The Origin of Art in Entoptic Phenomena
Relatively recent research suggests
cave
art
is neither simply
'art for art's sake'
nor
'hunting magic'
, rather a representation of
entoptic
phenomena
associated with hallucinations during
altered
or
trance
states of consciousness
. These images are common to
modern
and prehistoric humans
all
over
the
world
, and can be readily
found in contemporary art
. (see also
some
further
reading
, cool
entoptic Kutie Catcher
,
AskMe
)
