HYPNOPOMP
[noun]
also known as a hypnopompic state; the state of consciousness leading out of sleep, a term coined by the psychical researcher Frederic Myers. Its twin is the hypnagogic state at sleep onset; though often conflated, the two states are not identical. The hypnagogic state is rational waking cognition trying to make sense of non-linear images and associations; the hypnopompic state is emotional and credulous dreaming cognition trying to make sense of real world stolidity.

Peace Knife (Ikul)

  • Culture: Bushoong Clan, Kuba People
  • Location: Kasai Region, Democratic Republic of the Congo (Zaire)
  • Dated: early 20th century or earlier

This fine example of an ikul knife comes from the Bushoong clan of the Kuba people of the Kasai region. Both sides of the blade have an S or ogee shape, and are marked with five finely incised lines that follow the outline of the S. The two blade halves are polished and dulled black on each side, respectively, to imitate a negative mirror image of each other.

The hilt is inlaid with brass and copper chips. The pommel is incised with an intricately interlaced design reminiscent of the weaving seen on Kuba raffia textiles. The base of the pommel has a traditional and identifiable guilloche pattern that is typically of Kuba shoowa designs.
