   Autism and The Arts, Page Eight

 

House of The Secret Door (Resurrection Game): This is a follow-up video to the first House of The Secret Door excerpt from my novel-in-progress The Travelers-Back. This film chronicles a dream which draws from autobiographical details, a dream journal, and imagination.

Two brothers trouble over an imaginary game and its consequences.

 

Personal Autistic Traits: A list of personal autistic traits are provided, although any such list must be incomplete. Each trait has its advantages and disadvantages for an artist.

 

Imagination and Its Enemies: Getting anywhere as an artist can be a struggle. For artists with imagination, there are additional barriers.

 

The Autistic Extrovert: It is perhaps easier to understand autistics who may be introverts or unsocial. However, a subset of those with this condition go the other way, and often stand out from the crowd.

 

The Two Journeys of Every Artist: A few sober truths about artists and art galleries are discussed. But do not despair. The value in art is slowly revealed with time for those who persist on this journey.
