Artist's Comments

Here I am re-writing the Artist's Comments.

Why? Because the last one lacked luster. Or lust. Maybe both.

Anyway, here is a piece of Chaos Magick I made. What I essentially did is made all the symbols myself from scratch. Some of them went through a designing process, like the eye and swirls right on the top. Some of them I improvised like the branch with 18 leaves and that angular something to the left.

And some were just crazy like the spiral on the top left. I started writing 9 and each addition of it above that and by pure random chance I came up with 333 at the end. And that additions box? It was pure chance that it ended on a number divisible by 9. Which I should note, I have a bit of superstitious love of the number 9 because all of its multiples add back into it. 18 1+8=9. 27 2+7=9. 297 2+9+7=18 1+8=9. It's just an f-ing cool number.

In the end I've read up on Chaos Magick some more and not only does it seem like a more appropriate choice for my beliefs, I also get the truth that this image makes no sense at all. I was kind-of hoping it was some kind of mystically formed map to my mind through the random chance and whimsical choice that went into it. In truth it's probably something like that, but it's not quite something I can just pick apart like I wanted to.

Not like I could even if I tried.

Anyway. Yeah. I'm looking deeper into Chaos Magick. In that I'm actually reading articles over it.

When I made this I only knew its name and how the symbols work.

But continuing on, I'm the perfect candidate for a Chaos Magician. I'm agnostic and don't believe in anything I can't prove or feel is real. Chaos Magick is an individuals personal amalgamation of all that said individual feels works. At least I think. It's a bit confusing. So essentially I'm forming my own little sect under a broad spectrum that purports forming your own conclusions with maybe a few common factors when working in a group.

So.. I think I somewhat have it now.. yeah.

I'm gonna go read some more.

You sound like a complete nut. What are you on and can I have any?
:iconknightrebound:
There're mice in my skull. Scratching around.

There's this guy... sells "polaroid spinal cavaties" on the street. He can do the job for you.

Afterwards you'll sound like anything that's come from:

I would link you directly to the page on the site, but it's gone.

They still have the original Word Salads up, but the page they have them on are no longer linked to on the site.

seems you got to try sigil magic art now :-)

Its realy a good representation of a chaos magicans thought snapshot :-)
:iconknightrebound:
Yeah. This one I Found most interesting.

Though I have yet to even attempt to figure out what in the world everything stands for.

The first step, I suppose, would be to look up what the Chaos-Sphere's arrows each stand for again and try and interpret each one.

So many eyes and spirals. The 333 number from multiples of 9 was an especially interesting result.

I think I'm gonna go do that now. Thanks for the comments and the fav.

Ah. The most interesting part of it, which I forgot to mention, was that every time I tried to draw an arrow pointing downwards.. I just couldn't do it. I don't know why. So I put to X-s since that seemed right if I couldn't make a downwards arrow... I need to look up what a downwards arrow means in the Chaos-Sphere. Chaos-Star.. whatever name I should use for it.

:iconblacktoweroftime:
the meaning of things isn't strong regulated in chaos magik. anything possible goes. Most important is how it is represented in you personal reality and how you believe it would interact with other people and things own realities.
:iconknightrebound:
That sounds insane.

I made it as a representation of me. As far as what I made it for can be called.

I started drawing and made what symbols and items seemed natural.

Does that mean it has no meaning, or that I can name its meaning? Or something else I'm remaining ignorant of?

I think the best chose would be

FNORD

:iconszoept:
Reality is completely what you make of it. The quantum soup behind you does not exist until your focus forces it to take on the forms that you have been enscribed upon to believe. Belief and personality/identity are functions of adaptions to hostile environments. Be ware giving them more power than they deserve. Both belief and personality are merely tools... Means to ends... So the only question you really need to answer is: What is it that you want?
