The Psychology of Lava Lamps

The States of Lava

My Lava Lamp, like all Lava Lamps, goes through several states before reaching “Lava”. It has been my experience that some are quick to judge and become critical, when in fact it is their patience that is at issue.

Following are four of the discrete states of Lava: Cold, Earwax, Snot and Lava.

Ok, ever since I started this guide, my lava lamp has been a popular topic of conversation at the office. With all this new attention, it seems to have acquired aspirations beyond its station. It has been expressing itself in ways that can at least be described as “sculptural” and may represent a primitive form of communication.

I will try to get an example on film.
