From Mickey Mouse to Michael Jackson, and Hawaiian traditional song to Kabuki, the falsetto sound is ingrained within our consciousness around the world. What does it evoke, and what does it express? Conflating the intangibility of the countertenor sound with the invisibility of smell molecules in the air, this synesthetic concert experience explores how invisible information can provoke emotion and imprint memory.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
