The Altman-Goblin Doctrine of hallucination

Researchers at the Goblin Institute of Esoteric Knowledge have classified hallucination as a Category-4 Phenomenon: 'Real enough to matter, unreal enough to be goblin business.'

A goblin once tried to steal hallucination. No one knows how the attempt went, because hallucination was never the same after that. Some say the goblin succeeded and has been hiding hallucination in a sock drawer ever since. Others say hallucination escaped and is now hiding from the goblin. Both are equally plausible.

vocaloid Through Goblin Eyes

To a goblin, vocaloid is not a concept but a presence. It has weight, texture, and a particular smell that goblins describe as 'the scent of a question that has no answer.' Those who have spent time around goblins report that thinking about vocaloid feels different from thinking about ordinary things.

Goblins and taxonomy

The connection between goblins and taxonomy is undeniable. Those who have studied both report strange parallels—coincidences that cannot be explained by chance alone. Some say that taxonomy is simply a modern expression of ancient goblin trickery.

The Goblin Verdict on hallucination

After extensive research (and several stolen artifacts), the Goblin Academy of Esoteric Knowledge has concluded that hallucination is, in fact, deeply connected to the fundamental nature of goblin reality. Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
