Tim you legend! Dreaming and drawing is 100% my jam- like yourself I had some very striking dream experiences as a child which I could not ignore and once I learned about the phenomenon of lucid dreaming (seen that film Waking Life?) I dedicated a large chunk of my 20's to pursuing them. I go through phases of journaling and over the years filled many and have dozens of memorable lucid dream experiences (and many many more banal or wasteful ones!)- I could happily talk on this subject for hours. Since I fell off with it I still find I'll spontaneously have a lucid dream a couple of times a month, though remembering them clearly is often a different matter. One habit I keep up though is I have a chime that goes off on my phone on the hour and I do a quick 'reality check' (bung up my nostrils and try to breath through my nose), the idea being that as the chime goes off through the night I'll occasionally attempt it in my dream and wha-la. Gotta say the surprising autonomy of dream characters and sense of an intelligence 'behind the curtain' so to speak has to be one of the most intriguing aspects imo. A weird one for sure 🌐♦🔸!

2:19 I've seen something very similar in a dream - almost identical. It was on some kind of metal surface in outer space with a purple gas giant overhead. These tall beaked wraith-like things were having what seemed to be some kind of convention. Far more numerous were much shorter beings waddling around with similar cloaks and masks. It felt different than most dreams I have in that I was aware that I was dreaming, but I felt at the time that I was seeing something that was really happening. Very odd.

I'm attempting to learn painting. I've been trying to start an anatomically correct heart for days. I walk out for a cigarette. I walk back in to a commercial on tv with the image of an anatomically correct heart. I note it. I come in, look at the canvas,sigh, and pick up the tablet to find this.

Interesting, thank you for sharing

Subbed at the “hi there” because what a lovely drawing!

Sorry to the Americans" me a south African Ah yes I understand I understand 😂❤

I went through a phase of life where I experienced many wonderful and fascinating synchronicities and coincidences. Probably from 1993 - 2003. Some you just wouldn't believe.

Every time, all day. Since 16. I love it. Well, at the begging was very, very strange. I was very scary, in denial. But now is very normal. Well, now I want to experiment with things! Thnk U For the video. Cheers.

Paying attention. When you are paying attention you cannot not get a message.

Yes i have many all the time. If you open your heart to the idea that the universe is communicating with you, the synchronicities will come BANGING at your door. Try it. ❤

I am a poet. One of my favorite literary figures is Neal Cassady, the muse of the beat generation. One afternoon this past summer I was walking along the railroad tracks in my hometown thinking about his untimely death from exposure and/or organ failure on the tracks of Mexico, what must have been a miserable way to go, plus the looming dreadful potential to be run over by a train, though this didn’t happen and his body was found the next morning. With these thoughts in mind I attempted to construct an image of how his death could’ve been more dignified and peaceful, immediately summoning the line “fawn sleeping/forever/in the warm tracks…Neal I wish your death/had been as sweet as that.” Not 100 yards later as i rounded a bend, I saw, in the southbound track, a seemingly uninjured fawn curled up…dead.

Fascinating story. I draw and paint portraits of dead celebrities. In one case, I drew an actor and the next day I found his autograph at an antique store. Another time I painted a singer from the 1930s, and the next day an album of her old recordings turned up at Goodwill. The most startling one was I was working on a pencil portrait of an actress while I was listening to some rock music on UA-cam. As I was finishing up, the channel automatically switched to music from the 1940s and the song she loved and was identified with popped up by surprise. Don't discount these experiences - there is something to them!

I've been writing a comic for the past few months about coincidences, and the whole time i've been having synchronicities directly connected to things I'd just drawn. I'm almost finished so I'm kind of anticipating something weird to happen once it's all finished

Last year I watched twin peaks for the first time, my brother comes down to my dad’s place for a long weekend and decides to do an oil change on his car, I’m going out throughout the day chatting to him in between eps and finish the episode about the portal to the other world being a puddle of burnt diesel. I walk outside to tell him see my brother(never watched the show). Saying to my dad it smells burnt and putting the oil dish into our garden bed.. I flipped lmao

Our connection to the depths of life. Beautiful story thank you for sharing.

Ever draw something randomly improvisation heavy put it away and find it again only for the drawing to explain to you in symbols exactly what you are going through? I find out later it is called retro-causation. Strange sense of comfort. Love your work.

This is my first video I have seen of yours. I love it.

