RE: The Leap - The Stoned Ape Theory and Psilocybin's Impact On Creativity

in #art7 years ago

Those are some awesome descriptions there! I've seen that intricate machinery too, and architecture beyond anything on Earth for reference, and that acute realization of what it was I was seeing- beyond words. You captured it well!

One thing that I thought of when I was looking at the art was the first time I experienced mushrooms, I saw a distinct grid pattern in the night sky, as if it had always been there. It covered the sky, going behind the trees and vanishing behind the horizon. The way I knew that it was a hallucination was that the peak of the grid, or the center, was directly over me, and I thought the chance of that was slim, that I would be at the very middle of something so grand. Haven't seen it since!
Thanks for the great work here, I'll follow back to keep up with this!

Heheh You caught them:) Thanks for the feedback friend. I don't indulge in psilocybin too frequently anymore. I have had my ass kicked really hard more than once and I thought "hmm maybe this just isnt my deal". Stuff that lasted for years, inflated sense of purpose and self that literally took a decade just to integrate. All for the better ultimately, but damn. The DMT flash is more in line with how my mind works nowadays. Its a tough one to get the courage up for but each time I do I am glad I did. It leaves all of my faith and spirit in tact, which I appreciate very much. The sense of timelessness that hits so hard doesn't leave me wondering if I will ever see my family again. Lol.

Yeah I tried to get reacquainted with mushrooms a few years ago, it was a bit awkward, a sort of public naked feeling there, by myself. Some of the art on your post about 10 unknown artists was very familiar looking, like I'd seen the place that was being depicted, but that's a story also beyond words!

Yeah I am going to keep doing those top 10 lists. Probably another one this weekend. There is a massive amount of art out there. I feel a lot of these guys deserve to be recognized by a wider audience. Spreading the work I think is the least I can do considering the influence that so many of them have had on me.
