it just occurred to me that some of my salvia trips are almost isomorphic with the descriptions of visual migranes, or 'auras'...except it's not limited to one side of the visual field.
Quoted:
"Seeing multitudes of tiny, identical structures, sometimes “unrolling” steadily, sometimes flickering, forming and reforming, all over the visual field, is common in migraine auras, though it is only occasionally that these are elaborated into tiny skulls, or arrays of faces or animals or other objects."EDIT: whoops, should've kept reading, the association with self-induced drug hallucinations is already brought up here.
..."Klüver spoke here of hallucinatory “form constants” and the tendency to “geometrization,” to the “geometrical-ornamental,” seemingly built into the brain-mind. The visions produced by mescal and other hallucinogens would usually progress from these elementary forms of hallucination to elaborate visions of a much more personal and sometimes mystical sort (including scenes of people, animals, and landscapes). But Klüver remarked that the lower-level, geometric hallucinations that preceded these were identical to those found in a variety of conditions: migraine, sensory deprivation, low blood sugar, fever, delirium, or the hypnopompic and hypnagogic states that come immediately before and after sleep. Indeed, even in the absence of any special medical conditions, they could be evoked in anyone by flickering lights, or sometimes even by simply applying pressure to the eyes."

Shaviro has an interesting 2-part introduction discussion of Ranciere here which i found particularly provocative at points given his bent towards Kant and Deleuze.

"Radio Astronomy is an art and science project which broadcasts sounds intercepted from space live on the internet and on the airwaves.
Listeners will hear the acoustic output of radio telescopes live. The content of the live transmission will depend on the objects being observed by partner telescopes. On any given occasion listeners may hear the planet Jupiter and its interaction with its moons, radiation from the Sun, activity from far-off pulsars or other astronomical phenomena.
Radio Astronomy enables listeners to tune into to different celestial frequencies, hearing planets, stars, nebulae, and the constant hiss of cosmic noise. It reveals the sonic character of objects in our galaxy, and in the process perhaps make these phenomena more tangible and comprehensible. The project is indeed radio astronomy in the strict sense - a radio station devoted to broadcasting sounds from space."

the thief in me loves these little success stories. and the gutsy ones even more, like this one.
Quoted: THE thief who stole a $1.4 million masterpiece from Sydney's Art Gallery of NSW may have slipped it under a coat after unscrewing the painting from a wall, the gallery's head admits.

Holy jebus how have I never heard of this before?!!!
this is the best site I've found in FOREVS!~An independent, completely free archive that operates without official funding, is a peerless source of brilliant artistic materials, ranging from previously impossible-to-locate clips such as a1973 interview of Jacques Lacan by his son-in-law Jacques-Alain Miller on French television, to Richard Kern's grainy, dark, pornographic art/punk films from the 1980s.

Out of curiosity I read occasionally briefs about SEO conferences and seminars. And I have the impression that I see the same old faces all over again. I also get invitations to spend several thousand dollars to participate in these happenings. Well, there is a better way to spend hard earned money than listening to SEO basics over and over again.
