I have found the inspiration behind inspiration

I am extensively researching and experimenting with a brain stimulant to understand what conditions are necessary for them to appear and enhance the mind beyond the average human capacity. This brain stimulant can provide a wonderful opportunity for the brain to conceptualise. They are like a trigger that allows the brain to work beyond convention by revealing hidden alternatives that alter our usual perception. I am particularly interested in understanding the neuronal association of visual and other types of sensory stimulants, that is, how they can be explained in terms of the electrophysiology and microanatomy of the stimulant against retinal and cortical networks that mediate information to the mind. My studies have been focused on:

  • Size of stimulant
  • Type of stimulant (ranging from type A, C, BE and mutated versions of it)
  • Appearance of stimulant
  • Relevance to creative solutions

I am also interested in the reactionary state of the human mind during exposure to these stimulants. In my experiments, I have used uninitiated individuals who were keen to rediscover some form inspiration for their gradually dying brain. I have conducted my research in my laboratory, funded partially by The Birlaj Institute of Science and Technology. I officially stopped my affiliation with the Dickson and Ruddock Laboratories at the California Institute of Technocraft in 1988 to pursue my own independent research, aided by my loyal assistant Waiyan and the Birlaj Institute, of course.

Thinking Process – conceptualising beyond the ordinary

I was having lunch with one of the Art School professors, Dr. Ortiz, when he told me about his dilemma with his students. Dr. Ortiz was shocked with the significant amount of students that were unable to complete his final assignment. When I asked him why, he said that the common excuse from every student was “I can’t think, I don’t feel inspired”.

How can someone not think? Is it a matter of discipline? Laziness? Is there truth in the “I don’t feel inspired” excuse? Inspiration comes from everywhere and anywhere. Our environment is filled with inspiration! But maybe the despair in the current world has blanketed inspiration.
This led to my research on lateral thinking. The use of lateral thinking consists in the awareness of the patterning nature of mind. One must know how to appreciate the difference between the rules of vertical thinking and the rules of lateral thinking, the application of special settings or techniques. What if someone can’t appreciate the difference? Is there a stimulant that can inspire a person to think beyond convention?

My finding of a common symbol in the Pyramids of Giza, The Great Wall of China, Taj Mahal and Acropolis revealed something unique. It was a symbol that came in the form of the alphabet ©. When looked at from a certain angle, this alphabet stimulated neurons in the brain to automatically think in a lateral manner.

The purpose of © is to stimulate a person’s creative thinking process. The mind is not good at restructuring ideas to bring them up to date and allow full use of available information. Traditional thinking habits are very effective at developing ideas but human beings find it hard to restructure them. The symbol © stimulates neurons to introduce the discontinuity that is necessary for restructuring ideas. This in turn provokes new alternatives in the mind.

The © is a neutral symbol and is not associated with any dogma, belief or even acceptance of a theory. If you don’t know of its use, you will ignore it…
