I wasn't familiar with this work, Portrait of Juan de Pareja Repairing a String on His Mandolin (https://www.salvador-dali.org/cataleg_raonat/resized_imatge.php?obra=761&imatge=1), until I came across it today.

Fwiw, my recommendation is to NOT use mind-altering substances whilst engaged in changing strings - you'll definitely need your linear/rational brain for it.

Otoh, maybe several pokes and an hour-and-a-half later ... the experience may be worth it - turning the mundane into an epic journey. .
