Check out the video for "Crazy" by Gnarles Barkley. It features a Rorschach Test as a main element of the video's effects. This is one of the tests given to Kaysen in her novel.
Note the imagery in the video and what it implies about the viewer who is watching as the ink blots transform themselves into shapes before his very eyes. What is Barkley saying by his song/video?
After a few viewings, read the lyrics for "Crazy". We will be doing a close reading of the novel and drawing parallels to the song itself as an assignment.
In addition, we will also be considering Barkey's question in regard to Kaysen's work-- does the information presented in the novel make Kaysen "crazy"?
