Playing Colors, Not Notes
Jimi
[Hendrix] insisted to close intimates that he played colors, not notes, and that
he "saw" the music in his head as he played it. His description of his
creative process has an eerie similarity to what Dr. Hoffman wrote
about his own first acid trip: "Every acoustic perception . . . became
transformed into optical perceptions."
