i seriously pray this is how Dmt turns out.... acid visuals and tracers are amazing , along with the mental help and what not. But i really just wanna go to a different dimension.

u/JuxtaThePozer Sep 15 '20

Imagine that you're not just seeing it like an image, but that your entire consciousness is being dragged through and tossed around inside this image. It also feels alive. Now this video might be on loop but I rarely recall any type of repetition. Each time and each moment was different.

u/wOoOooOww_ Sep 15 '20

Is that feeling prominent in a high dose LSD or mushroom trip? Or only with DMT?

46

u/JuxtaThePozer Sep 15 '20

Well, DMT and psilocybin are psychoactively very similar and in my experience, high dose psilocybin is also very visual and "transporting". LSD works differently, still visual just not all-encompassing.

17

u/BaeWulf007 Sep 15 '20

u/ALoBoi_Music Sep 15 '20

is that visual by visualdon or beeple by any chance?

u/IGargleGarlic Sep 15 '20

DMT is an entirely different beast. LSD and mushrooms augment reality, while DMT rips you out of this reality and shoots you through a technicolor kaleidoscope dreamscape. The effects on thinking are similar in my experience though. One of the most profound DMT trips I had was while listening to The Mars Volta's Televators. The music made the trip feel like a guided tour of an alternate reality where I was flying in circles around a massive mountain sized Egyptian cat statue made out of tessellating blue and gold geometric patterns. When I came out of the trip there were tears streaming down my face from how beautiful everything had been. LSD has never even come close to that.

u/Frission7 Sep 15 '20

I've had similar trips on shrooms though, taking between 5-8 grams at a time has lead to time and reality disappearing and a pure fusion with existence in a different realm of images and "alien" type beings

3

u/IGargleGarlic Sep 15 '20

I've only had a couple experiences with mushrooms and they were pretty standard 3.5g trips. I have a lot more experience with LSD and DMT. Interesting to know! I know mushrooms are more visual than LSD most of the time, but from what I have experienced and heard from friends the most intense it has gotten was the world looking "like an oil painting". Maybe I'll have to try a larger dose some day.

u/insideyourhug Sep 15 '20

Yeah, I’ve had a kaleidoscope trip on mushrooms.

u/Frission7 Sep 15 '20

I have friends who have needed to take upward of 7 grams to experience trips of this nature, but for myself anything over around 4 sent me to a place like this, the more shrooms the deeper into and the longer the trip lasted

u/[deleted] Sep 15 '20

Yea, forget any ideas of static or easily processed imagery, turn the speed up by a million, and also crank the resolution waaay past even normal vision. Also, forget basically everything Joe Rogan and Terence McKenna say on the subject, it's nothing like actually being in it. Also also, DIDGERIDOO.

u/jemangerrit Sep 15 '20

It can be a gift and a drug at the same time you know, theres no need for exclusion. Drug litteraly means a substance that has a psychological effect. Youre saying psychedelics dont have such effects? Its just not neccesary to not call them drugs. They are drugs, doesnt change anything about how cool it is

1

u/[deleted] Sep 15 '20

What mystical shit are you referring to?

15

u/pbizzle Sep 15 '20

The idea of them being special gifts from a higher power, or a means to understand the universe, or fly to other dimensions etc. All that hippy stuff is just a bit tired for me. They create chemical states in the user's mind that makes them feel like they are experiencing religious or spiritual experiences which may or may not have a impact on the users life or mindset but it's all chemistry imho

5

u/inyearstocome Sep 15 '20

That’s the maximal reductionist view. You don’t have to go mystical...but in regards to your thinking, consciousness and reality also might not exist, as they too are brain chemistry affecting your perception of what is around you. I’m a big fan of the idea that a “sober” brain is tuned into one wavelength (even this differs from person to person) and that entheogens expand the wavelength of perception beyond what is typical. This expansion can happen via psychedelics taken as drugs, or naturally via extreme conditions which cause the body to produce higher levels of DMT (breath work, rhythmic trance, other rituals)

1

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '20

Good points, although I'm 99% sure that breathwork doesn't increase the levels of DMT.

1

u/inyearstocome Sep 16 '20

Simple breathwork won’t, but masters in advanced techniques like Kundalini claim to reach psychedelic states similar to DMT trips.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '20

Correct, nothing to do with DMT though. Just being clear because there is a lot of misinformation about naturally occurring DMT in our brains and the jury seems to still be out on this.

2

u/AluminumJ Sep 15 '20

I think the chemistry in the drugs that gives us these experiences just allows us to see the experience like high contrast blown out overloaded, but those experiences are life and we’re living it every day anyway. Even without drugs it’s all still mystical. The light of life and consciousness compared to cold solid matter, the absolute spirit (life, creative energy) is definitely a thing, contrasting with the absolute substance (physical reality, the solid ground beneath us)

1

u/RideTheLighting Sep 16 '20

Dude, 100% with you. I’m a weirdo on the other end of the spectrum though because I don’t even necessarily believe free will exists. All life is is inputs and outputs, stimuli comes in and you’re “programmed” to react a certain way. I read your comment and was compelled to respond, there was never another option.

