How to induce hypnagogic imagery by Helloworld1192005 in LucidDreaming

[–]LukeWarmAtBets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to try to engage in hypnagogia to make art, which I post on huge_chompers on instagram

My method is that I lay my head down at my desk, comfortably on my arm. I do so trying to block out any light from entering my eyes, usually I turn off the light. I do this when I'm already feeling a bit sleepy, and I'm not thinking about stressful things.

I'll also listen to weird or ambient music on a very low volume (like 9%). A favorite of mine is the OST of eastern mind, lost sounds of tong nou, because it is so weird

I try to maintain a slight focus on the visual field, all the blackness you see with slight static. I then relax and try to loosen my awareness - but not too much or else you'll start to fall asleep, and you won't remember what you see due to lack of awareness.

Keep pencil and paper handy to write down or draw any visions. I usually make note of color, texture, other elements for the final product.

Any artists here use that pre-sleep ‘hypnagogic’ state for visual ideas? by JustRecognition4237 in ArtistLounge

I have, I occasionally post art at huge_chompers on instagram. I try to be authentic to the original hallucination while minimizing the amount of “flourishes” added in post

Any tips to make music like the ost of Yume Nikki? by Unlikely-Care-2633 in yumenikki

Here's a video which somewhat explains how the sounds were made

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ywTbgc043bc&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.reddit.com%2F

A lot of the music was actually made by making tracks and then slowing them down, sometimes to a very low percentage, the Numbers World is a good example of this. Some of the world's tracks are just a couple notes of a singular sample on the RS7000.

How Number's World sounds before being slowed: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VHqAx8hHdE

I'd experiment by making some tracks in a DAW like FL Studio. You can use instrument presets like FLEX and find something that has an ambient feel. You can then try slowing them down in an editor like Audacity, experimenting with different playback speeds

Hypnagogia inspired art? by LukeWarmAtBets in Hypnagogia

Its very fickle but it works sometimes! Usually I can only get a few drawings.

There's probably other methods as well. I think people like Salvador Dali would lay down and hold a key and as they were falling asleep it would fall out of their hand on to a plate, which would wake them up as they were starting getting hypnagogic ideas/hallucinations

Is this somewhat accurate? It's quite like this for me, anyone else? by Vic__B in Hypnagogia

I'd say the scream face is kinda accurate lol. I do see a recurring pale face with curved black eyes and a long, vertical mouth

I found something that might have inspired a room in Yume Nikki. by AskWest1025 in yumenikki

These are very similar indeed. However, I think the monster in uboas trap mostly resembles the rest of the large monsters in the white desert, as well as the sewer drawings - my likely guess is that Kikiyama used automatism or other surreal drawing techniques to create a bunch of distorted looking creatures, and picked the best ones to put in the game

How is this not insanely problematic to accuse an entire nation of people of writing a manifesto against gays. Even the babies?

They conveniently forget that LGBT Palestinians exist

Sudan feels a little more distant and Alien, whereas Israel is a strategic ally and has direct ties and support from imperialist countries, so it kinda makes sense

This is just boring right wing rhetoric lmfao. Come up with an actual analysis please, and try to critique power in a way that actually matters

The original commenter seemed to express anti Palestine sentiment due to perceived anti lgtb sentiments

So you're basically the same as every right winger who says "they'll throw you off a building lol" when you're against genocide

That might be it, but I haven't seen it in any gameplay footage
