A Complete, Unabridged and updated illustration of the Mysterious timeline of unexplained BS from Beyond Infinity!

“ I am afraid I cannot convey the peculiar sensations of time traveling. They are excessively unpleasant. There is a feeling exactly like that one has upon a switchback—of a helpless headlong motion! I felt the same horrible anticipation, too, of an imminent smash. As I put on pace, night followed day like the flapping of a black wing. The dim suggestion of the laboratory seemed presently to fall away from me, and I saw the sun hopping swiftly across the sky, leaping it every minute, and every minute marking a day.
I supposed the laboratory had been destroyed and I had come into the open air. I had a dim impression of scaffolding, but I was already going too fast to be conscious of any moving things. The slowest snail that ever crawled dashed by too fast for me. The twinkling succession of darkness and light was excessively painful to the eye. Then, in the intermittent darknesses, I saw the moon spinning swiftly through her quarters from new to full, and had a faint glimpse of the circling stars.
Presently, as I went on, still gaining velocity, the palpitation of night and day merged into one continuous greyness; the sky took on a wonderful deepness of blue, a splendid luminous colour like that of early twilight; the jerking sun became a streak of fire, a brilliant arch, in space; the moon a fainter fluctuating band; and I could see nothing of the stars, save now and then a brighter circle flickering in the blue."
-- the Time Machine H.G Wells

Brief : Update Artwork from per-existing facebook banner art and website index splash page art for 'the Mysterious Timeline of Unexplained Bullshit from Beyond Infinity'
ArkhªmHªus updated the Mysterious traveler character illustration having originally been based on Dennis Hopper's inadvertent Time traveler (Robert Roberts, Esquire to you, honky!) featured in the sci-fi classic B-grade My Science Project (1985) which in turn was based on an earlier bowler hat wearing avengers/ Patrick Mcknee style incarnation ( itself taking inspiration from Lord Kitchener's Briton Wants You 1914 recruitment posterby Alfred Leeter. ) used previously for an unrealized feature film project entitled GRAVY! When Bob Roberts returns from the 60's after the alien time machine was disabled he's wearing the same costume that Hopper wore when he played Billy in Easy Rider (1969) I added a variation of Billy's distinctive slouch hat and 'stache. I also used Zachariah (1971) an American Western musical film poster for inspiration.
Medium : Digital : Photographic retouching, illustration and Title Lettering created in Adobe Photoshop 2019 AD
Notes : I went for an amalgam of low key Steampunk references for the Mysterious Traveler, incorporating aesthetic designs inspired by 19th-century union military dress. Steampunk's origins have associations with the cyberpunk genre which works well for the time jumping concept inherent in the character. The genre's often set in an alternative history of the British Victorian era or the north american Weird West (another groovy hybrid genre), Steam power has maintained mainstream usage, the neo-Victorian movement does not extrapolate on technology while technology is a key aspect of steampunk. The viewer is supposed to get a sense of this guy being outside of time.

Additional Notes : The Artwork features Crapaud the mutated, gengineered alien HyPno-Toad, very similar indeed to our own Bufo marinus or CaneToad, renowned in Australia as a devastating introduced pest, the Cane Toad, AKA the friggin' Giant Neotropical Toad, the Dominican Toad or the Giant Marine Toad.
Bufotenin--5-hydroxy-dimethyltryptamine (5-HO-DMT or 5-OH-DMT), one of the chemicals excreted by the cane toad, is classified as a Class 1 drug under the Criminal Code Regulations of the Government of the Commonwealth of Australia, alongside heroin and cannabis (which is stupid -- nobody has ODed on delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, but I digress). The effects of bufotenin are similar to that of mild poisoning; the stimulation, which includes mild hallucinations, is only supposed to last under an hour...supposedly.

Back In the summer of 1955, Howard D. Fabing & J. Robert "Bob" Hawkins administered 5-hydroxy-dimethyltryptamine intravenously @ doses of up to 16 mg to prison inmates at Ohio State Penitentiary (Conditions in the prison have been described as "primitive") .
A purpling of the face was seen in these tests attributed to toxic blood circulation. One subject given 1 mg reported "a tight feeling in the chest" and prickling "as if he had been jabbed by needles." This was accompanied by a "fleeting sensation of pain in both thighs and a mild nausea."
Another subject given 2 mg reported "tightness in his throat". He had tightness in the stomach, tingling in pretibial areas, and developed a purplish hue in the face indicating blood circulation problems. He vomited after 3 minutes.
Another subject given 4 mg complained of "chest oppression" and that "a load is pressing down from above and my body feels heavy." The subject also reported "numbness of the entire body" and "a pleasant Martini feeling-my body is taking charge of my mind". The subject reported he saw red spots passing before his eyes and red-purple spots on the floor, and the floor seemed very close to his face. Within 2 minutes these visual effects were gone, and replaced by a yellow haze, as if he were looking through a lens filter.
Fabing and Hawkins commented that bufotenin's psychedelic effects were "reminiscent of LSD and mescaline but develop and disappear more quickly, indicating rapid central action and rapid degradation of the drug".
