I've known about the two projects for literally 20+ years, but wow I never knew it was the same person behind them....


view as:

Slight divergence of topic here, but is there a word for this phenomenon? Namely, when you know of a person through two very different channels and find out they are the same person. It happens to me frequently enough that I feel like it deserves at least a neologism of some sort, but I don't have anything catchy.

(I find it especially happens with bands; I had listened to both Failure and Autolux for years before finding out they shared a guitarist, for instance.)
