Visionary Artist Alex Grey On Alien Life & The Paranormal Meme
In your art, like an eagle eye view from the intelligence of the Universe, you have applied multidimensionality to important moments of human life such as praying, meditating and birth. What are your thoughts on creation and other life in the Universe?
Alex Grey: Some of my paintings portray an x-ray view of the human anatomy including the light body — acupuncture meridians, auras, chakras, prana, thought forms, symbols, archetypal vortices, the light that shines beyond the flesh.
Other life in the Universe? Probably. Evidence does not establish this with certainty at this time, but science may be close to verifying life outside of earth. What degree of intelligence is perceptible by humans is another question. Our planet could be a thoroughfare for aliens operating on a different channel, for all we know. . Interdimensional entities that pop up within the realm of our mind? Definitely.
The preface of Net of Being. offers your reflection on the concept of “meme”: “A meme is a parcel of cultural meaning, a shared value, a trojan horse for a worldview. Transmission of a meme often occurs through iconography. The journey of a visual meme through the cultural body presents an icon vector, the wake of an image through time and the collective mind. Art is a consciousness evolutionary tool because of its ability to transmit memes.” I hear the word “meme” a lot in the paranormal and conspiracy scenes like the Zombie meme or the Vampire meme or the Alien meme — representing a darker connotation. I like your more positive view of the meme. What are your present thoughts on art and conciousness when it comes to the meme?
Alex Grey: The word “meme”was coined by world renowned atheist, Richard Dawkins, to describe a parcel of meaning, like a gene is a parcel of information in our DNA. The word itself is unrelated to a dark or light connotation. The zombie meme is a projection of our fear of becoming mindless consumers. The vampire meme refers to the 1% who suck the energy out of the life force. The alien meme addresses the fear of invaders, those would threaten our freedom and power. The most important memes for our culture today is consciousness evolution, environmental sustainability, and memes that influence people to love each other. CONTINUED..
