sorry my intention isn't to be rude or critical I just want to say why ?? it's like processing an image through photoshop with one of the stock effects.. gaussian blur, sepia, emboss... this one might as well be dubbed mammalian overload.

I should explain. I ran these images through Google's "Deep Dream" software-- it uses a neural network to find patterns in images, which it then replicates and enhances. Some of these images began as simple static, and the computer pulls birds and weird animals out of it. The result is very psychedelic and I find it fascinating.

Here's a link that relates neural networks to the psychedelic experience:
