lucas masoch
Hi! I'm the guy behind Baumarius and Syamori, as well as the founder of MasochMusic. I'm a Puerto Rican artist based in Pittsburgh, PA and spend most of my time creating, hiking, and contemplating the nature of things. I'm a musician, composer, digital artist, ink artist, furry, therian, and more.
I spent much of my life in isolation from the doomsday cult I was raised in (which I escaped from on a plane at 18), during which I developed a form of synesthesia that allows me to perceive music as color, forms, and textures in a three-dimensional space within my mind's eye. I can also "see" emotion and touch, both pleasure and pain. I've made videos showing how this phenomenon looks and feels in real time, though their development is currently in hiatus while I focus on other projects that will do it better. The style of my music and artwork is influenced heavily by my synesthesia and liberated from my upbringing.
I'm also developing games that will make those forms of synesthesia playable. One of these games, Tenera ("teh-nair-uh"), will follow the journey of a telepathic wolf born on the outskirts of an abandoned metropolis. In search of friendship in a rapidly mutating world, he must find a way to survive the post-apocalyptic year 2237 and uncover the truth buried within the ruins of our civilization...
