week 7- postcards from the edge of consciousness

The deep and personal experience we get in this piece made this informative as well as sensational. We get an idea of the sensory deprivation and the hot tubs provided out there to host such an experience. When the piece first started I thought it was describing a fiction or dream-filled background. I think this non fiction was really empowered by the description of the speaker in the chamber. The description used strong words and images to create a atmosphere where the reader felt connected to the described experience. This piece was written really well in my opinion and balanced the facts, the experience and data on research done.
