Alchemy Of Art
We live in a time where there’s 50,000 opinions and a conspiracy theory for every single thought that comes into your mind. A painting on your wall, a work of art with no ulterior motive but to inspire you, an experience your subconscious doesn’t have to pay for - simple medicine for your heart and your head.
The Psychedelic Abstract
Sitting with the Medicine of Alex Carlbon
by Nils I. Palsson
There is a close and intricate relationship between medicine and art.
Medicine comes from the Latin mederi, meaning “to heal, cure,” and originally “to know the best course for” — from the root med- “to measure, consider, advise.”
Art comes from the Latin artem, meaning “skill or craft” — from the root ar- “to fit, join together,” as in the word arm.
Doors of Perception
I had this dream - I had this boat and it was really truly amazing. In the next moment the boats sinking and there's holes in it and I'm dragging it behind me, wading through all this thick yellow and green algae; the whole time I was reassuring everyone swimming around me how truly great it is to own a boat.
