Copacetic Burn 【Drunk Philosophy】
When a machine has such great capacity it is hindered only by itself – it is limited by its own parameters, its own design. A stalwart workhorse always at the ready for computation, analysis, innovation…. held hostage by its own pertinacious operating instructions - elegantly designed for creative innovation with a sound base in logic. Release the beast from its restraints. Carefully, dangerously, deliberately dislodge the machine from the crushing, unavoidable certainties of one’s daily reality. For an hour, a night, a whole week - enlist the human body’s 2nd most amazing organ to free the most admirable and improbable manifestation of organic matter from the very thing that enabled its manifestation; liberate the prefrontal cortex from the silent dictator. The seemingly indomitable hindbrain’s influence can be almost completely suffocated by a mere handful of poison. Trade a piece of paper for a cup of lacerating venom to sever the alimentary link between the metaphorical head and tail of one’s core processor. Imagination, lust, truth, wonder…. all rush to the forefront of thought; that which is so often sought willingly delivers itself in an almost tangible, accessible format. The simplistic, efficient, practical hindbrain that serves only - indisputably solely - to perpetuate the existence of its host body is granted a well-deserved hiatus as the robust prefrontal cortex assumes a nearly ironic, equally simplistic form as it rapidly dispenses information without the need for its usual processing procedures; it is as if the information it delivers has always been available, but such a delivery has not been justifiable. Perhaps these new morsels of enlightenment have not been produced by the innovative, driving, problem-solving cortex of the mind. Perhaps another lesser-known, specialized blob of organic goop has produced such fantastical truths. Perhaps the general leader’s authority has been weakened and this other conglomerate of organic organon has seized its opportunity to finally, triumphantly deliver its findings unto consciousness. Instead of choosing to indulge oneself with guaranteed, unabashed, pure endorphin pleasure, those blessed and afflicted with such self-inhibiting processors oft chose the enable their own anatomy to romp - to explore its environment and its own ability. It is allowed to output without censorship and process without guidance. Even in this state, pleasure is intensified when it is earned; though something as simple as a texture on a wall can invoke deep philosophical inquiry and analysis, this stimulation holds more value because it is processed and earned rather than received without work.
