"Sane Asylum" Opening Near You
[Photo by Rich Hennessee] Even in these surreal times, some people remain trapped in the narrow land that is reality, most by no fault of their own. It is unfortunate that today’s governments lack the fertilizer necessary to keep their subjects colorful.
The “Sane Asylum”, a grassroots institution promoting divergent minds and lives, hopes to compensate for what our government fails to provide. Having recently received $1,000,000 in series-A funding from Adventure Capital, the Sane Asylum provides a platform from which those unnaturally stuck in or addicted to reality can launch themselves into alternate paths of all kinds. It is a place where uniforms and suits, grumps and lumps, and stagnant minds can go to be warped and weirdened.
At the Sane Asylum, there are fairies, there are spirits. There’s paganism, mirror rooms, clown ensembles. There is atonal, discordant music at all hours, and a potent mix of cabin isolation, sleep deprivation, and ceremony to enliven the third eye’s senses. Artificial synchronicities and unlikely events inspire residents of the asylum to pursue strings of thoughts and actions that the mono-world would never bake.
Each individual receives unique treatment and is sent in a unique direction in the multiverse. By the time they return to “society”, they are hopefully free-spirited and no longer excessively sane as they might have been before.
Written on a sculpture of a dead fish smoking a cigarette outside the Sane Assylum’s front entryway are the following motivating words:
In a world of no bounds No directions A million clowns Complexions A billion rabbits and a trillion microcosms Full of abundance in unexplainable forms
For you and your brain We wish anything but tame Anything but lame And anything but Sane
Bradbury said, "Every book ‘ought to smell" and the only thing worse than hell is plain
