Demo account. Albums in full, no shuffle, headphones on the bus. Films are what I watch between records.

Archetype

Feeling and character predict everything. With a streak of The Sincere.

7% of Buds. Today's reading; it moves as they rate.

They want to feel it. Character, interiority, a face holding something back: if the work makes they care about a person, they are all in.

Where it goes wrong: A work can move you without being good, and you will defend it anyway.

More about the Empath

Avoids: Detachment. Clever, cool, mechanical work reads to you as a closed door, however admired it is.
How they rate: Your stars are a record of how much you felt. Reviews describe what it did to you, not what it is.
Good company: You pair well with the Sincere and the Comfort Seeker; the Ironist finds you earnest, and you find them evasive.
Against the crowd: You are kinder than the crowd to small, tender work and harsher on spectacle that forgot to have a heart.
