Are these videos psychedelic or just bizarre?

15 Apr

poodlesI have a friend who always sends me video links saying “You’ve got to watch this video! It’s hyper-psychedelic”.

Then, when I watch the videos, they just seem bizarre.

We have endless quarrels about this: He say’s it’s psychedelic. I say it’s  just bizarre.

Then he says: You need to stop making this anachronistic dichotomy between bizarre and psychedelics.

Maybe, I’m wrong. I mean, I’m not very sure, and I admit the boundaries between psychedelic videos and bizarre ones can get blurry.

So what do you think? Are these videos psychedelic or just plain bizarre?

ANAMNESIA : a loss of forgetfulness

12 Apr


This short film is pretty epic and touches on some psychedelic, very Terence McKenna/Martin McLuhan-esque ideas, presented with inspiring imagery. An allegory with multiple interpretations, it conveys insights which usually only jump out once in a DMT-flash.

Caldera

11 Apr

Caldera is an amazing short animation video by Evan Viera, and this is what he says about this video:
CALDERA is inspired by my father’s struggle with schizoaffective disorder. In states of delusion, my father has danced on the rings of Saturn, spoken with angels, and fled from his demons. He has lived both a fantastical and haunting life, but one that’s invisible to the most of us. In our differing understanding of reality, we blindly mandate his medication, assimilate him to our marginalizing culture, and entirely misinterpret him for all he is worth. CALDERA aims to not only venerate my father, but all brilliant minds forged in the haunted depths of psychosis.
