough. Like a trance It goes well with the artworks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1210donna Report post Posted June 22, 2008 Hi Mumble, yes, I sell prints via my site at http://www.donnawilliams.net glad you're enjoying the art. the one's with the circles and lines I call the Neoteric range they display 'systems thinking' essentially, when you're on the phone and you doodle with lines and circles and dots and find these system's pics relate symbolically to the concept or feelings discussed that's systems thinking I dream in systems thinking sometimes. My dreams have sometimes actually looked like those pics. :-) Donna *) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
1210donna Report post Posted June 22, 2008 I guess it ain't everyone's thing. And the Nobody Nowhere album is very different to the second album, Mutation (to compare the two you can hear clips of the tracks on my site) The Nobody Nowhere stuff was compared to Enya's work, which was strange but yes, they do have a relateable effect on people, both are hypnotic, true. The second one has spoken word stuff on it and is more experimental. Have just formed a band, Donna and the Aspinauts hope to get a clip onto You Tube some time with as yet unrecorded tracks. :-) Donna *) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mumble Report post Posted June 22, 2008 Thanks for the link - there's one called 'moving house' or something - how's that for an aim for me to have - have a house, have a picture on the wall I dream in systems thinking sometimes. My dreams have sometimes actually looked like those pics. Fancy a swap? My dreams are, erm, not so pretty/organised at present I think I would give people nightmares if they had pictures of my dreams on their walls Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frangipani Report post Posted June 22, 2008 Hi Donna, Surprised to see you on here. I really like your work, the youtube clip really goes with the music. Well done. <'> Love Fran x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
