On 2001/11/17 08:39, Shadowspace posted thus to the K-list: You are exactly right as far as the act of creation is concerned. It
involves solidifying thoughts and ideas in something that can be seen, or
heard, or I suppose touched or smelled. The possibilities in the external
world seem limited in a sense to "reality," while internal
experience-dreaming, meditating, hallucinating-is almost always
accompanied with warped perceptions of reality, things that seem
ludicrous or enrapturing or frightening because they look realistic, but
compared to our previous experience, it's not SUPPOSED to happen.
Have you heard the song "Third Eye" by Tool? It's an excellent example of
how experience can be translated into art and clearly communicate the
original event or thought.
I paint, play guitar, and write, so I'm kind of open to all kinds of art.
I feel like they cross-pollinate. You can paint a sound, write a picture,
play a sentence and punctuate it.
Actually, I've been looking for Max Cough in a few nearby stores and
haven't found it. I'm not doing anything that has any other ingredients
besides DXM because that's recklessly self-destructive.
Hmm...perhaps a 25g bag of DXM would be a good idea. Damn, that would
last a loooooong time. Like a few years or more.
A lot of my friends do Coricidin, which has other ingredients that
another friend of mine almost died from (fever, slow heartbeat, shallow
breathing). And the rest of these idiots said, "Oh, you can't possibly be
sick. We had the same amount." and refused to take her to the hospital.
I've tried to wean them all onto Max Cough, but they've gotten attached
to their little red death pills and won't let go, even though the
intoxicating effect, which is their ultimate goal, is present in greater
amounts in the Robi and is the sole active ingredient.
Needless to say, I will be careful. I know the dosages, I think-about
200-300 mg, right?
Thanks,

of appearances, illusion. I called my eyes and tongue, chance. Now it is
over; I have awakened. I have indeed awakened and have only been born
today."
