Stock footage in weird mix/edits. And in between some animation sequences that are not very creative, with a rather bland style and low-level technique re the underlying artwork.
Even if I was watching this on acid, I'd be either bored out of my mind (that's really something) or -more likely- this would be so annoying that I'd rather do anything else.
There's nothing edgy about this. You can talk about psychedoodles all you want, -it's hard to see why this show exists. It's plain bad. Not "so bad it's good. Not "you have to be high to get it". Just not well made and -in whichever way you look at it- not very entertaining.
If you're looking for an alternative, I would highly recommend The Midnight Gospel. The first episode is a bit meh compared to the rest. My favourite is the last episode.

This show is very trippy, I don't know if it's because I'm not watching this on acid but I don't really find the random trippy nature of this show entertaining for more than a couple minutes. Defiantly not something I would watch on my own time.
I'm pretty confused by the high rating. It's basically stock footage and low quality animation jumbled together based on a one word theme. It's like a first year film student had to produce a project in one sitting. Very dull, or perhaps too cerebral for me to "get it." There's a reason most of the reviews mention acid or psychedelics - you are unlikely to enjoy this sober.
I've been keeping up with this show since late 2012. I have loved just about every episode of the show. It is a psychedelic experience without the drugs. You will be amazed and you will be disturbed. Your mind will be blown.
The show is a collaboration of random shorts found on the internet and other various places mixed with trippy music videos and other off the wall stuff coupled with lots of "datamosh" transitions and a large variety of other crazy effects.
I would advise reviewing each episode for yourself before you show your kids any of them. There can be some very disturbing segments of the show.
I would recommend almost every episode of this show to anyone. The reason I say almost is because, in my opinion, the episode "Light" was a bit bland for my taste. But any other episode is definitely worth your time. You yourself may even enjoy the episode "Light"! Some may argue that you need to be high to get any enjoyment out of these shorts but I for one enjoy them just as much when I'm sober. Each episode is a thrill ride in itself and I tend to watch them over and over again. The transitions and animations never cease to amaze me.

A random amount of psychedelic shorts in various forms from animated to claymation to NASA videos to music videos and many other forms, pertaining to a specific theme for each episode.
I have not been let down by any of the episode so far. My only complaint is that each episode is only around 10 minutes long, I wish they were longer(that's what she said).
Every episode has its own theme and vary in content greatly, except that they all share the psychedelic experience in common. Perfect for watching sober, even better with some help... Great job!
I have my dvr set to record every episode, new or re-run, they are instant classics for the psychedelic community! Trip on.
