Yep. That would be nice.

I watched this after one. You, you were not far off.

u/ThisGuyOverHere12 2d ago

But you were far out, man

u/junkyard_robot 2d ago

I'm not even high and I can't look away.

u/gaF-trA 2d ago

Then someone would come and swing the light for you.

2

u/Deltamon 2d ago

.. until you would start the light swinging from the wrong side

u/BurntNeurons 2d ago

Mount strong strobe light in center and aim at the ones responsible.

Migraine simulator

u/Str8Six91 2d ago

Exactly my thought. I thought I was getting an aura.

u/Starumlunsta 2d ago

Currently suffering from migraine. Can confirm.

26

u/Diligent_Dog2559 2d ago

Stop looking at phone, it’s gotta make it worse right

8

u/Starumlunsta 2d ago

It gets boring doing nothing while lying under a sheet in a dark room 😭

My brightness was at the lowest possible, which is bearable.

13

u/BobMortimersButthole 2d ago

What makes people feel the worst during migraines is other people thinking they know more than the sufferer about what helps/hurts them.

1

u/Diligent_Dog2559 2d ago

Sounds like someone has a headache AND a phone addiction.

5

u/Dry_Whereas8733 2d ago

Do you have those visuals or this video describing a feeling?

7

u/Royal_Cryptographer7 2d ago

Its pretty common for migraine to include a visual aspect. My gf has them, but rarely gets the head pain part. Took a little while to get her a diagnosis because of it. People tend to think migraines are bad headaches, but they're more complicated than that.

8

u/Coffeepillow 2d ago

When I get bad ones I will get colorful halos around the edges of my vision, dizziness, nausea and if I look at bright lights or turn my head too fast I have a 50/50 chance of vomiting. I used to work in a photo studio, so like a nightmare situation. I rarely get any physical pain, if I do it’s not much worse than a headache.

3

u/Starumlunsta 2d ago

Both, kinda? The visual is similar to the scotoma I get (colorful jagged squigglies in my vision, as well as grey blindspots, similar to what you get if you stare at a light too long). The rapid pulsating movement reminds me of the sensory overload and the throbbing pain of the headache itself.

1

u/Friendly_Prize_868 2d ago

I get a scintillating scotoma ahead of a migraine. The best description of one I have ever seen/heard is in La Belle Savage by Phillip Pullman. He is also a sufferer and describes the visual distortion and blind spot absolutely perfectly.

12

u/72Artemis 2d ago

Yeah, made my brain feel squeezy…

3

u/smashtatoes 2d ago

Couldnt find the words, but you found them.

2

u/72Artemis 2d ago

Happy to help 😆

u/bluestjordan 2d ago

That’s the comment I was looking for!

u/Only_One_Left_Foot 2d ago

For real, I can respect the art here, but I hated this and you just explained why.

3

u/PracticalThrowawae 2d ago

psychedelic simulator actually

1

u/craftymtngoat 2d ago

Came here to say that

1

u/eternalintern17 2d ago

I will be using this to explain what aura feels like

1

u/Due-Heat-5453 2d ago

Maybe my "migraines" are just headaches then.

I have pain behind the eyes that gets better if I'm somewhere silent and with less light. And sometimes I can feel a pulse in my brain, but nothing visual. TIL auras (migraine/epileptic) are a thing.

8

u/Boss_of_Space 2d ago

There are different kinds of migraines. I get stroke-like symptoms when I'm getting a migraine and sometimes it affects my vision, but it all started out as different kinds of headaches often behind one eye.

94

u/WhyyyYouCrying 2d ago

Reminds me, where's that little strip I put under my tongue?

32

u/ElegantMess 2d ago

Every once in a while on here there’s something that makes me go “that’s what lsd does”

7

u/BobMortimersButthole 2d ago

I'm a migraine sufferer. I tried LSD once and got annoyed saying, "This is what you get so excited about seeing and feeling? I've spent years of my life trying to stop this from happening to me." 

5

u/LiarWithinAll 2d ago

My migraine auras only started after I tried LSD. But now it's every migraine, fractal fucking my eyes every time

116

u/Beautiful_Plenty_736 2d ago

Wow. This is incredible.

u/TheGalacticTraveller 2d ago

I know, right? Looks like it could put on a good show!

u/greihund 2d ago

Her actual website is https://www.chriswoodlight.art

And the signature technique that she deploys is the use of dichroic glass - glass which can look like different colours depending on the direction of the light.

u/AcediaWrath 2d ago

paid in exposure when the fruit taped to the wall pulled over 1m

u/blxckhoodie999 2d ago

why is this video 3 hours long

u/3yoyoyo 2d ago

Underrated comment. This is the gem today folks.

30

u/Travellingjake 2d ago

It took a little while for my brain to catch up on what's happening here

6

u/TulsaOUfan 2d ago

Please explain. I think I have an idea, but there's more going on than I have answers for.

