Re:Hypnosis with Aphantasia on Wednesday January 21, 2026 @12:05PM (#46708373)
I will say it was a mind blowing experience to learn after decades of buddhist practice other people were LITERALLY seeing things (and in some cases trying not to). I never found it detracted from my experience as learning to NOT get distracted by that stuff is half the battle for a lot of people. So it can be a warp whistle in some ways. It is also why I am probably more interested in playing/listening to heavy doom music as it is hypnotic in its monotony. I reckon it is why I am fixated on genera lisp, smalltalk, self esque environments as they are more tangible for creating scenes on the screen that match how I am thinking about code (inside out and all that).

Of all the various branches of the raskin alterniverse we could have had I think about this document a lot: https://web.stanford.edu/dept/SUL/sites/mac/primary/docs/bom...

Imagine!

It’s comforting to remember that a lot of the research from st/self eg hotspot went into the jvm. So whenever I am writing clojure I feel I am still, in a way, hanging out with all of my (lang) friends.

I have continued to research this - should be publishing a zine about it soon!
