epilepsy

Description

Epilepsy is an unscheduled improvisational show that erupts in the electric theater called the brain. Neither actor nor audience is invited, and the star finds themselves offstage before they even notice. The uncontrollable neural party is kept in fragile peace by security guards called medication and medical care. When the main act goes rogue, the theater fills not with applause but bewilderment. Misconceptions and stigma serve as yet another spotlight illuminating the production.

Definitions

• An electrical troublemaker that launches a carnival in the brain’s circuitry unbidden.
• An uninvited guest throwing impromptu neural parties, indiscriminately involving both self and bystanders.
• A rogue internal hurricane kept at bay only by the shields of medication and medical care.
• A merciless light switch that plunges the theater of consciousness into darkness in an instant.
• A mischievous duo oscillating on the fine line between the on and off of neural activity.
• A motorbike gang of electrical signals wreaking havoc in a lawless cerebral zone.
• An overzealous MC dragging its star onto the stage without prior warning.
• A master of excess production performing new acts every time without rehearsal.
• A quiet rebel shattering the facade of calm at its whim.
