I saw this on another forum and thought it was cool, an artist was given a bunch of art materials, LSD and was let loose. Apparently it was some sort of government test. Acid trip 6 and 7 are the best.

I thought these were pretty funny: “Upon completing the drawing the patient starts laughing, then becomes startled by something on the floor.”

"Patient retreated to the bunk, spending approximately 2 hours lying, waving his hands in the air. "

The point of the test being …?
