INTP (5w4)
Jonathan Coulton personality type is INTP, which is usually connected to music. Coulton was also a member of the band The Audio Foundation.
I am convinced that this type is not related to the type of the famous American writer, Anne McCaffery (ISFP), who wrote the popular dragons series of books.
It is not clear to me how the writer is connected to the type of the musician. The two are completely different.
I think that Coulton is less likely ISFP than INTJ (he is sensitive, but that’s not enough).
There are many indications that Coulton is an INTP. The main one is that he did not use any auxiliary function in his early songs, which is typical for INTP. He also had a blog with his philosophy about life and writing songs.
But my opinion about Coulton’s type is not very significant. I think that it would be interesting to research the type of popular musicians or writers, but I have doubts about the theory about music being an auxiliary function of the INTP.
I think that it is more likely that our perception of music is constructed in our imagination, which is just one of the functions of the mind.
