With this year’s sci-fi movies harking back to the surrealist paranoia of the early 2000s, Payton McCarty-Simas curates twenty of the trippiest titles from the aughts to take a trip down memory lane. Read the full story on Journal:

🎶🎸 I Am the Walrus” was John Lennon’s surrealist masterpiece from 1967. Inspired by a police siren, Lewis Carroll and a joke about students analyzing lyrics, Lennon filled it with nonsense, Shakespeare and psychedelic imagery. It was pure psychedelic chaos.

This Halloween, I was inspired by the surrealist, Jean Cocteau, who created and inspired dreamlike imagery beyond logic. I am accompanied by a donkey. Representing the heavy weight of societal expectations And bourgeois education dragging down the individual subconscious. I wish I had met Cocteau. “Only mystery keeps us alive. Only mystery” Federico Garcia Lorca. A great novelist who was assassinated before you could finish his play “ La Bola Negra” Go and see the film, La Bola Negra. 🌑 A transformational experience. Brava Los Javis! So Inspiring.
