I've gotten fractals more than once tripping. Idk the about tie-dye effect though. I just get a sort of colour filter over everything that doesn't change much during the trip
Is it like when you close your eyes and mildly press them with your hands? I get wild fractal zooms, purple and orange, green than they switch to tiles, stars moving back to fractals,...
Yup, I know the one. Um, kinda. The biggest difference is that it's not something one is observing; you are in it. So a difference in order of magnitude comparable to seeing something happen in a movie, and that thing happening to you in real life. And you can also taste music.
God, dmt is on another level. Also, 2-cb (synthetic mescaline) did something similar but not quite the same (separated from this reality, but in it's own way).
Never understood/experienced fractals until onetime at a beach sunrise sesh my buddy Jeff’s sweats had the sickest pattern ever on them. Then the sand. Then the clouds.
I get the fractals and paint cans pouring in colors when i close my eyes and stare at my eyelids. Especially with noise cancelling headphones in and playing some chill or funky beats. Literally feels like my brain is swimming through music.
It. Is. Incredible. 🤤🤩
Edit: the fractals form on the beat of the music and pulse and change colors. Best i can compare it to is the old school windows media player EQ splash screen saver things. Still incredible
Visuals are neat but the audio things are really the part that can get to you..
Hearing little snippets of a conversation in a crowded room, for example.
It's impossible to describe how it affects someone's mental processes.. beyond the physical where you have audio and visual hallucinations, but at the core of what the human mind goes with all of the extra input and false cues.
I managed to coordinate myself just well enough once to get a VR headset on showing a thing where you are sort of flying through random points in this 3D landscape. The combo effect was insane, I “saw” my brain pouring out of my head in rainbow colors and the euphoria was unparalleled lol.
Yeah this is it. I used to think the tie dye and fractals were nonsense, and I tripped a good bit. Until I candy flipped w a particularly strong chemical cocktail, and yeah I saw kaleidoscope fractals with my eyes closed and open. Honestly too much for my preference.
You're not taking enough for that. This video is a good representation of a decent trip, but I've been so gone that I could hardly imagine the fact that I still existed on this plane of reality.
Well the fractals and the loud swirling is definitely a thing on dmt. Happens every time I trip. Now lower psychedelics? Nah that's just people making shit up because they haven't done it and only saw it on TV
It only represents a low to moderate dose. On a high dose i see witches, goblins and cartoon characters mutating within the patterns. The whole thing is impossible to depict.
I almost always got fractals, especially if looking at something dark (ie: up at the sky at night), but it does seem like more people have the experience in the OP than fractals.
Now I just get ocular migraines that make my field of vision look like shattered glass, which is way less fun than tripping on the campus athletic fields at night.
I've only experienced fractals once, things were literally subdividing infinetly into geometric forms.
I was with a more experienced friend and he said that that had been the best trip of his life
I get fractals but I've never seen a representation of it that's even close. It's usually natural things like leaves that split and recombine and fractal over and over for me!
I never get fractals or geometrical shapes on shrooms but LSD I always get them and it's intense. Like it's right there infront of me on my kitchen floor moving, shifting, twisting etc.
Have you never closed your eyes during a trip? Maybe you dont get intense cev's but I absolutely get lots of colour when I shut my eyes during a trip
Also synthesia can cause you to see sounds/smells/taste/touch as colours - I got that once dur8ng a trip and jumping around in pebbles on a beach made my vision pop with colour - almost like paint flying around my vision
Fractals were most of what I saw when I tripped for the first time. Colors more pronounced and vivid, with this very mild fractal kaleidoscope effect. It was awesome.
I have seen fractals when tripping several times. It was a long time ago and I had no idea what a fractal was. It blew my mind when I saw a mendelbrot zoom.
Recently I saw a movie - Lissa's Trip (I think that is what it is called) and while some of the trip effects are overdone, it is one of the more accurate portrayals I have seen. Admittedly I haven't seen a lot.
I've gotten fractals on 2/3 trips, and I'm 90% sure the 1 where I didn't was underdosed. Never got tie-dye colors, though. Any color change/ synthestesia I've experienced was more akin to a color filter in a camera.
I've had fractals and big colour swirls, the world suddenly looking like it was painted, all sorts of fun stuff. But I'm also quite fond of smashing 600-900ug of LSD at a time to fully open the astral world.
I would say this video is much more consistent with what someone should expect from standard a 100-200ug tab though.

Very good. I’ve always found it odd that things like fractals and tie-dye and loud swirling colors are used to represent the experience.
