In Alison's life, color has always been a way to express feelings. She wants people to understand that using the vocal fold for communicating is not necessary; the non-verbal behavior increases the bond between people and is an intimate way of communicating with each other.

Zukies intend to generate emotions through their visual thoughts and thats how they create that bond with us.
