Drawing Dreams Generator It belongs to a series of unique experimental drawings with high voltages. Although its motive is abstract, there is probably a human brain under tension, which is hard to generate good dreams instead of nightmares. Or is it a dreaming flower, an exploding fungus? We all have our dreams. Let's try through them, somewhere on the border of the gray cortex and wisdom of nature, to imagine alternative reality.

Krištof Kintera for 100pcs

These drawings are created by a very specific technique. I call it a jet drawing or a high voltage drawing. The machine is written in Cyrillic Lichtenberg. Lichtenberg was a Baroque German scientist and thinker. He was the first to display these small lightning, which was actually the very first display of electric current or voltage. That's why this is called Lichtenberg's patterns. But the roots of trees and plants also look like form. Everything actually leads to some similar morphology, and it is a bewitching, fascinating.

I feel that the whole world is electric. And our brains are also electric. It is one big unexplored universe, we do not know how it works. It is a symbol of our knowledge and ignorance. That's why I really enjoy the brain. The fact that it is accompanied by the text is very emblematic. It always lies here for a while before it works, what to write there and send it a little in a particular direction - to those dreams, because we all have some, whether at night or day.