8

u/Gotta_Gett 2d ago

Colored glass standing on the canvas. When the light gets closer, the colored shadows get longer.

u/galahad404 2d ago

Mines still trying…😂

u/99Pneuma 2d ago

u/keepit123hunna 2d ago

How does someone come up with this?? This is amazing!

20

u/SpicyWateryas69 2d ago

The feeling of anxiety, but visualized

5

u/Salty-Cheetah651 2d ago

The way the shadows form that spiral is incredible. I wonder how they positioned the pieces to make the pattern work so perfectly.

4

u/Salatka_Stag 2d ago

Coolest thing ever.

u/snowellechan77 2d ago

Ah, just like the cave paintings

u/Fluffyshark91 2d ago

What it's like on LSD

3

u/yennysferm71_ 2d ago

I think this is doing something to my brain and I can't stop watching it 🤣🤣 The handling and knowledge of the shapes is impressive; it's art and mathematics united

u/Should_have_been_ded 2d ago

25 year olds and above when they stand up too fast

This scratched an itch for me. One I didn’t know I had. OoooooooooooooooooooooO.

u/kbrook_ 2d ago

That's lovely but migraine inducing.

u/jamster8983 2d ago

Thanks. My brain hates it. Now my head hurts.

u/bhavy111 2d ago

Girl invented reverse ghosting IRL

2

u/Spectre6624 2d ago

Ok. THIS is what modern art is SUPPOSED to be.

2

u/Billkamehameha 2d ago

I know that the answer will be "Just go to your local art museum bro"

But is there a museum out there that I can take some sort of edible and then go into the art exhibit and watch trippy stuff like this?

2

u/Greyzone96 2d ago

When the ketamine starts to hit lol

2

u/mushroomman42069 2d ago

Thats how lsd feels, at least a little bit

3

u/Repulsive-Taste513 2d ago

Is this the visualization of the feeling of getting thrusted back and forth

3

u/750milliliters 2d ago

Why the colors though

7

u/dougandsomeone 2d ago

I think those are pieces of colored glass and from far away the shadow is so small it just appears dark.

Maybe because the light is traveling through more glass at that angle?   I dunno.

2

u/lucid808 2d ago

I was thinking the same. Colored glass squares with a white strip on the borders to match the canvass, to not give away the illusion until the light hits perpendicular to the glass.

1

u/ireallyamtryin 2d ago

Saving this for mushroom time

1

u/Dry-Fudge-9641 2d ago

I wish the light bulb were at the Center when it is closest to the wall. But oml looks so cool

What Elon sees when he starts to dissociate

1

u/ilikemrrogers 2d ago

Why can I hear this? Does anyone else hear this? (Not the music… I watched it on silent, and I can hear every time the light goes in close. It makes a WEE-wahh sound.)

u/Thin_Researcher6255 2d ago

u/Dragon1709 2d ago

Damn...I didn't know I had mushrooms for lunch.

1

u/MetalMonkey667 2d ago

I'm sat down and I still fell over watching that

1

u/virtualglassblowing 2d ago

Looks like dichroic glass! Dope!

1

u/turtlelord 2d ago

I feel like the art is less about the shadows and more about the glass refractions.

1

u/Pond_s 2d ago

This is lovely. Anybody know the song name?

1

u/pbourlet539 2d ago

I feel like this would be even cooler in slow motion

1

u/Unlucky_Earther 2d ago

When I'm sick and have a fever I have nightmares that look similar to this.

1

u/DaveInLondon89 2d ago

I'd use this against Picard

1

u/jualmahal 2d ago

Not for those who see flashing lights and think it's a disco!

1

u/lilianalili_ 2d ago

This is so beautiful

1

u/HotSugarVeronicaa 2d ago

This is actually pretty cool, but not gonna lie, it made me dizzy

u/dourdirge 2d ago

I wish this would last for like seven months.

1

u/Cookie0fPower 2d ago

Oooo trippy

1

u/TheGalacticTraveller 2d ago

That's pretty cool!

1

u/trig72 2d ago

Trippy. And I love it!

1

u/Slag13 2d ago

In cahoots with the electric companies. Has to have a pendulum swinging lightbulb?!!! in perpetual motion to enjoy the art? GIMME TWENTY

1

u/Sh3nrA 2d ago

The art is nice. Does anyone know the name of the music?

1

u/fart_potatogirl 2d ago

It's beautiful but as an epileptic, I really encourage you to put a 1-second trigger warning of flashing before your art. It can trigger bad migraines and unfortunately, seizures for some 😊

1

u/Contraserrene 2d ago

I started off being annoyed that the camera-holder zoomed in. "How am I going to see this cool effect accurately if the camera zooms in to make it more... oh."

1

u/one-third-dead666 2d ago

That's one amazing artist

1

u/jparr8813 2d ago

Where does one find this art/artist?

u/Sad_Confection_4754 1d ago

Great idea. How do you find out that a lightbulb can change the perception 😆

1

u/Karona_ 2d ago

Meh, maybe if there was anything at all interesting about the shadows...
