Fungal daydreaming.

Contact High

3 Aug


Sometimes nothing is more psychedelic than a Disney movie. The bright colors and archetypal figures often evoke the puerile side of altered states. This video uses footage from Fantasia (1940) with Architecture in Helsinki’s song “Contact High.”

Continuum Infinitum

Ben Ridgeway has some great animations of tryptaminesque topographies. The one above is a kind of dimensional unfolding, and the one below is a perfect rendering of ayahuasca-vison.

“Cuentos Huicholes de la creation” is a trailer for what would be a feature film based on ancient stories of the Huichol people, a native American group from Central Mexico. It makes use of  Huichol style paintings in a fantastic way.

Jeff Scher taps into the spirit of early experimental, abstract films. This piece is not painted directly on film although Jeff has done that, too.

Nicos Livesey anoints your troubled soul with smooth stratabutter.

Tortov Roddle and his long-legged pig friend are having a really good time with some red berries.
