Hi, I'm Hazel ยฐโ€ง๐“† ๐“†Ÿ ๐“†žยท๏ฝก

I'm currently a PhD researcher in music psychology at Durham University, exploring what happens in people's mind when listening to music โ€” the images, stories, memories, and strange inner worlds that music influences, shapes, and colours. An imagination cartographer perhaps, mapping the thoughtscapes of the mind sculpted by music.
Equal parts scientist and dreamer. Have you tried dreaming with the lights on?

"No idea is mine, it is simply a fish I caught."

Let go of ownership.
Learn to swim with the currents of inspiration and share in the delights of the catch.
The joy is not in possessing the fish, but in the act of fishing itself โ€” the thrill of discovery, the dance with the unknown, and the shared indulgence in what we catch together.
Creativity is a vast ocean teeming with ideas, curiosity is the best bait, but a full net is always better reeled in with others.
Let's go fishing!
