Music. Listening; creating.. Doesn't matter. It soothes the soul.

I do appreciate television to be able to make people feel or convey a concept to those who otherwise might not get it. The Handmaid's Tale changed a lot of lifelong Republicans to Democrats, for example.

To create or experience?

demos, as in some geek created music and 2d art and 3d art and programmed in a series of interesting routines in a thematic style, with no attempt at monetization. a global scene has been ongoing since computers ran at < 1 mhz. lan parties on the scale of thousands have competitions.

I really like sculptures. I generally don't care for staring at paintings, but if it's 3D then I'm in. Really liked a Matisse exhibit I saw a while back

Digital drawing using Paint Tool Sai 1! I sometimes feel like the odd one out because everyone else seems to either use Clip Studio Paint or Procreate haha, but I love Paint Tool Sai so much it's my beloved. It was made by just one guy too! 😃

Sai is like one of the classics, I remember being odd for being an artrage user years ago (still am one)

Music. There's so much variety and limitless options. Having said that, I tend to stick to the genres I fell in to as a teenager, but have branched out a bit as I've aged.

Needle felting. The tools and materials are cheap, you can do it anywhere, and you create by stabbing something thousands of times.
