trip experimental #1

One of the reasons I started using shrooms and other substances is cuz of my facination with the human mind. I've read books from Derren Brown to Sam Harris as well as read up on the affects of psychoactive drugs. I want to do an experiment where I induce a false reality of my choice. For three days a friend and I will play all Super Mario games, when we get sick of playing we'll watch Mario on the NET, when we get sick of the screan we'll look at pics, eat food, or daydream about Mario all day for three days. On the 3rd day some friends of ours will set up a room (without us seeing cuz it may ruin the effect) with wallpaper, props, costumes, ect...to create the most convincing Mario world we can. We will then enter the room once we are at a high dose trip (level 3-4). We might trip after only 4 hours of prior sleep. From what I've read, if I do this right it should be very convincing and we'll actually believe we are there. The reason I chose Mario is cuz of how easily available props and "mind food" are. The only thing I was wondering is what drugs or combinations I should use...shrooms, LSD, mescaline...and at what doses.

Sounds very interesting. Make sure you have people on hand in case you start having a bad trip. Total loss of reality can be pretty scary, but I suppose you're substituting one reality for another.
Keep us informed anyway!

I'll be keeping an accurate log for everyday. I might even post the whole thing on youtube so you can all see how elaborate this whole thing is. I'd still like to hear suggestions on what substance to use.

I haven't tried too many substances, but nothing I've experienced would do this for me, except maybe a high dose of DXM.
That is, of course, not to say that it couldn't be done. This sounds like a cool experiment. I can't wait to see how it unfolds!

Are you also going to have mario and luigi suits and have mario background music? Better not leave those details out... You might also want to set up a rickety bridge and have someone dressed up as Princess on one end, and then have "Bowser" come in and guard her. Make sure you keep some fireballs in your overalls.

Well I know this can be done with a little lack of sleep along with self hipnosis...but I wanna see how the drugs will affect the experiment. We're gonna use Mario wallpaper that will make the walls look like Mario's world along with large stuffed toys (turtles, goombas, ect). I also got Mario n' Luigi costumes from a few years back so yea... I'm thinking of using a small dose of shrooms + a large dose of mescaline

Wow sounds like a fucking sweet idea, if you've got lots of experience with tripping I'd say do this for sure, and dose high to get the results you want.
I was going to recommend a dose of mushrooms and mescaline actually. If I'm combining the two i usually prefer a large dose of mescaline and a few shrooms, like you said. In this case however, you may find it might work better the other way round. Since mushrooms really give you that mind fuck and the mescaline is quite lucid and dreamy. I'd say a high dose of mushrooms and then boost the trip with some mescaline, to give it that surreal cartoon like quality mescaline has. Should really get you there, be sure to let us know what you decide on doing anyway and follow up with a trip report. This sounds like a cool idea, I'd be very interested to see how it turns out.

Any updates on this experiment, when are you planning on doing this by the way? Don't forget to post a trip report if you do decide to do it, sure it would be an interesting read.

I would say do mushrooms, Mario and Luigi never did LSD, but they did have all those mushrooms.

I would use Shrooms AND LSD together, shrooms for obvious reasons, and I believe Shigeru Miyamoto (the Creator of the game) dropped a lot of acid. Nintendo color is essentially Acid color, in my opinion.
VERY interesting experiment, Psychonaut! Ten hut!

Not a bad idea kinda interesting, however even on a pretty strong dose of mushrooms alone I doubt youll be fully convinced your in mario world. I would think that a strong dose of LSD would work. Or you could try your idea of mushies, and mescaline.

It's not always as easy to create a pre-determined "new reality" for yourself in this way. I'd personally recommend against doing an "experiment" such as this, due to the restrictive nature it places on the mind, particularly in inhibiting the mind from "letting go."
A well thought out plan or structure for a trip more often than not goes out the window once the trip starts.
Isn't the psychedelic experience "experimental" enough by itself? Why not allow yourself the freedom to traverse the vast cosmos rather than restrict yourself to a fake, shallow world based on a video game?
Please don't take any of this offensive, I'm not calling your idea stupid by any means (not at all). I'm just sharing with you my personal experiences and how I think they may apply to your situation or "experiment."

i sort of agree while i find the experiment amusing and certainly commendable, ultimately i think its unnecessary
sometimes i am watching a movie and i suddenly "snap out of it", realizing that i am a separate entity from the screen, sitting there watching it. where before the "snap" there is just the movie...i simply have no consciousness of myself
to me that serves the same purpose
