Closing up the Thoughtform Entity Experiment?
17 years ago
General
I’m going to need some opinions on this. Well, I started this FA account to explore different ideals as well as showing off my not-so-public art. The “experiment” was one of those ideals that instead of just falling flat after the first couple of posts, it took off and led me on a different yet better path. But as this furry fandom and this web sight gets more popular and more “regular” people are getting into it, so it may soon become an unsafe or unwelcome environment for me to express such ideals. (In other words, go back in the closet to flee the ignorant and prejudice masses as they move in the neighborhood.) Another reason for closing is that I believe that this experiment has come full circle. I believe that the original questions of this experiment has been answered and that the events revolving around the experiment has become an evolving long path instead of an experience anyone can just jump in and be a part off.
In the long run I do like this sight to be part of my artistic outlet and if time and circumstances allow me, to continue to create stimulating art. But the question I am pondering on: should I leave the experiment journals up or should I remove them to let this sight be just about art and not to mix it up with explorations to gain different experiences, like through spiritualism, lucid dreaming, ex? Of course, I’ll repost the pics as just pics. All feedback is welcome.

I for one really like your art. Especially Krotsgier related works
Back on topic: Personally, I think this experiment of yours is a breath of fresh air in this place. I get rather tired of the people who are only here for the pr0nz.
i havent told anyone that im a fur but i dont care to much if they find out but thats all still up to you to decide
It is inspiring and motivating for myself as well, to eventually create my own servitor for which I have had a long-lasting urge to do. It's been over 2 years (has it really?) since I started trailing after your works and unique experiments. In the later submissions of yours, especially when the K & O ones were released, I somehow found myself feeling more disinterested and somehow less supportive. Things didn't "feel" like how you had portrayed your intentions.
As for the present, I would be crushed if you up and left! I have many questions unasked and would love to learn more about how you go about preparing for lucid dreaming, if at all and any tips you would be willing to offer. ^___^

Consider moving the experiment to a website devoted to such things, and leave the art, which is amazing and wonderful, here on the art site.
Just my 2¢.
Face whatever they say. If it is belittling in a mindless, pointless way, tell them so and *only* if they decide to become constant harassments should you block them. If, on the other hand, they present thoughtful, intelligent arguments that you can address, then do so. In talking with these people, you can find out just how they see things, and perhaps gain even more insight into this whole experiment.
If you refuse to face the resistance that you know is out there in the world, and instead hide what you believe to be true... is it really truth, or just a delusion?
Know that you have many people who are genuinely interested in these experiments you've been going through, and in the artwork you've posted. We'd love to see more of you, and are curious as to how things will turn out. Of course, if you're not quite ready to deal with those of open mouths and closed minds, there really isn't anything wrong with that. It comes down to what you're comfortable with.
I'd like to see them up. It's the first encounter I've had with anything like this, and it has my curiosity. If it wasn't up, I still wouldn't know. Hopefully a few more people will be in the same boat, read over your info, and start to be curious as well.
if you're saying that you are getting embarassed of the work you do, dont be embarrassed. i mean, does it make you weird? lol, you're talkin to a buncha people who look at animals naked XD. we're the ones that are weird.
if you're saying that you dont want that piece of work to continue, just stop it then. to be honest, i never liked the thought form experiment 'season'.
your other work, keep it up man. beautiful.
if you're saying its unsafe to express your opinion, well everyone has one. and you have just as much right to express it as them or I.
