Looking for writing by/about austistic composers or autistic musicians or autistic issues in music?
(My spouse is convinced I'm on the spectrum, which I find annoying. Just because my uncle my dad my brother and every male relative . . . .)
@celesteh listened to mozart once and now i'm no longer autistic /s
@catherine I knew all those dead german men were good for something.

Was my post offensive? or?

@celesteh
No. Just a joke about dialects. A 'Trumm' (compare: Trümmer) is just a large piece of something. In this case: Speck (bacon)

Ah, all I could tell was that it was a dead animal.
I am definitely not on any kind of bacon, even including (alas) veggie bacon.

I prefer for myself an omnivore nutrition style, but love to cook without any animalic ingrediences, because that's a challenge. There, I never try to replace meat with mock meat, I just use other recipe. Both non-animalic and animalic eaters liked it so far, so I think I do it ok.
For sure we should size down or animalic protein consumotion, both for health an environment.
@celesteh there might be articles about Gary Human around? he's been quite open about his autism.
@celesteh fuck's sake autocorrect
@gid Is it Gary Human? That's a provocative name but it seems to belong to a bitcoin guy?
typo of Gary Numan, probably from this fairly recent article..
@celesteh yeah phone keyboard autocorrected Numan to Human
@stackingstones You got anything on this?
@celesteh
I have no ides about writing, but susan boyle and adam young (owl city) are both autistic
I also vaguely remember abt one guy who does EDM and while he only releases then if they're perfect, has apparently made like 10k songs. I can't find him now but wow i am finding other autistic musicians, including a band called The AutistiX
Idk how many of them have writing abt it tho, but it might be worth getting individual names and searching for any writing
I had a student ask about neurodiversity and obviously a lot of trans people are autistic, so this means noise and vaporwave, but I don't know who is out as on the spectrum?
I'm guessing it will be younger people as people my age generally were not assessed for this in our youths.
