Ever since i tripped, i have been seeing these fractal type things in my eyes. They are dark and they have certain shape mostly circular, but they are always somehow connected. Im sure there are many people who have this, but what are those exactly? Iv been trying to look them up, but i have no idea how to word what i am seeing. I would really appreciate if anybody gave me any answers, not that those bother me or anything because i play with them 24/7 its pretty fun but i do want to know what they are.:sunny:
hmm i don't know, i get these little dots that will fade in then out sometimes. no clue what they are though
I don't know what they're called, but there's little specs of junk floating around in your eye. I used to see them LOTS when I was a little kid, and then it kind of stopped, returned when i started smoking weed, and returned at lot after tripping some. I can see them now at will, just looking for them. I think it's the way that psychedelics let you analyze things differently, sort of like the "hollow mask" illusion. You see them because you're looking, instead of looking FOR something in particular. If this is what it is, you can probably manipulate their motion with your eyes, like move your eyes and then stop and see them do what you'd expect for stuff floating in jelly. Also, they can trigger minor visuals for me, if I see a lot of them I may also get a slash of light or color across them, nowadays. Should be quite harmless, unless they get in the way of things.
the patterns you see are inscribed in your brain... there's a really neat article with a lot of theory into it somewhere on the internet... I'm not a doctor nor did i read it thoroughly but try googling (psychedelic fractal explanation) or something
He did not describe fractals at all. I expect he heard that word used to describe psychedelic hallucinations and doesn't know what it really means.
The things you see Roorshack, are cells moving across the surface of your eyes. After I did acid for the first time I saw them in color on occasion. They were orange. I'd never seen them in orange before the acid, but I've seen them in their natural form.
I'm not convinced.... but maybe. Something I DO see after acid is stuff like stains on my wall that jump out at me, because of the same things that make the hollow mask not work on intoxicated people. At first these things can be so vivid and obvious I think they're hallucinations, and then I realize they're there. I also notice little imperfections, like how the corners of my room zig-zag a bit where the drywall wasen't the perfect size so they just bent it a little bit to join it. Also, this used to SORT OF happen, but since doing psychedelics (originally happened after DOB, I think... maybe a bit after dex) when I wake up and I'm quite tired, like to walk a dog, everything flashes, especially if I go out into daylight then come back to my dark room. I did this morning, and all the dark areas where rythmically flashing as though I had a strobe under a blanket or something. And I got some acid swirlys. I guess it was a full on (visual) flashback and it seemed like it could have been fun, but I was too tired to enjoy it, and went back to bed, where it quickly stopped and was replaced by passing the fuck out. Also, what I just described is much more intense than any visuals I've ever had on acid, though it's dwarfed by the beautiful hyper visual activity on DOB. But this was in the style of LSD.
I get an entoptic fractal effect. While the most common is blue field, I can experience it with just about any colour of back ground. I also get 'snow vision' in low-light. Both I've suspected of being related to my lsd use but I can't say for sure that was the causation. Blue Field Entopic Effect
sometimes when reading now I see a kind of rainbow sparkle on the edges of text and black images. It is a really nice effect.
from a link in your article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floater I think that's what the OP's describing.
yeah i actually have determined that no too long ago, i was looking into the light, and as you start to see these lines forming right infron of you that are just created by squinting your eyes, and in the backround of the light theres was just like super magnified cell looking things had are also suseptible to gravity and flow like a river towards the ground.
