Back in the 1960s, in the height of the psychedelic era, even the house band of the Israeli army’s infantry division “Nahal” started dabbling in psychedelics. Taking this well known traditional hymn “My dear son Ephraim” (Ha-Ben Yakir Li Ephraim), mixing it with some psychedelic sounds and images as well as some shtetel style, the band created this unique and quite extraordinary clip. Enjoy.

The eternal male archetype with its many forms goes on a dance with the eternal female archetype with its many forms, shape-shifting across the dance floor, in this amusing and very special animation by Gerrit Van Dijk,
A few months ago the internet was raging about the new psychedelic videos released by Google. Apparently, when you take Google’s artificial neural networks (ANN) which recognize patterns in images and cause them to reiterate in loops, highly psychedelic patterns emerge, which caused many to ponder the ways in which these ANN’s can teach us about the psychedelic nature of reality and our consciousness. While Samy has already dedicated a great post to this issue, it seems like a good time for a retrospective of the Google ANN phenomena. So here are some of those psychedelic mind boggling courtesy of Google’s Deep Dream algorithm.
First some explanation of how these images are created:

Roman de Guili stages tiny universes which exist for miniscule periods of time on a glass plate, he then augments them and exposes the rich life within these spaces, invisible to the naked eye. 70 hours of shooting to create “an organic, non-generated character, establishing a truly reliable cosmos.” No color corrections, no composition, no CGI. Nothing but the breathtaking beauty which naturally emerges from the mixture of water, oil and color.
“Chih Han (Hannah) Lin’s Purusha (2015) is a 2.5D animation about a biomorphic character of the same name, who wishes to be beautiful. She lives in a world with other creatures whose elaborate patterns she envies and seeks to steal for her own use. Purusha’s use of experimental colors and patterns in a watercolor-like painting style evokes a mysterious imaginary world that conveys the important message of loving oneself as one is.”
