ISBN-13: 9780292726260, 978-0292726260. Much has been written about shamanism in both scholarly and popular literature, but few authors have linked it to another significant visual realm-art. Using ethnographic accounts of shamanic trance experiences, Stone defines a core set of trance vision characteristics, including enhanced senses, ego dissolution, bodily distortions, flying, spinning and undulating sensations, synaesthesia, and physical transformation from the human self into animal and other states of being.
