Re: <nettime> Shifting the sensory balance: restoring sight at the age of 52 |
make me think about a so wellknown case of a man, a painter, who lost the vision of the colors, or a kind of, brief a very rare effect which was so studied cause it could explain a part of the process of the human vision itself, i read so much things about this case (and i am sure you too, espeacyally in psychiatrist rag) i wonder if it's not an urban legend, anyway i was flabbergasted by a thing i read just one time, flabbergasted i repeat cause first i know a french girl who is quite crazy about this word 'flabbergast' (tell her from my part to mirabelle@angelic.com and ask her what, according your opinion, would be this real effect it makes for her, and check with her if it makes the same effect for you, help her, help me cause i would leave my name in nettime archive as the world charlatan who would found the world logos therapy) and second cause none psychiatrist, if no mistaken, had commented on this so wonderfull effect of his handicap : the guy said he couldn't see anymore naked bodies, the skin look grey and odious, and now he has to switch off the light cause he seems to him he 'makes love with rats'. flabbergasted isn'it ? # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@bbs.thing.net and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@bbs.thing.net
