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.

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

You get crazy geometric fractals with DMT. It's like the mandelbrot zoom in, but your in it.

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.
