In “Snowdrop,” Snowdrop presumably makes the first snowflake by touch, but seeing as it’s an animation we can only see it. The snowflake is thus the visual representation of the tactile experience of the sound of a star twinkling. The phrase “Bwa?” comes to mind.
It's a little known fact that blind horses develop synesthesia to compensate for their vision loss. Science!
lol
I should play Rez someday…
