I mean, taking some dumb drug and then be unable to draw even a smiley face thing seems pretty plausible to me. Has he done krokodil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Symptoms of an allergic reaction include rash, itching, swelling, trouble breathing, or red, blistered, swollen or peeling skin. Lol.

Guest have lost touch Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 http://www.vice.com/read/getting-abilified-with-bryan-saunders All true, BLS is quite a down to earth fellow and as mentioned above - not a partier. His spoken work/stand-up tragedy is great (seen it live) very different sort of experience. This is probably one of my favorites (he tours with films playing and noise/music and speaks live over them)- https://vimeo.com/19574111 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was spacing on who HST might be, then I was like "crazy cat paintings guy?" & googled exactly that sans question mark. First result Wikipedia article for Louis Wain.

He's shining a black light onto the very real place that is the twisted and tortured, yet strangely mundane world that seems to exist in every town. The griminess is out there, everywhere.

gaarg Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Drawings sometimes seem a bit too mush like illustrations of what you would be experiencing. Anyhow, some of them are nice and make me wanna try hard drugs, so he achieved that much. I agree with the idea, stated before, that he should have tried drawing a realistic portrait every time, even using a mirror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kinski Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 is there really any effect to nicotine gum? I agree with the idea, stated before, that he should have tried drawing a realistic portrait every time, even using a mirror. there was an experiment with an artist drawing a realistic selfportait every hour while on lsd and results were much more itneresting, can't find it now though.

Guest abusivegeorge Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 I much preferred this http://journist.com/...-orgasms-a-day/ But when reading through these symptoms: Ramsey suffers from Persistent Genital Arousal Disorder (PGAD), which means, “even the slightest pelvic movement, on a train, in a car, doing housework, makes her feel constantly aroused.” I thought, "that's totally normal" Good thread though!

kichiguy Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I saw this guy perform live at the schimpfulch carnival yesterday. He basically went on an intense psychotic rant over a noisey backing track set to some disturbing medical footage. Had a hard time getting into it cuz I couldn't get past how much his voice sounded like eminem's (imo). But in retrospect, he seems legit re:op.

Guest drukqs Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 As for the "FAEK" accusations... I don't know man. Take a look at some of his other (sober) self portraits. They have a VERY wide range of detail, shape, color, consistency. A lot.of it seems to have to do with his mood, etc. I don't think it's far fetched at all. He's a pretty skilled artist as it is.

I agree with this, I definitely think he's a legit artist. Its only sad that I seem to be more enthralled by the way he lives his life, then his art itself...at least this self portrait project.

Guest Hanratty Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I don't think I believe the premise at all. The drawings seem too intentionally representational of the misconceptions of how these drugs work/the effects of the drug. For example, 1 bump of crystal meth wouldn't make that substantial of a difference in the drawing abilities of this guy to make him make that illustration versus the other pictures.... Another example is the nicotine gum. No way in hell would that affect a persons interpretation of their self enough to make that picture... Still neat though. =) i have to agree, my friend showed me this week and i had to call bullshit on it. Fun concept, but would have been cooler if it seemed real. it's art, not science. if a different person did the same thing the pictures would look totally different. I just think he could do these portraits sober easily enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
