b'(lamp): I have an idea what autism is: switched on, lighted up, plugged in, spark, light-bulb moment, illuminated, brilliant, a light in the darkness, fairy-light enlightened, glowing, luminous. And I can describe a lamp in lots of ways.\\n---\\nThe lamp represents a fleeting moment of an idea where you can feel switched on to what Autism is.\\n\\nThis is my idea of Autism:\\nEveryone has their own ideas.\\n\\nIt\\u2019s interesting to think about how ideas affect neurology. They say, \\u201cif you meet one person with Autism, you\\u2019ve met one person with Autism\\u201d. I can\\u2019t quite remember who \\u201cthey\\u201d is, I\\u2019m pretty sure it\\u2019s one of my friends.\\n\\nIt\\u2019s hard to have a collective understanding of Autism because we are a group of very specialized people. The thing we have in common, is often feeling we do not have very much in common with anyone.\\n\\nConcept & Artwork: Mishka'
