"Stream of consciousness describes "the continuous flow of sense‐perceptions, thoughts, feelings, and memories in the human mind". (Wikipedia, 2012)
In other words, it is a reflection of the unfiltered madness floating around inside one's head. See below for example:
Hangover Sunday August 26th, 2012
Hmmm... if you were to write a story, what would it tell? What concept would you try to portray? What style would you employ? Hmmm.... so many ideas floating around... so many opinions and perceptions and images... how would you knit them together so they become one focused entity? Would you choose one moment in time? Or loop together many moments... piecing them together like one of those photo mosaics. Many moments in time, from close up seeming to be random events, but from just a step back, fitting together to create one unified picture.
Or would you just go wild? Throwing together images and colours and objects, and leaving it to the reader to see in it what they like. To make sense of what only you can truly say is 100% madness. Hmmm... can you tell I am overtired and just spewing nonsense? Sometimes I think it is when I am at my best! Certainly the most natural... No more over analyzing... just letting thoughts flow in a steady stream from mind out my finger tips and onto the screen. Stream of consciousness - what a beautiful, terrifying, nonsensical, flawless concept!
Try it sometime... just to see what comes out! It may surprise you, you 'logical' thinkers you!
