What do you see in pitch blackness?
    #8015835 - 02/13/08 12:10 AM (15 years, 11 months ago)

Before using psychedelics, I can't be certain on it but I could swear that in a pitch black room I would have absolutely no visual sensation whatsoever. Just blackness, dark, nothingness. After using psychedelics, I never recall being able to see "just black" rather I see little static-like images imprinted everywhere. Does anyone whether they've tripped or not just see pure darkness in a pitch black room?

I see all kinds of shit when it's pitchblack.

Globs of color, static, etc.

But I think I saw this before I ever used any drugs.

dude i'v seen that static stuff in the day when it's bright, in fact all the time, it's kind of weird but it kind of grows on ya. i look at something and at first it is static "stuff" then it fades into the object but with faint static traces remaining inbetween me and whatever i'm looking at. its always been with me and now you know my world, but only in the dark. imagine it everywere and not just unnoticeable but distracting, i just call it ADD. it's probably not. But hey it's all fun. and usually it looks like it does weird stuff like interact, i actually just put my hands over my eyes to see if i could describe it beter in the dark and i saw a purple stage and out of my left field of vision i saw a face like the one on the front of the wall, the movie. that face trying to eat my left eye... Fucking weird.
enjoy the satic.

This is an interesting topic. I can only recall always seeing those neon glows when I close my eyes. Like an outline of whatever light I was seeing before. It just sits there on my retinas blazing. But that was before and after psychedelics.

I have also had flashback type experiences with static in my vision during the day. Like dude said, it starts out as static and then as you focus on it it just faids into whatever you're really looking at. Once it was my cars driver side window while I was driving, and then again once on the floor where I was walking.

LOL, i'm not sure i want to see alot of this community's porn. Interesting you mention that though, i haven't been able to see pitch black in some time. Although i'm not sure that's a bad thing.. being able to play with colors can really pass the time when you're bored.

Pitch-black while sober is just that: pitch black. Pitch b lack while tripping is an entertaining kaleidoscope of geometric patterns.

I don't think i've ever seen pitch black before. Always static and color blobs, as has been mentioned.

To elaborate on the blobs a little though, i can kind of feel them 'swimming' or drifting around when my eyes change their focus, while closed.

Of course, your eyes are older than they have ever been.  Eventually, you'll see "floaters" when you look at blank sky.  The eyes are the first thing to go.  You had better enjoy today. 

I remember rubbing my eyes at bedtime when I was a little kid and seeing patterns of light.  I'll bet that was probably from messing with the blood to the little nerves in your eye.  I don't recall seeing static when I was that young, though I do see it now.  But like I said, my eyes are older now than they have ever been. 

So, I don't know, really.  I haven't not done drugs in my life since forever for quite a while now, so I can't tell anymore. :wink:

Maybe we need to do some experiments on a few sets of twins.

Most people, with or without the use of drugs, will see some sort of visual static/snow. A large part of it comes from the rapid activation of capillaries in our eyes.

Before taking drugs, it's not that people didn't see this, but they didn't notice it (I am over-generalizing by saying this, but: Personally I feel that it's because drugs, especially "psychedelics", can cause the user to think about perception--their own perception--more than may occur from an otherwise drug-less life).

I've noticed something kind of like this recently. You know the effect you get when looking at something bright, like the sun or a picture flash... that sort of shadow-like afterimage that stays in your focal point for a bit. Well, it seems that whenever I change focus quickly and it's to something either brighter or darker than before, I get that effect. Except it only lasts for about a second and takes up more of my vision, kind of like a subtle shadow-flash sort of thing.

Anyways, now i'm wondering if psychedelics have something to do with this, since i've only really started tripping more recently. Three LSD trips and some Salvia is pretty much it though, so i'm not so sure about that... although it might have had some effect. Pretty interesting either way though.

And as far as darkness goes, the only time I recall not seeing stuff that wasn't completely black or some shade of that was when I was on drugs, so that doesn't count I guess. But it seems that there's almost always some light around here, so even with my eyes closed I might not get complete darkness.

Yep, that's exactly what i'm talking about... cool picture too, forgot about that one. In fact, i'm getting that effect pretty bad right now because it's extremely bright outside with all this snow. Can be fun but mostly just distracting.

i see colors in pitch blackness after using psychedelics. funny huh? good to hear it is common.


by the way...
i wonder how much data this site has collected on psychedelic drug users over the years? it is a very good study of us as a population. i hope someone is writing a report on it with good reviews of us haha.

It depends on the substance. On LSD I'll see outlines of weird geometric shapes and they'll tend to float around and change shape.

On Mescaline it's weird. I'll always see people walking around, or animals.

It's always crazy regardless

When I was a kid, I used to close my eyes and watch the patterns every night. I would see all kinds of complex and colorful machines made out of gears and sprockets.
Its only after tripping that I started to do that again.

Hmm... How was the paint chip situation around your house?



Just kidding. But, would this be after running, or expending energy (endorphins), or what do you think was the reason for the visuals?

I have never seen just pitch black. As far as I can remember, even being in a crib, I have always seen those undefinable visuals in the darkness. This is greatly enhanced for me by prolonged pupil dilation, for instance, once the night after I took a lot of triple C my pupils were really dilated and the visuals were much more vibrant and noticeable. Generally, though, I don't think they have increased since I began using psychedelics.

This is a pretty interesting topic.
As far as I can remember, crazy patterns only came from rubbing my eyes.

If kids today are seeing fractals, I'd think about checking the city water.

Does fluoride have some barely noticeable effects that nobody bothered mentioning because they were so slight and took so long to present themselves?

I wonder what kind of creatures we will be after 200 years of hormonal milk, chemical water, cloned meat, and genetically modified vegetables. How much garbage can we take?
