PERCEPTION

I realised that I viewed music some what from a graphic design perspective that is I see it all through the world of colour. Though the two disciplines are different they have similar principles which at times have varying meanings. E.g. tone, texture and colour though they all have universal meanings, in terms of application in both disciplines may differ.

Texture in design most times refers to smoothness or coarseness of objects, whilst in music composition it rather refers to the density of a piece depending on its instrumental structures. However to another texture may refer to the tone and colour of a voice, again its all how you choose to see it.

''though two disciplines are different, they have similar principles''

Most times we all view the world differently based on what has shaped our perspective. They call them the 'moulders' or molding factors in your life based on either indoctrination or life experiences.

So what is it that has caused you to either see the world in colour or black and white? Which colour spectrum are you using? Is it a pre-defined pallet or ambiguous? whichever way you look at it something has shaped your perspective.

So why not decide on your own what colour you choose to see the world through your eyes.

Don't become a victim of circumstances you have the power to shape your own mind and determine the moulders in your life.

''Is it a pre-defined pallet or ambiguous?''

How?

The word says..As man thinketh in his heart so is he.' Without going deep into the power you possess lets be open and frank. The way you think of you or life will always determine your speech and actions which in turn have a cause and effect on everything you do and become.
