i've long maintained that flaps can be musically represented by an envelope follower driving a wahwah pedal. i played coil's "disco hospital" just now, and i realized the autowah on the drums exemplifies this. though it's not flapping terribly hard, it definitely flaps

january the 22nd ~
i took a moment to believe that the helicopters were following me, even though i didn't.
afterwards, they still weren't.
it was worth a shot.

"For context, a femtosecond is to a second as a second is to about 31.71 million years" --wikipedia
"For context, an attosecond is to a second what a second is to about 31.71 billion years." --wikipedia
that's a really fast camera.

i don't think thoughts can properly be stolen. the mind is a devilish maze of references to references to references and you can't just take a thought from one brain and put it into another. it wouldn't work. it doesn't even fit. it's like trying to plug a usb cable into a three-phase outlet or a banana into a car's gas tank or any sort of incredibly mismatched technical and/or fruit metaphor.
i figure some people just hear their own thoughts before they're done thinking 'em up. hearing it twice, half-thought, then half-on-top-of fruit metaphors, sounds confusing to me. certainly might feel like you keep trying to think when the russian femtocopters that flew up your nostrils keep radioing back your thoughts to moscow and goddamn it i can't think flap with this flap noise flap flap every flap thingflap i think flap makesflap my brainflapflapFLAPFLSDFLOSDOPFPLSDfplpppantsthatfit

this is pretty accurate as to how voice hearing feels, yeah. you end up finishing the half-formed thought that feels like a 2nd (or 3rd or 4th or 5th) party started for you. it's pretty weird meng

As you know probably, when it comes to hearing voices, it's a completely different ball game when you don't hear your own. When it's "exterior".

i can imagine it's pretty nasty, yeah. i had a habit of not answering the door because i could no longer tell if it was my imagination that there was anyone there, with the banging i mean. mind you i was smoking a lot of synthetic cannabinoids at the time and blaming it on the chinese government beaming sinicuichi (sp?) into my head. drugs can do funny, funny things to ya

i used to suffer from paranoia when i was younger, you know when you think cars might be following you, i still dont like it when you see someone sitting in a car then when you walk past they suddenly drive off, I finally got over it when i realised im pretty inconsequential in the scheme of things

i've tried sinicuichi. really, really tried it. left it on the porch in the sun for a day or three to steep into tea and then drank the worst cup of tea i've ever had. i'll leave the digestive effects to your imagination...
...in any case, here's what it did: it sounded like i was listening to things above a ring mod. it was definitely somewhere north of 2000hz... but in bits and spots. so, alright, someone took the output of a band-pass filter (bands largely north of 2000hz) and ran it through a ring mod. exactly like the intro to milkman except the wet/dry mix was set kindly enough to allow me to hear what was going on about as good as i could normally. no one was banging on the door.
not particularly noticible were the promised effects w/rt old memories. or much of anything else. i watched TV with ring mod for a couple hours, then there were the digestive effects i requested you pre-roll, then i decided i was not particularly interested in sinicuichi anymore. half suspect it was a different plant on that xochi chap.

it actually seems a bit easier to cope with than outright delusion. imagine you believe the dog's name is Steve. you go over to the dog and say "c'mere steve." the dog ignores you. everyone looks at you funny. awkward! someone finally asks: "why are you calling the dog steve?" you are confused. the dog's name is steve. it's always been steve... no, no, people tell you. the dog is named thaddeus.
this is more or less how i imagine a proper schizophrenic break to feel. one can learn to realize it's happened from the surrounding evidence (people confused, correcting you) but putting humpty-dumpty back together over and over again must be proper frustrating.
i feel this comes from the same thing as the voices: bits interrupt each other. you ask for regular unleaded and you get a banana... flap.

i was lying in bed last night, stewing on this thread. chewing gum. i thought: i'm already going a bit james joyce on xlt, why not write a post? i'll write it in my head until the gum is flavorless. crumple the gum up into a sphere of context. leave it on my desk. explode it into the relevant threads next morning. wonder how much i'll forget? answer: some of these words i wrote in bed last night, others i'm reconstructing today
my inability to shut up comes from chatting to myself constantly. constantly. it is more or less the cause of my insomnia. as soon as something like PROPHET VS is mentioned, my brain begins loading up zillions of obscure details about PROPHET VS and my brain begins to formulate sentences explaining how it was an analog/digital hybrid and the random patch generator (enter, 2) would generate patch names that, once you got an eye for 'em, would tell you what the patch would sound like before you even pressed a key. then you're must mashing random over and over until the letters tell you you're in the neighborhood of the patch you are imagining in your head and this cuts patch creation time down by like 10x and leads to some wicked accidents from near misses...
i thought: this is because i ramble these things to myself all day. it's force of habit. it's probably why i have such a deep memory: i habitually, compulsively re-enforce things by walking through them most any time they come up. this makes anything that comes up a bit more... punchy.
lying in the dark. trying to pick an adjective. i land on punchy.
more or less @ the precise moment i picked the word (perhaps it was even a moment before ;) i got a strange synaesthetic... thing: a pair of disembodied arms doing a punch-punch motion.
what. the. shit. was that? took me a minute to suss it: i'd been exercising for hours and hours, and it was effectively an afterimage of my own arms doing motions i'd done over and over and over earlier that day. like i said -- punchy
