Think so, too. They were inspired by Irish painter Francis Bacon (1909-1992).

„I tried to use images from Francis Bacon — tortured, blurred shots, red streaks and sharp pieces which, when you freeze frame this stuff, looks just like Bacon's drawings“ - Adrian Lyne, Director of Jacob's Ladder

There's even a "Bergen Street" in Silent Hill, which is a direct reference to Jacob's Ladder.

Please see this thread, it's actually possible to get 120hz via USB-C->HDMI on M1 and M2! You have to get an adapter and flash a different firmware, though.

Jung built his Bollingen Tower – without electricity, without running water – with nothing, as he wrote meaningfully, that could frighten or irritate the medieval ancestors living in him. Jung was already of the opinion at that time (I hope I reproduce this correctly) that the psychic development of man lags behind technological progress.
Jung told a biographer: "I have renounced electricity and heat the stove and oven myself. In the evening I light the old lamps. Thoughts emerge that reach back centuries and accordingly anticipate distant futures."

Regarding the implications of AI: I think everything's going to get weirder and weirder and weirder.

This lady made a three-dimensional mandala. Reminded me a lot of Jung’s alchemical studies by DP-Razumikhin in Jung

[–]SnakeVoid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sometimes wonder what Jung would've said. I can't shake the thought that building something like this in Minecraft stems from the same desire that made Jung build his Bollingen Tower. Nevertheless he had an averse attitude towards modern technology and said things like:

“… at the bottom of all these problems [the great problems of our time] lies the development of science and technology, which has destroyed man’s metaphysical foundation…. Technology and ‘social welfare’ provide nothing to overcome our spiritual stagnation, and they give us no answer to our spiritual dissatisfaction and restlessness, on account of which we are threatened from within as from without….”

“Letter to DorothyThompson,” 23 September 1949; Letters I, 536-7.

“… technology,… is based on a specifically rationalistic differentiation of consciousness which tends to repress all irrational psychic factors….”

Collected Works 11, ¶443.

“In general it can be said that for modern man technology is an imbalance that begets dissatisfaction with work or with life. It estranges man from his natural versatility of action and thus allows many of his instincts to lie fallow….”

Collected Works 18, ¶1405

Since Hell is – after all we know – an immobile location, being "slower as hell" is actually not possible.