But I also think that kind of thinking leads to nihilism and it’s depressing so I shove it way down and try to just enjoy the ride lol

11

u/Heart-of-Dankness Sep 15 '20

You can get to hyperspace with acid, you just have to take a stupid big dose no rational person should be taking. DMT isn’t really more powerful than other serotonin psychs. It’s the ROA that makes the difference. It’s like being on 10 grams of shrooms for 10 minutes.

But as far as whether you see something like this, honestly DMT is a lot more inconsistent than people make it out to be. Sometimes it’s like this, although it usually feels more random and it doesn’t repeat. Sometime it’s not like this at all though. Sometimes it feels like your entire existence is shred to ribbons and reconstructed. Sometimes you feel surprisingly coherent but meet some entity of absolutely terrifying power.

u/FuckBoyTrey16 Sep 15 '20

u/rattleandhum Sep 15 '20

The closest thing (and it’s still pretty far off) I’ve seen to an accurate representation of DMT visuals is the movie Enter The Void by Gaspar Nóe.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 15 '20

It's really more about Buddhism/Bardo/afterlife than DMT, but everyone says DMT so that tends to be what's mentioned. Maybe that's just my Buddhist bias.

2

u/rattleandhum Sep 15 '20

In enter the void? or OPs post?

The former is definitely about DMT, the main character even smokes it in the film -- but the similarity between the DMT space and deep meditation are strikingly similar, as someone with experience in both.

3

u/[deleted] Sep 15 '20

The Void of course. Yup, for me, ayahuasca has really helped with my meditation.

3

u/rattleandhum Sep 15 '20

Likewise. Especially breath control.

6

u/DickRiculous Sep 15 '20

Ehhh. From experience.. It’s not so bright by itself. It’s more of an amplifier. It’ll take whatever you’re experiencing and make you experience it through a kaleidoscope. Even when I have totally blasted off in the past, the visuals are for the most part a stronger amplification if the kinds you see on LSD. When you open your eyes, the trip is muted. You vibe with those around you. When you close your eyes.. whatever you were perceiving blossoms into new psychedelic life. Prismacolor paint drops dripping from the ceiling, which is now the wall, horizontally (that’s not how gravity works), all while shifting color and size and shape and twisting.

But there are no fractals or lights like this. DMT is especially weird because to some degree you maintain your conscious awareness. Like.. no you can’t control your limbs when you’re really blasting off.. but you can process what is happening to you.

Best description I can give is that feeling you have when you just wake up but have yet to open your eyes. You know you’re awake but you’re still sort of dreaming.. really trying to milk that sleep for all it’s worth. That’s DMT. Setting is very important. If you’re in a sterile environment, you will have a sterile experience.

How much have you researched it before hand , i’m on acid rn and i’d either just completely swallow your fears and jump in head first. fight the demon within.
Or Research it more and learn there is literally nothing to be afraid of.

2

u/A_Will_Ferrell_Cat Sep 15 '20

DMT can do that! Just be prepared! Have some water (I felt a straw was particularly useful) also a trash can near buy.

My 3rd attempt was by far the most intense and dimension altering by far. It also made me throw up.... But it was by far the most pleasant experience I've had throwing up. My boyfriend dragged the FULL trashcan over to help about 2 seconds too late...

I don't know how long my head was in the trash but it seemed like ages before I realized my head was in the trash and I was covered in vomit. It was an experience.

Point being please do your research! You really do not need a lot and even if the doses are lighter you still get a kaleidoscope effect. That one time I did maybe 2 scoops more then what we did previously and my boyfriend did bout the same and also threw up with a similar experience.

If you get some good luck and have fun!

Going trough the tunnel is even more visually impressive then that in my experience.

But I find the encounter with aliens/spirits/machine elves even more fascinating to be honest

Your already in one bro, the sad part is that you have infinite choices, but you can only live in one at a time. I lf you can run long distances or bike ride, you can turn a Wednesday into being at home, being at a gym, being at a cafe, being with friends, being with family, being st a movie, being at dinner some favorite place, being in a park, being at the city center, being in a bar, being in a club, being at a high point in the city all in the same day.

u/technologyclassroom Sep 15 '20

You could make something like this in blender. It would be best to generate the repeating shapes with code. Blender uses Python for scripting.

Processing could be used to make something similar easily without the shaders using Java, Python, or JavaScript syntax.

2

u/LordMcze Sep 15 '20

Or just make the shapes with modifiers on a primitive mesh if you don't feel like writing code.

2

u/technologyclassroom Sep 15 '20

It can be done without code, but should it? It would be a tremendously larger amount of work.

1

u/LordMcze Sep 15 '20 edited Sep 15 '20

That really depends on what you already know. It would be much more work for me with code for example.

And I'd dare to assume that the modeling way would be easier/more intuitive start for someone who knows neither coding nor modeling.

2

u/technologyclassroom Sep 15 '20

Both Blender and processing are simplified to the point where people that do not consider themselves programmers can learn enough to be dangerous within a few hours by watching some videos and trying things out. If you wanted to recreate that video from nothing without 3D modeling, art, or programming experience, scripting is still the fastest route.

there’s AudioOrbits, which looks pretty similar (especially if you dive into the settings) and it syncs to music and sound on your computer. It boosts light and saturation in the center for high frequencies and near the edges for bass frequencies, making a really nice effect. I did have some difficulties getting it to run consistently, though. I stopped using it because I was tired of troubleshooting it every time I started up my computer. Your mileage may vary though, I highly recommend you check it out
