“It’s the self-fulfilling prophecy of madness. If someone tells you you’re crazy enough times, eventually it becomes true. It’s that old psychiatrist’s joke: insanity’s all in your head.”
― Madeleine Roux, Asylum
Confronted with increasingly weird news, where I had the feeling I was one of the few remaining sane people on this earth (even though my head is in the clouds most of the time) I had for some time already posed the question if this globe is the designated Insane Asylum in the Galactic Empire.
Noodling around on Nightcafe with AI generated surreal ideas, I ran across a template my friend Roger Ledergerber created, called 'Bruno's World' - and he dealt with the same idea. You can check him out on Instagram HERE.
So I decided I first create some characters I can eventually put into a video, since at the same time I had already composed a blues song on Suno.com ( my profile on Suno )
Putting my 'Insane Asylum Band' together, start with
The Saxophonist
next one
The Pianoplayer
but he also plays the sax
the nurse is looking suspicious in his direction, which changed to horror once he started playing the piano and singing - I animated him (he appears in the video).Playing Guitar
And now
The Blues Singer with the Band
what I forgot to put into the video is
The Drummer
Check out the video
most of the characters make an appearance

MY INTRODUCTION - ABOUT MY WORK
should you not be on the blockchain, or have no upvote power, or this post is already older than 7 days, you can always just buy me a coffee.
Final Words of wisdom and a pet concern of mine, especially about art diplomas:
I had in years past come across quite a few 'fake diplomas' that pretend to be academic credentials. Next to 'Pay to Play Galleries' they are the scourge to be avoided. The summary of a paper about this spells it out
DEGREE MILLS - THE BILLION DOLLAR INDUSTRY
If you google the title you will find where this book is available, but also there are many videos on this subject.
