Imagine being a schizophrenic and dropping acid :D

@BlueZuluFoxtrot That's exactly what I thought. This is not a man progressing away from reality, but deeper into it. Modern psychiatry will institutionalize all the poor souls who realize who they really are...the universe itself, everything, a playing of patterns and vibrations...But psychiatry cannot accept altered states of consciousness that claim divinity, just as Jesus was at first condemned for calling himself a Son of God.

@BlueZuluFoxtrot they didn't diagnose him with schizophrenia because of his paintings, but his behaviour... if they did, i would be in an insane asylum by now.

@azuriteteeth In case you haven't found it yet, the song is called "midnight", by Joe Satriani ;]



That's no schizophrenic, that's him seeing a different level of reality that "normal" humans don't see. I love how our psychiatric system in their supreme arrogance and hubris thinks that they know what "normal" brains do and what "craziness" is. They understand absolutely nothing about the brain (or about the universe that the brain is interpreting). Louis Wain was probably metamorphising into a god and they locked him in a mental hospital.
