has anyone ever been to a sensory deprivation tank? i went with some classmates this weekend to a place on the north side of town where you float in 10 inches of hyper salinated water, so you're way more buoyant than normal=effortless floating. it takes a while to adjust to not having any sensory input but then your brain starts doing really weird shit to fill in all the places where the neurons aren't getting any information. i felt sort of asleep, but totally awake at the same time. when the attendant knocked on the door to let me know the time was up it really twisted my sense of time and space. you've got in little earplugs and your ears are submergd so the sound was like being inside of a submarine running trough a turnstile. give it a whirl...i think my first verbal reaction was "man that shit is trippy."
also, the attendant was telling us about going to see Emperor a few weeks ago and how it ripped.

That phrase (sensory deprivation tank) always makes me think of this. The half-awake, half-asleep description is making me interested, though.
ReplyDeletealways wanted to try that. how can i build one? have you ever smoked salvia?
ReplyDeletedude!!!! You could smoke the salvia in the tank!!! Ultimate regession! I'd be surprsed if you didn't leave that thing as a single celled organism.
ReplyDeleteDon't smoke salvia in the tank because it would end up just like that movie Altered States where you turn into a caveman, and then eventually just energy.
