through the eyes of....?

[slipknotpsycho]

imagine you could leave your body and go into one person's mind and see everything they see, but you are stuck there the rest their life, you cannot feel anything they feel, all you can do is watch, like a life-long movie.....


who would you chose, and why?

[Acouwaila]

wasnt there a movie like this?

i would most likely choose a homeless person....would be interesting to see how they get through life....

[d00d989]

i'd pick someone really high up in the government......itd be sweet to know all the little scandals and secrets that are kept from the public

[NightProwler]

geronimo. or a zulu.

[the yeag]

so your life would be over..you can just watch someone ele;s through thier eyes..is that correct if so...i would rather be dead..that would suck

[lagstronaut]

yeah..you can see but you can't decide? and you can't even feel what they are feeling? weak

[az666]

Thats a good question!
Maybe Marilyn Manson (although would have prefered a few years ago)
hmmm cant think at the moment

[MastaChronic]

would we be intoxicated if they got drunk/high or w/e? if so, id wanna be in bob marleys head

[notech]

I think i would rather be buried alive than go through a

nasty experience like that. . . . ;)

Because you would be better off dead,, imho instead of having to suffer like that. . . .

Peace. . . . :thumbsup:

I enjoy these philosophical kicks you sometimes get on, Slipknot. Enjoy pondering the questions that result.

Let me ask you this. If we're stuck in someone else's mind seeing what they see but not feeling any of their emotions, can we still feel our own emotions as our former selves, or is that ability gone, too? I ask because the prospect of not having any emotional capacity is mighty bleak.

That being said, if all I had was the ability to look out and see what someone else sees, then I'm thinking I might have to go inhabit Angelina Jolie's mind. She gets to see Brad Pitt in all his glory, and when she's not enjoying the sight of Brad, she has nice babies/children to play with and all sorts of interesting humanitarian destinations to travel to in the world.

[slipknotpsycho]

well that's the purpose of this excersize <.< you aren't able to feel or really experience anything other then visually.... and death isn't an option, whose life would you rather be stuck watching?

edit : nonono you can still feel emotion of yourself, you just can't feel what they experience....

[birdgirl73]

OK, well, then that settles it. If I can still feel my own emotions but can visually experience someone else's life, then yes, I'll inhabit Angelina Jolie's mind and feast my eyes on Brad Pitt. I personally would still derive a good deal of pleasure from that, even second-hand. Also, if she breaks up with him down the road, she'll almost certainly take up with someone else who's interesting. Not sure I'd ever get used to the papparazzi, but since I wouldn't be feeling her emotions of frustration, I could deal with that.

hahahahaha :D

Did someone get a little too baked and watch Being John Malkovich?

I learned my lesson from that movie for sure, not to mention just common sense... Not for me man, I prefer interaction with the world.

[AlwaysBlazed]

Someone who is always high.

lol is that the movie they're talking about this idea being from? well i know yal probably aren't going to believe this (seems that movie must be similar to my idea) but i've never seen that movie, much less get the idea from there....

[halosin8r]

lol, maybe if I can live a whole other persons life in one night, and then BAM back to the real world of my life.
get many points of views that way, yes?
tho if I was to go deep into it, I guess I wouldnt do it to much, I'd might become some severe mental schizoid at the Happy House

[Polymirize]

Jon Cussack finds a hole in his office wall that when he crawls through it takes him into the mind of John Malkovich, and he sees through his eyes for a period of time until he gets spit out somewhere on the New Jersey turnpike.

Its weird.

But you should totally check it out... :thumbsup:

[halosin8r]

oh, forgot a name, lol.

Terence McKenna was pretty cool in my book.

[slipknotpsycho]

well now i gotta check it out, cuz this idea has always fascinated me (watching someone else live their life)

[fikusroot]

I would want to be someone eccentric. I mean more eccentric than I.

[MastaChronic]

if you were in their head and you started talking, would they be able to hear it? maybe this is why schizos have voices in their head? and what if there was more than one person in that persons head? would they see eachother and be able to converse together, or would they get rolled up into one psychological/emotional ball and become one entity?

LOL. good one.
but id like to be in the heads of all the people i know just to see how they thought. human mind is so complex and fun to figure out!

To have "nothing" is impossible, making "everything" possible. This is why we exist.

what im saying is I believe everything will happen, infinite is NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOW-NOw-NOw-NOw-NOw-Now-Now-Now-now-now...
