Optical Illusions - are they easier to see/not see while shroomed?
    #14465437 - 05/16/11 11:10 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

I've posted a few of these things before but thought it'd be cool to have a thread devoted to it.  Idea is that psychedelics generally improve your ability to see patterns, so illusions containing subtle patterns should be easier to see while shroomed, OK? 

Add whatever comments you have and get rockin'!  :Feelstrippyman:



There's a face in them there beans - where is it?



There's a guy standing around here somewhere - where is he?



Can you spot all thirteen faces?  Does it get easier (I mean like obvious) when shroomed?

Have a better one! :awesomenod:



:peace:PS

this is awesome, deffinitley bookmarking for next time i enter the shroom world.
Another thing to try is the video that you stare into that gives you morphing visuals, i watched it on shrooms and it took a second to make large visuals

This effect is called pareidolia. One of the very well known effects of psychedelics is the extreme stimulation of pareidolia. Ever looked at the clouds on a large dose of shrooms?

But yes, looking at those images you posted do become more pronounced when your tripping absolute face - but then again I'd image that you'd get a whole range of new faces that you can't see sober as well.

So when it comes to counting the "real" faces, my bet is that that would be a lot harder on a psychedelic because the increased pareidolia would be causing you to see faces everywhere.

An interesting natural version of this happened to me on LSD. I was with a friend and he pointed out a big black and yellow caterpillar in the tree we were in front of. He asked me "are those the caterpillars that turn into the big orange butterflies". I said "yes". As I looked at it in the tree though I got that psychedelic pattern enhancement effect where I could vividly see all the other caterpillars in the tree as though they were popping out at me. I started pointing them out to my friend and he was like "wow, how do you know where they all are??".

After the trip I noticed that while I was right for the most part, some of the caterpillars I pointed out didn't actually exist and were just dead leaves. :tongue2:

Oh I love those hallucination vids, when you're tripping they mix with your visuals so well it's amazing.

Many times, bro. :awesomenod:  But the interesting thing is, the clouds look back at me. :lol: :yinyang2:

However, it's not limited to seeing things that "aren't" there, it's much more useful than that, because it enables you to see things that ARE there but hard to see.  That's my point in a nutshell. :thumbup:

Nah, you need to try it both ways.  There's no question about how the real ones pop right out and there aren't any others in that piece of art.  You have to hunt them out while straight.  I tried that illusion months ago when I first saw it and found 12.  Yesterday while tripping the faces were prominent and I didn't have to look at all.  Today I'll see if I can manage to count them. :laugh2:

:lol: Yup.  That's what I call the "search image" effect - once you spot the first Liberty Cap in the field you start to see them everywhere.

OK, y'all, here's a mess more of these things.  Some of them I haven't even studied as I'm interested in how easy they become while tripping.  They all came from THIS great site, BTW, and you can browse a lot more of 'em up.  But this is easier. :lol:

BTW some are easy, some are hard, some are really tricky and some are sick.  Enjoy!

These are all hidden images like the 13 faces.  The name of the file (in the link) says how many if they know:

   

These are more strange:



This is Salvador Dali and, well, uhm, hmm:



And this is just plain sick. Check it out, then scroll way down and look again:



:peace:PS





















































And yeah, I actually know how that one works, but if I tell you you'll die. :zombie2:
