this thread will document some interesting things i come across as im working on a project called PSIDAR, (psychological spiritual imagery demonic archetype research).

the images can be read on a phone but they load compressed on a computer so ill include links.
this thread isnt the reason im doing this but i figure as i come across interesting data i may as well share it.

in case its not clear each single image will always be one person talking unless clearly indicated.
001 - 004

001: person who has never done psychedelics sees baphomet while meditating spontaneously, doesnt know what it is.

002: person on dmt meets a demonic entity that seeks to control them

003, 004: non-religious guy on dmt "goes to hell"

004b (gonna use the system of one person will be 004, 004b, 004c etc from now on)

same guy from before who "went to hell", after hundreds of dmt and ayahusca experiences, is converted from disbelief to a conventional model of demons and stops using dmt

005, 005b

guy does form of ayahusaca with a whore that has a mystical aura. shes silent then presses her head to his. he feels a "voodoo spirit" enter his head + sees baphomet. starts to believe "simpler ideas" about death + god. no trip posts after this

006

non-religious guy concludes the positive things about DMT world are a facade concealing something sinister + "satanic", experiences demonic possession, very dark visions, beings cutting into his body, stops using DMT and still feels off months later

007

popular shamanic teacher hangs himself in a peru apartment, obviously after extended ayahuasca use and searching for knowledge along similar shamanic paths. journalist close with him says he hung himself to intentionally cross over to the other side

008

after recently deciding that "nothing matters, theres no absolute", man smokes DMT and meets a dark evil jester shadow entity in a red realm of blood visions, the being torments him and tells him "if nothing matters, you should kill your friends".

lots of really weird hostile responses to this thread. not that i care but i will just address this one time. im not trying to "prove anything" here, just documenting interesting phenomena. as an artist + person into mystical things, naturally this type of thing would interest me
ill be documenting various archetypes in this thread, some that overlap, some that do not, for a variety of reasons. if you're drawing some odd macro conclusion based on this youre probably projecting your own feelings onto me.

we now return to regularly scheduled programming.
009: guy is possessed / assaulted by dark energy possibly left behind by a friend

010, 010b: guy meets mayan god and starts a relationship with these beings (+ a jester)

011: guy is tortured by beings that look "devilish" and look like an aztec being

imgur.com/gallery/7cq4O46
012,012b: guy transforms into "hindu demons" and becomes a dark "malevolent spirit"

013, 013b: many people report interacting with jesters and seeing jesters
forgot the link on that last one, for anyone on desktop:

imgur.com/gallery/JY5jaUd
014: guys girlfriend has entities repeatedly tell her to kill herself, man describes his negative experience with entities

015, 015b, 015c: experiences of "soul surgery", beings doing a medical procedure on individuals supraphysical body, are very common

imgur.com/gallery/2ey3v4E
016, 016b: john c lilly, famous psychonaut, eventually came to the conclusion that he had been ushered into a cosmic hierarchical order that had some role in orchestrating things on earth, also experiences "psychic surgery"

this ties into the next images

imgur.com/gallery/7Ht1gcj
018: across the spectrum of those experimenting with esoterica, the occult, amateur shamanism, and/or psychedelics, the idea of being inducted into a cosmic hierarchical order of higher beings is extremely common + has strange overlap across time + place

[slaughter in kid's books]

recently, i was discussing with a friend if children's general aversion to killing animals was innate, or a modern phenomenon. his response was that it's completely modern: in fact, it's intentionally implanted as a social control mechanism.

[...] Image
if you distance people from the process of obtaining their food, which entails slaughter, it's easier to control them.

obviously, i have no way of knowing if this is true, but i find this interesting because: i have it. despite my ideology, i have the aversion and always have.
he's showing me pictures on his phone of him butchering a pig: all the organs, the skin, everything. i have no problem with this: actually, i think it's cool, and eat more meat than the average person. but i still feel the slight spiritual recoil. was it spontaneously generated?

one noticeable aspect of older media is that to “be political” for normal people usually just meant adopting a particular niche cause, something like “save tigers”, and to be have the now common level of awareness about day to day politicians and events made you a politics junkie
there was a time within recent memory where being the “political friend” just meant that you thought people shouldnt throw plastic into the ocean. that was it.
‘jesus camp’ (the movie) was only released in 2006. notably in one segment a radio host, who is talking about politicized evangelical christians, says “these people aren’t politicos - they’re your friends and neighbors”. the idea of them “being political” was itself a novelty. Image

i was sitting in an office recently and looked down at a table of magazines. one had a decorated cake on the cover. i asked myself: is it real, or AI? all images will now be run through this hermeneutic. this is, literally, “dehumanizing”: to deprive of positive human qualities.
once again the AI image conversation should be steered away from “is it good or bad?”, “is it cool or lame?” (subjective, no way to prove these) towards: what does it mean? what does it do? but this angle is less explosively polarizing and more difficult to get attention with.
one time i worked at a traveling art exhibition. it was billed as art from egyptian tombs, but it was actually recreations of the art found in egyptian tombs. this was crazy unethical but i got the job via a long convoluted process accidentally, then quit.

zygmunt bauman (modern social theorist) says that the constantly shifting and unclear nature of our time period also applies to interpersonal relationships: no one is quite sure what it means, specifically, to be a parent, a grandparent, a friend, a coworker, and so on.

[…] Image
this sounds nonsensical at first - we can define all these terms easily: what a friend or grandparent is. but no one is clear on the obligations that these relationships entail, their day to day norms, what is expected, what assumptions are being made on either side: all unclear.
you see this a lot with present discussions about new parents looking to their parents to step into the role of grandparent. what does that look like, specifically? what is to be expected? this is a huge source of frustration and tension for many people, with no clear answer.

the white house actually used to look like this (this is not a joke) Image

photos instead of paintings (all this was later removed): Image

this is one of my favorite image parings to show people. in person when you swipe back and forth you can sometimes see it rewire something in their brain about america. same room in the white house, before and after: Image

it looks like the AI conversation is going to cement around “are artists are coping or not” but id like to submit a second option: that its worthy of skepticism that my broke friends are beholden to copyright laws that apparently don’t apply to tech people making a lot of money
the AI question really should be: are we doing wild west on copyright laws or not. if we are, okay - then that should apply to everyone. if we’re not - okay, then that should apply to everyone. everyone is basically arguing that now tech companies get to be the exception to them.
if my friends can get cease and desist letters for making fanart about a movie or franchise when money gets involved but a guy can also make a billion dollars feeding that movie and franchise into his image maker and selling access to it, i dont think its out of line to ask: what
