The Mind at the End of its Tether

"A long time ago, a great shaman died. His spirit helpers were so angry about losing their chief that they began to cut a huge piece of the sky. The ripped sky fell on top of the earth, pushing the forest and the mountains down to the underworld... Now in the place where the rivers are born, the fallen sky was sitting at the foot of a cacao tree, forming the mountains where the Yanomami live today." A Yanomami Creation Myth (Peter Gorman, 1991). The scene in this NFT was originally created as a set of AI-generated images depicting a myth of creation according to the Yanomami indigenous people of South America. It contains surreal elements designed to mimic the motifs elicited by medicinal plants used by the Yanomami. The original post can be found here: https://peakd.com/hive-158694/@litguru/awhglebw.
