FAQ
Q: What is brain tickling?
A: Brain tickling is evoking in someone thoughts AND
emotions that are both positive *AND* negative, analogous to how physical tickling is
simultaneously pleasant *AND* unpleasant.
For example, I play cover songs in specific ways/styles (e.g., over-the-top, unhinged) to evoke these
kinds of mixed-state emotions. My songs are also often chosen based on having lyrics with more substance/meaning
(
"meaningwave"-inspired).
Sometimes, my set lists are even chosen based on a "hidden" theme, for even MORE brain tickling!
In these ways, brain tickling can happen MUSICALLY/AUDITORILY (through the performance style)
and/or INTELLECTUALLY/COGNITIVELY (through the song/lyrics and/or set list of songs).
