    I'm new, any nerds out there?

    Hello, I'm new to the site- let me introduce myself :) I was diagnosed as having high-functioning autism about a decade ago. I just moved to a new city in the Midwest which, sadly, does not have a lot of options or opportunities for me to meet other people- especially others on the spectrum-...

    I have a treasure trove of weird ideas to write & draw....

    I've posted before that I love to draw comics. It might seem weird to see someone like me complain that I have too many ideas to draw. But I do! And I have issues deciding, it's like it just blows up in a big dilemma over nothing thinking about it. Do any of you guys suffer from this alot? What...

    Do you have a special interest you are passionate about? Your help is need in starting a magazine!

    As a sixteen -year old with Asperger’s syndrome I know all too well, how it feels to share extensive knowledge on your passion with someone, only to be met with blank expressions; bored by your knowledge regarding the history of mechanical keyboards, disengaged by your talk on your extensive...

    What was the last thing you made?

    Recently I've made a tool that I can use while blowing in canned styrofoam, it's used to keep the styrofoam from slipping/falling into the wrong place, where it sticks like glue. At the moment I'm making squash soup for lunch. What things have you made recently? Whether it be art, food, tools...

    The Expression of Art

    Art is a wonderful tool of expression around the world, it allows us to freely express ones mind, thoughts and feelings. When you think of art, you might think of a paint brush and a big white square to paint on, but it's much more than that. Art can be in any shape or form, being created as a...

    Masters autism arts dissertation help

    I've decided that I'd like to do my masters dissertation on the value of arts participation, particularly in relation to autism as I'm on the spectrum. I'm on the look out for case studies for this. I was wondering if anyone could point me in a good direction. I'm interested in things like: How...

    Student Makes a NSFW Art Piece Depicting Aftermath of Sexual Assault

    I saw this story yesterday, and the piece that she made is strangely beautiful to me, and also really powerful. I'll post the link, rather than the piece itself, in case there's anyone who doesn't want to see it. To be completely honest (in case you're worried about clicking the link) it is...

    Hi! I guess this is my second thread of the day...... lol..... (Aspergers is so confusing man) But yeah, does anyone here get confused when they see modern art (or any art with a deep meaning)? I either don't even try to work it out or I come to some really far-reaching conclusion,,, I'm an...

    My young son has Asperger syndrome and is on his way to becoming an outstanding artist.

    I like drawing... A whole lot. [Violence Warning]

    I figured I might as well share my obsession: Drawing. Not just any kind of drawing, my focus within art is pretty narrow, as much as I know I should expand my horizon to improve as an artist. I, so to speak, "specialize" in drawing expressive cartoon characters, usually focusing on a select few...

    Hi!

    Hi I'm Julia. I'm 22 years old and just got diagnosed with Aspergers syndrome. I've always suspected that my ADD diagnosis as a child was either incomplete or misdiagnosed. Once I graduated college, I decided to get reevaluated. I like drawing, graphic design, painting, and ceramics. I'm also a...
