I'd probably just commit suicide if either happened, since I don't think life would be worth living as a cripple, but if I were blind I would at least be able to hear the music I play.
Plus "Blind Guitarist" would just be cool. ____________________ Arc-Nova.org: More Chiptunes Than Your Mother Can Handle |

There's a few famous blind musicans, and a deaf composer... so I guess it would work out  .
...but I can imagine it being bit of a hell with being a composer and deaf. While they could imagine it inside their head, they wouldn't be able to hear it for real... ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Saying that hearing music in your head and listening to it are the same is like saying thinking of a sandwich is as good as eating one. ____________________ Arc-Nova.org: More Chiptunes Than Your Mother Can Handle |

true story, a few years ago my brother had a short tenure as a deaf dj at clubs
i think i should also add that anyone who would choose blindness over deafness is an idiot blind people are handicapped in lifestyle deaf people just cant hear. big deal. they can still drive cars, BE INDEPENDENT, watch tv, play videogames, go on the computer, and while not very obvious, even music, if only minutely, can still be enjoyed while deaf. they can still have a life of their own. my brother's deaf and if you were to ask him if he would give up his sight to hear again he'd be like "are you fucking kidding me" in that weird retarded sounding tone that deaf people have when talking on an unrelated note, he had the choice as a teenager to undergo surgery to regain some hearing -- he went against it because he didnt want to lose his deaf friends. however, he has more friends who are of hearing than he does deaf ones. deaf people are not handicapped!! |

Driving cars while deaf?! If you were about to get hit by a car or a train while driving, would you hear it before you would get hit? ____________________ |

Deaf, by far. Didnt even have to think. In fact, after smell/taste, which are really the same thing, I would lose my hearing. If I lost my sight, i would consider my life basically over.
To address the above post, severe accidents are actually worse if you see it comming. If you know its comming, youll tense up and have far worse muscle/ligament damage because of it. If your loose, youll just bet thrown around like a rag doll. |

I once saw something on David Suzuki's show about a program that emits sounds for the blind which goes directly to their brain and it will allow that blind person to "see" light and shadow. For some reason, the sound will quickly be recognized by the human brain which directs the eyes to see these lights/shadows. As for me, blind. I'd want to see how cool it would be to see these "visions". ____________________ |
