Meme time, again

[lectrix_lecti]

For once, a rather interesting meme, nicked from someone I came across on my bored LJ wanderings. Cheers, LJ-user whose name I don't remember.

You scored as Verbal/Linguistic. You have highly developed auditory skills, enjoy reading and writing and telling stories, and are good at getting your point across. You learn best by saying and hearing words. People like you include poets, authors, speakers, attorneys, politicians, lecturers and teachers. </td> Verbal/Linguistic 93% Intrapersonal 75% Musical/Rhythmic 68% Logical/Mathematical 68% Visual/Spatial 61% Interpersonal 39% Bodily/Kinesthetic 21% The Rogers Indicator of Multiple Intelligences created with QuizFarm.com

It's not entirely fair to ask me if I'm good at judging distances, as my eyesight effectively prevents me from doing so. Same goes for my aim. My left eye is -2,25 while my right eye is -5,25, go figure. A bit surprised by the relatively high visual/spatial score.

I'm definitely more intrapersonal than interpersonal. I've been called a misanthrope and took it as a compliment.

The terrible bodily/kinesthetic score is all too true. Again largely thanks to my poorly coordinated vision, I'm a tad clumsy. OK, more than a tad.

Note that I scored 68 % in both musical/rhythmic and logical/mathematical. As they are so closely tied together, there's no reason to get a wildly differing score on those. It puzzles me that people fail to understand this close connection, which, by the way, also goes for linguistic skills. It's all about logic.



Good gods, how that code messed with my pwetty layout.

No big surprise here. I still don't understand though how logic and music would be connected? I always have big problems with logic and maths, and not the slightest with playing music. On the other hand I probably don't dissect music. Hm. I think I solved it, never you mind.

Music is logic. If you understand the structure of music, i.e. scales, tabs etc., logic and maths shouldn't be a problem.

I note that a lot of women believe themselves to have bigger problems with logic and maths than they should have, considering their professed skills in music and syntax/grammar.

An intuitive (contra analytical) take on music and language, on the other hand, will account for a lack of understanding of logic and maths.

[skinfaxe.livejournal.com]

Ah. Because that's what I was going to say next. I don't know anything about grammar, scales or anything like that. I just go for what sounds right. Which isn't all that good.
Maybe I would understand logic/maths/tabs/whatever if I paid more interest to it. Which I don't. Uhm.

Or maybe I misunderstood? (I wrote a never ending question about 'intuitive' and 'analytical' but I think I sorted it myself).

Do you mean this can be applied only on music and language, not any other areas?

[lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com]

Music/maths/language are all based on logic.

But language and music have other structures, such as rhythm and vocabulary, that have little to do with logic, hence the possibility of intuitive approaches.

Ooh. For some reason I feel this subject could be very interesting to study. On the other hand it could also be very nerdy.

I only posted this to say that omg einstürzende should be banned and locked in forever. (and oh how sad is it that I am even able to spell it?)

[lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com]

Of course it's interesting. Go read Douglas Hofstadter's "Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid". You'll love it.

What's with the Neubauten slating? I swear, first chance I get, I'm going to make you sit through a listening to Silence Is Sexy.

Music is not exactly logic but mathematics

[lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com]

Math is pure logic. Logic is the core of it all.

[blue-chris.livejournal.com]

I am extremely bad in logics and extremely good at mathematics, how come?

[lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com]

That is extremely unusual. My guess is that you would be good at logic if you wanted to. It's amazing what the brain can decide to shut out if its owner thinks it should.

[blue-chris.livejournal.com]

You mean I am illogical because I want? Ummm

[lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com]

I mean that you subconciously think that logic is something you're bad at, therefore you are actually bad at it.

[blue-chris.livejournal.com]

I never tried studying logics much in fact but I never was able to computer programming, for instance

[lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com]

Of course programming is logic.

At the same time it can be regarded solely as language, ignoring the layer of logic. Programming languages are complete with (rather simple compared to real languages) vocabulary, grammar and syntax.

[blue-chris.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well, I am not very brilliant with language apparently

Seeing that I have a degree in Finance and Accounting, the number one shouldn't be a big surprise. The high score on Verbal/Linguistic is though.

Dear, I have 4,5 dyoptries in one eye and 5 in the other and I measure distances very well

You scored as Musical/Rhythmic.

You are sensitive to sounds in your environment, enjoy music and prefer listening to music when you study or read. You learn best through melody and music. People like you include singers, conductors, composers, and others who appreciate the various elements of music.

Musical/Rhythmic 86%
Visual/Spatial 86%
Interpersonal 71%
Logical/Mathematical 71%
Verbal/Linguistic 64%
Intrapersonal 43%
Bodily/Kinesthetic 43%

[lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com]

The difference between my eyes renders my ability to judge distances somewhat crippled and my right eye is very very lazy. Corrective lenses don't do anything for it either (except for the lazy eye), the damage was done before I got my first glasses.

[blue-chris.livejournal.com]

The lazy eyes problem has always shocked me a lot, I simply can´t imagine how it happens

[lectrix-lecti.livejournal.com]

Mine is not caused by shite muscles in the eye or anything else physical, it's just that my sight is so much worse on that eye that I simply don't use it when I'm not wearing glasses or contacts. It slides to the corner, and only makes itself known occasionally, which means I often have double vision.

[blue-chris.livejournal.com]

I have problems with night view, I need a time to get used to night, so it´s annoying when I am driving and night is coming

Well, who needs measuring directly when you have meters?

I think I'm going to get bored with these things.
