So I'm watching Donnie Darko the other night...you may have seen it - this psychotic kid can perceive these pulse ripples in front of objects that are about to move. A sort of precience. Made me wonder if people who society perceives as "broken" or "crazy" are actually (well, crazy...but also) tuned in to some type of sensory input that mainstream society wouldn't be privvy to. Although hallucinations can seem real to the hallucinator, that's not what I mean. I mean that maybe they can see some facet of objective reality that most others either can't perceive or have long ago disregarded because it contrasts with other input, or with social cues. Perhaps people, at birth, have cerebral abilities that just don't manifest because they're not taught or practiced in the context of it being useful to everyday functioning in society. Hell, maybe if I tried hard enough I could register some kind of bioelectric field around objects. There's a massively charged E.M. flux throughout the planet, so i figure.....ah fuck it. gimme a few more years and i'll come back to the subject with something really hot.
Ran the idea past Sean and he gave me a hot line: "I think that all geniuses are crazy; and all crazy people are touched by God."
Oh and speaking of hallucinations....ah nevermind. hehe
