#symptomatology — Public Fediverse posts

It’s #WorldEmbroideryDay ! I make #SciArt #embroidery of #anatomy and #symptomatology. After I got sick with #MECFS in 2015 I started stitching as a more restorative creative practice than my previous music and theatre work.

It’s #PortfolioDay! I’m a multidisciplinary artist whose visual work is #SciArt #symptomatology and #anatomy #embroidery. I’m also a writer and composer.

#Lassa fever #symptomatology, viral dynamics, and host immune response (PREPARE): a prospective, observational cohort study in #Liberia, https://etidiohnew.blogspot.com/2026/01/lassa-fever-symptomatology-viral.html

Day 22 #ArtAdventCalendar • This #SciArt #symptomatology #embroidery depicts the neurological fatigue of post-exertional malaise (PEM), the hallmark symptom of #MECFS: neuraesthenia (2017).

Day 21 #ArtAdventCalendar • This #SciArt #anatomy & #symptomatology #embroidery depicts my uterus with its fibroids, ovarian cysts, and endometrial cancer prior to my hysterectomy in 2022. Bleeding Vessel (2022).

Day 20 #ArtAdventCalendar • This #MECFS #symptomatology #embroidery, paresthesia (face) (2016), looks abstract at first glance, but is a visualization of the tingling I felt on my face at the time.

Day 15 #ArtAdventCalendar • This is a de­piction of the tingling in my tongue due to #MECFS: paresthesia (tongue 2) (2018). #SciArt #symptomatology #embroidery

Day 14 #ArtAdventCalendar • This #symptomatology #embroidery is of the paresthesia and pulling sensa­tions in my hands at the time: push, pull, & tingle (2018). #SciArt

Day 12 #ArtAdventCalendar • This #SciArt #anatomy & #symptomatology #embroidery, sensorium (2016), is about how hypersensitive my nervous system has become since the onset of #MECFS. I also used this as an album cover for my composition The Hum. Read more here: https://liapas.com/2024/03/15/the-hum/

Day 11 #ArtAdventCalendar • One of my larger pieces, stars within, stars without (2017) illustrates the shift in my paresthesias from overwhelming to bearable. #MECFS #symptomatology #SciArt #embroidery

Day 9 #ArtAdventCalendar • This #embroidery work combines #anatomy and #symptomatology into #SciArt. Here is body map (2016), in which I stitched my neurological #MECFS symptoms freehand as I felt them.

Day 6 #ArtAdventCalendar • Another #SciArt #symptomatology #embroidery, this one about my iliac vein compression sydrome and the stent I have to repair it: deep dilation (2025).

Day 5 #ArtAdventCalendar • This is my first #MECFS #symptomatology #embroidery: paresthesia (hand 1) 2016. The idea came to me while doing a meditation technique to dissect the tingling sensations in my body to make them less overwhelming. #SciArt

Day 4 #ArtAdventCalendar • One of my #SciArt text/image #embroidery pieces, tethered by fluid & lig­aments (2023), combines #anatomy with #symptomatology of my recent biliary issues from Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis #PSC.

Day 2 #ArtAdventCalendar & #WomensBrainHealthDay • This #SciArt #symptomatology #embroidery is loosely based on a Ramon y Cajal drawing and depicts the electrical fog I feel in my brain due to #MECFS: she was tributaries (2016).

There’s a piece about my #SciArt #symptomatology #embroidery series in the latest issue of Interalia Magazine.

For #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek: The paresthesia/tingling in my hands doesn't usually interfere with my day to day but it worsens during my migraines. This #symptomatology #embroidery maps one of those days: push, pull, & tingle (2018)

For #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek: One of my more disconcerting #MECFS symptoms is the paresthesia/tingling on my tongue. It worsens whenever I overextend myself. This #symptomatology #embroidery maps how my tongue usually feels: paresthesia (tongue 2) 2018

For #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek: May Thurner Syndrome (#IliacVein compression syndrome) seems to be a common comorbidity with #MECFS. This #symptomatology #embroidery is based off a venogram of my stent: deep dilation (2025)

For #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek: One of my main #MECFS symptoms is multiple paresthesias (tingling). This #symptomatology #embroidery maps the paresthesias in my face: paresthesia (face) 2016

For #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek: This #symptomatology #embroidery, neuraesthenia (2017) explores the sensation of post-exertional malaise (PEM), the hallmark symptom of #MECFS. When I overextend myself physically, cognitively, or emotionally, I am too fatigued to even wash myself.

This week is #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek. My chronic illnesses are an invisible disability, especially #MECFS. ME/CFS is a neuroimmune disease that has a worse quality of life measurement than any other. This #Sciart #symptomatology #embroidery, body map, maps out my symptoms as they were in 2016.

"#Culturalstudies — even music and arts journalism more broadly — had an unfortunate tendency to treat cultural artefacts like the capitalist elite, perhaps not consciously but certainly as a result of their pervasive influence. In this sense, #ChildrenOfMen becomes a hyperbolic rendering of the present, and so #Fisher puts it back to work on us, presenting "#capitalistrealism" — the belief that the end of the world is easier to imagine than the end of capitalism — immediately as a #symptomatology of the late capitalist condition, excavated from its own cultural offerings."
