Plans...to get surreal
I want to start taking all of the content (words/phrases) from my explorations and making visual (graphical/typographic) surrealistic imagery. I feel this will be a good way to explore what my mind is capable of, and see how far I can let my mind wander. Should be interesting.

Surrealism and such
What is Surrealsim?
Dictionary: Surrealism, n. Pure psychic automatism, by which one proposes to express, either verbally, in writing, or by any other manner, the real functioning of thought. Dictation of thought in the absence of all control exercised by reason, outside of all aesthetic and moral preoccupation.
Encyclopedia: Surrealism. Philosophy. Surrealism is based on the belief in the superior reality of certain forms of previously neglected associations, in the omnipotence of dream, in the disinterested play of thought. It tends to ruin once and for all other psychic mechanisms and to substitute itself for them in solving all the principal problems of life.
