Maybe I could look for VINTAGE 70s art. Then again I wouldn’t know. I showed my grandpa and he says it’s pretty accurate but it’s a more modern take on the art style.
I could go for distortion, bright colors, suggest something is eerie/unsettling. I’ve done research on this particular drug it’s very effed up what you see. Depending on your mood or if you’re feeling it can really affect your trip. It can last six to twelve hours until the acid leaves your system.
That being said, Charles as he starts the acid trip, doesn’t know beforehand any of it was going to happen. He is very confused at first but then he is scared and he thinks he’s losing his mind and stuff. That would affect his hallucinations to be perceived as scary or anxiety inducing in his circumstance. However LSD is unpredictable, dangerous and you have no idea what could happen to you. Even if you know you are going on a trip, even if you think you can handle it, you never know what the drug can trigger in you or do to your brain. In other words, from reading and watching from other people’s accounts of being addicts or abusers of LSD/or other hallucinogens, they say it’s not all fun or exciting as people make it out to be. So I’m going for an unglamorous approach whilst invoking bright colors with dark backgrounds. As well as a bunch of effed up stuff like imaginary creatures or something in the walls he’s seeing.
