Do you ever try to draw your visual hallucinations? I have thought about trying for some reason.
Don't know that I've ever seen something that wasn't there, although I have interpreted something I saw as something far different than reality.
Can you be more specific?
I like to draw faces and sometimes I see some interesting ones. Like in the carpet especially. But I'm not sure if I can draw fast enough before it goes away.
Ah. Kind of like cloud animals or faces. Imagined or at least built on by imagination.
No, never tried to draw one (I can't draw a stick figure) and trying to photograph it and draw it later sounds like an exercise in futility.
That's an interesting thought. I've never tried. A friend of mine photographed his coffee one morning because foam appeared in the shape of Scooby Doo. At least it wasn't the Virgin Mary on toast.
Try this: Get ceiling tiles that are textured. Look for shapes in them. As they appear, use charcoal to define them. After you get good at this, you could go on to clouds. After you get good at sketching what you see in the clouds, you can tune into your minds eye. I have created abstract paintings based on what I actually saw very clearly in my mind's eye / imagination.
Its strange , that ability to imagine. The more you practice, the more you can picture what you want to see. Its a skill that develops with time and practice.
I couldn't attempt that. I remember, years ago, a tv episode about faces you found in the patterns in the wall being real and if you focused on one it would come out of the wall and make you take it's place. Scared the beejesus out of me. Since then if I see a face, I look away.
Never make eye contact. That's the trick to survival.

A few months ago, Pratonix stated that poetry should be compact, in good form, and without spelling error. It was argued that poetry can be anything. I agree with Pratonix. Gushing emotion in poetry is as bad as gushing emotion in reality. It's uncontrolled. Poetry...

Critical thinkers are in the minority these days. Between 1900 and about 1960, critical thinking was taught at schools so that people would reject magical thinking. During the past thirty or forty years, with the decline of solid academic education, more and more people have reverted to magical...
