Insert open mind joke into this hole in my head. Please.
Tonight I was talking to
nickjb about my problems finding non-insane commentary on neurofeedback, etc. and we got onto the topic of failed therapies. One of these is trepanation, otherwise known as making a hole in your skull. Ancient people did this, and sometimes survived it. Sometimes they probably even felt better.
Nick explained that there was a sixties thing where people started saying trepanation was hip and happening and it was touted for a while, and I didn't really believe him. Color me wrong. Color me also slightly nauseous (green).
Ladies and gentlemen, I present the International Trepanation Advocacy Group. Don't skip intro. The spacy Heavens Gate-quality film is worth a few minutes. One side effecdt of trepanation has already been identified: smooth jazz and trippy 3D rendered animation.
I know I'm mining a rich vein when their short film credits the Mutter Museum and the State Department of Health of Nuevo Leon, Mexico.
"Some of us are willing to present ourselves publicly so that the old stigma associated with making a hole in the skull will be worn down over time."
