Doodles

My friends had a senior art show and while they did that, I sat in a corner w a kid and doodles so here are my doodles-

Their art show was Phosphene based off the word it is when you close ur eyes and see colors! A friend Macy did street sign art, my friend Tessa did all sorts of mediums and art of in the moment stuff, and a friend Riley did colorful self portraits! Hehe I love them!

「COPY」 WIP

Research about Phosphene, a really cool notion that perfectly is my feelings about the work Blaze and the embodiment of my personal experience (I like to rub my eyes to see such patterns since I was a child)

Came across this post on tumblr and reblogged it. 

    I scrolled through the comments and someone said that this “grid” is a phosphene, which is “a ring or spot of light produced by pressure on the eyeball or direct stimulation of the visual system other than by light”. I literally experienced this grid pattern when I injured my hand on a beach once. I was holding a very heavy rock that had a fossil in it. I was intending on cracking it open but never got the chance. The tide was coming in and my dad called out to me that I needed to get back to the carpark. The rocky beach was wet and I slipped sideways slowly, so I had to catch myself with the back of my left hand and the heavy rock pressed the top of my hand against another rock. What I think happened is that I pinched the nerve between my middle and ring finger knuckles. Was this ulnar nerve entrapment? I don’t know. I kept flexing my hand because it felt funny, almost sore but not. When my dad met me and we kept walking up the beach I felt lightheaded and he had to hold me up so I didn’t fall over. I felt nauseous and my vision went weird. Things sort of went totally white and then I saw row and rows of orange dots - a grid. 

    I looked it up tonight and found this. 

   The cortex examples in D and E are roughly what I saw, like a dot grid notebook. Not sure how this chart can help me understand what I saw, but I suppose it tells me that my cortex was activated or disrupted when the nerve in my hand was impacted. If you’re reading this and have any additional information, can make corrections, and/or can help me understand what happened to me, please reblog or comment on this post.
