Facing a decaying website and a jaded community, we've rebranded our entire operation and relocated ourselves. GFXFreaks has become Synesthesia, named for the (sometimes drug-induced) condition of sensory merging; seeing color when listening to music, for example.

The word dominance can be used in a second context, referring to one entity ruling over another in a show of power.
Once again, The Collective has pushed their own abilities to new heights with the work they've created for this new exhibition, and we at GFX Freaks are all
Exhibition #0001: Rhythm.
From the Greek word rhythmos, meaning "any measured flow or movement, symmetry"
After long and unexpected delays, it is finally here for the world to see: our first official art pack, called an Exhibition. We'll be irregularly releasing these from time to time, depending on creative juices' viscosity and individuals' personal lives.
Rhythm is a principle of art that refers to the use of pattern, repetition, texture, and other elements to demonstrate and construct flow. The word provides for us a clever double-entendre, since it also refers to one of the base elements of music, and as a result the word brings to mind subjects concerning musi
