do you have any thoughts about how vessel was trained? not trying to dissect his background/potentially trudge up personal stuff, but im so curious how people think his music was influenced since he mainly plays piano but can do other instruments too. i also have no musical knowledge so i have no idea the difference between classically trained, etc 🥹

Hello, Anon 🖤 Thank you for the ask! I have next to no musical knowledge myself, but I do have A Lot™️ of thoughts about how Vessel was trained. I'll do my best to go into details without getting into identity stuff, but just in case, this will all be below the cut so people can scroll past if they wish.

Okay. So. Vessel is a musical genius. I'm not saying that like, "Omg, he's so good at music and playing the piano and—" No. He's an actual genius. I've seen one source that claims he can learn any song by ear, and Vessel's YouTube channel with the piano covers he would make among his original songs. Obviously, he's not like… Mozart or something, but he is brilliant and very good at what he does.

I know that he has someone close to him who was/is a musician and fellow music lover, and I believe that is what kickstarted everything for Vessel at a very young age. He most likely was given piano lessons, and it probably evolved from there to learning guitar/bass when he got a bit older, and then by the time he was a teenager, he was learning how to compose and mix his own music (albeit with limited access to music production programs and equipment).

Regarding proper schooling, Vessel pursued his love of creating music in his education and graduated from a music institute for Songwriting. I'm not sure if there was a more formal title like Composing or Music Production or if maybe "Songwriting" automatically includes all of that. Vessel was claimed to be "a trained pianist" for one of his projects prior to Sleep Token. Still, it's unclear if that means he was Classically Trained, meaning he took music history courses and has an in-depth knowledge of music theory. Since he did graduate from a music institute, I'm assuming that he is Classically Trained, but I have not seen/heard actual evidence of that.

It's fascinating listening to the evolution of Vessel's music and his skills, even with something like "Arachnophobia" to "Thread the Needle." (There are much better examples, but I'm only just now realizing while editing this that I don't have them posted yet🤦‍♀️) That's about as specific as I can get without stating something too majorly personal or revealing. If anyone wants, I'd happily continue this conversation or answer any questions in a more private atmosphere, such as in DMs.

Just popped in to say I love your art, and your take on the Archivists is one of my favorites. They genuinely care for the Collector and are raising him the best they can, but there's the issue of what they consider "Best" and some generational trauma going on.

Thank you! I'm very glad you like it:D Yeah, they are not very good at self-reflection, but Collector is their little sibling, with all the pros and cons

It’s really funny that I told someone that they were spreading misinformation about the word transandrophobia, and tried to correct them multiple times, and they “blocked me for harassing them about not wanting to use the term”

But then when they were told “actually you’re wrong that there’s no overlap with misogyny” by the actual coiner (which is exactly what I’d been saying but whatever) they just edit the post where they say I’m harassing to be like “and now I understand the term better! :)” while continuing to still have the “fact” in there that I was harassing them for not liking a term.

You were actively spreading misinformation to your followers by making multiple posts where you concluded “the coiner of transandrophobia said there’s no overlap between transandrophobia and misogyny” and got angry at me for pointing that out so much that you straight up lied about what I was telling you directly underneath what I was telling you, and you think it’s fine to go now just go “tee hee I was misunderstanding and I get it now but that person still just harassed me for not liking a word”

Bullshit

he bends at the waist and smirks(because he likes to make fun of our height difference) before throwing out some pickup line as if we’re meeting for the first time 🙄 then marathon sex but in the first round there’s no words spoken—all the longing, grief, and love is expressed through actions and gleam in his eyes. 9 months later I’m pregnant!!!

serious q - what’s the first thing gojo does to you once he’s outta the box 😏