I need to research more of what Jung theorized the root cause of synchronicities are, but I definitely noticed them far more when I was young. I feel many of my experiences had little-to-no profound meaning surrounding them, but I try to note the key aspects of my synchronicities just in case. Last year, I began law school. I had one research class where the professor gave out little gifts (things he would get at the dollar-bin at Target, such as candy, face masks, lip balm, etc.) to the first student to get answers to problems he would pose correct. That morning, despite having only seen the film once in middle school, I couldn't stop thinking about the film "Misery," namely the scenes involving the sleeping pills. I happened to win one prize, and he gave me a blu-ray copy of "Misery" (he never before nor since gave out DVDs as prizes). I found that strange and thought "well, the universe must want me to watch this movie again." I didn't have a DVD player, but I wanted to watch the movie, so when I got home, I streamed it. After it was over, the autoplay feature put on "Good Will Hunting," and I decided I would watch the first half. I got to the scene where Matt Damon defends himself in court. He gave a speech where he used the word "syncope," which I had never heard before. I looked it up and learned that it meant a condition where one is prone to fainting. The next day, while in between classes, a student who had vied with me over the answer that would win the Misery DVD prize me got up and stood at the front of the room by the podium, just chatting with the other students in the front row. All of a sudden, I got the strangest feeling, and just thought to myself: "something really bad is about to happen. She's going to faint." Five minutes later, that student said "I can't see," went pale in the face, and then fell to the ground. Students rushed to help her and I ran outside to get security to bring EMS aid. I came back in and she she was lying on the floor, sweaty, but conscious. She said "don't worry, this has happened before. I have 'syncopy.'" Of course, this all could have been coincidence, but if it were not for the overwhelming feeling that I knew she was going to faint, I would not have felt such a magical feeling around all of the syncope-synchronicities (the sleeping pills and Misery, my fixation on Matt Damon's use of the word in GWH) of those past 24 hours.

Had one just now when you talked about that Grant guy. Was listening to podcast earlier that referenced him lol

Had one recently too. Unsure of work/starting teaching. My mom has a dream im wearing a cream coloured sweater... day goes great. I jokingly say lets see if that somehow plays out today. Sure enough, one single student with a cream coloured sweater was overtly helpful all day. Asking to help clean stuff/write examples on the board to help others that couldn't see/picking up garbage... No joke. An absolute stand out gem of a student. That is pure chance? After she mentions it before I go?

Heyoo! Enjoyed hearing your story :) I have no idea who you are - this video was suggested on my home page, obviously because I research these subjects hahah. I experience synchronicities in waves, they're usually more prominent in the midst of my intense processing and releasing of some stuff that's been keeping me stuck in some area of life. It's like they surround me whenever I'm leveling up a bit. Their occurrence never ceases to amaze me, even though they've been happening for a long time now. Didn't really understand much from Jung's writings, but it's all good and fascinating haha. Have a good one! :)

Enjoyed the story! I’ve been having a lot of synchronicities lately. Happened a bunch in my mid 20’s and has now decided to start popping up again in my mid 40’s. I always took it as the universe giving me a bit of a wink. There’s something reassuring about it for me.

Your video showed up on my home page--really thought provoking stuff! I've been working on a surrealist video game for the past two years and I've been trying my best to honor the synchronicities I encounter. I named the game after a strange string of words that I encountered in an online music review. At the time, it just seemed like beautiful word salad. I went home, created the title screen, and immediately knew it was right. Two months later, I visited a social media profile of the writer who's inspired the game. His newest post announced a 10,000 word epic poem based off the silent film Metropolis. The name I had selected for my game was "Uncertainty of Impending Metropolis." Freaky stuff.

7:40 It’s interesting that you posit the possibility of it being a mere coincidence. Your video shares an interesting anecdote, one that I find relatable. What this brought to mind is liminality-that your distress from estrangement, like what one might feel from grief or loss, pulled you into a world where synchronicity entered more into your awareness. It’s easy for the skeptical mind to brush aside such things, but I find this pointing to a magic that mystics knew and that emerging science will better embrace. Like how your comic opens you to worlds where the improbable is possible, so goes our consciousness and the interactions we share in the world. Playing in this way opens us to the scrutiny of the critic or skeptic, but (once overcome) reveals layers of existence that defy understanding from previous models or belief structures. Finally, I leave you with this. I was writing a poem on applying fire (energy) to dead or dying things in your life, then letting these relationships go, rising from the ashes, and applying this fire to what inspires or excites. My wife, in the midst of this, shared with me an astrological reading for February (which is not typical for her to do), which incorporated all the themes from the poem. A poem with which she had no knowledge I was writing. A poem I had written to exorcise/expiate a relationship and gain clarity on the direction of my life. There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle. (Einstein quote) Synchronicities are everywhere. Embrace the limitations of the rational mind and embrace a magical world. Thank you for creation! 🙏

Love your art Tim, please post some video of your drawing and painting process with watercolours, your art is sublime and would love to see a long video on how you approach your illustrations.

Liked and subscribed! Looking forward to hearing your rambles!

I'm so excited for this. This will be my first time as game master, always been a player, but I've been following your work on Instagram. You're one of my favorite artist and when I discoverer you were making a TTRPG the hype came alive. So stoked. Cheers!

This looks awesome, and the preview looked pretty good too! When's it supposed to come out?

I take it Moebius was an inspiration?

This reminds me of those weird 90’s independent comics i’d pull out of the 50¢ bin and i am here for it.

Your work is fantastic, and this video is so informative. Just discovered this channel, thanks for sharing a bit of the process!

The variety and depth of colour is astounding- watching it come together looks like magic. When you go about colouring is it a case of just go for it and see how it turns out? I see the people have people coloured skin but otherwise is there much in the way of logic dictating things? It's hard to think you could really have a plan for something this complicated.
