Dig DiRT

'Back in the day', as I like to say at work, X and I had worked on a little something we called Demented Radical Thinking, DiRT. We cultivated this as a means of altering reality through the use of our minds. People tended to consider us quite nuts for it and we would often accept the compliment as the freight train rolled through the classroom.

Turns out, we weren't nearly as original as we thought at the time. We did, however, find ourselves in good company. Salvador Dali utilized a method he called Critical Paranoia. While not as all encompassing as DiRT, I must still give a nod to those who trod this path before us.
