ASPERGER'S

David Byrne. As an older adult, he realised he had Asperger's, stating that music was his way of communicating when he felt he couldn't do it face to face.

His father used his electrical engineering skills to modify a reel to reel so that his son David could make multi track recordings. 

What I know is that everywhere he went he picked up pieces and made things. You couldn't stop his mad creations from fragments of his reality. It is a special skill and an obsessive focus, unconcerned with other people. It's  more a difference than a disease. 
My best friend in Qatar was Asperger's. Very sharp. The sharpest knife in the drawer. But only one knife for one meat. I took him by the shoulder of his suit and directed him across the fast roads. A highly addictive: an alcoholic who didn't drink any more; a smoker who didn't smoke; 20 cups of coffee a day; 20 cans of coke.

WHAT IS ASPERGERS?

It's at the shallow end of autism. So troubles with interacting socially.
