ᵁᴾᴰᴬᵀᴱᴰ & 🔁 My View on »Psychedelic Art« and More

Even the term "psychedelic" itself underwent a semantic shift, and soon came to mean "anything in youth culture which is colorful, or unusual, or fashionable." Wells, Brian. Psychedelic Drugs. New York: Jason Aronson, 1974. pgs. 19-20, from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychedelic_art#cite_ref-8
The term "Psychedelic art" was originaly coined by British psychologist Humphry Osmond. I don't like this term, it is old and misshapen way to talk about art. The term "Psychedelic art" offends me as a web designer and I hope that it will no longer be used.

It's also quite annoying seeing 'Dr' in name titles of people hanging out on social networks, don't you think so  😊 Not thinking about Dr. Dre of course 🤣
