Long-running fractal zooms are really good for this purpose, e.g.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8cgp2WNNKmQ

#42I've heard this music somewhere before.... Telefon Tel Aviv I think? why isn't it credited?
Looks to be a demo of the repo, the visualisation along with “Telefon Tel Aviv” isn’t the product - in that light it probably isn’t credited due to a minor oversight

This project speaks to me, thank you thank you thank you!

#44I think AI tools like Stable Diffusion have a big potential. Something along the lines of what Nexxus 604 is doing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6m3OvB819s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6s_Dtl1U9wU
couldn't agree more :)
he is not alone :)

such an amazing track though, I use this to test every new speaker / headphones I've had for like 20 years running.

#46this gave me an overwhelming sense of melancholy
The music is Telefon Tel Aviv , first track from their first album, Fahrenheit Fair Enough. Absolute masterpiece of electronic music.

That is freaking awesome. Why isn't it better known?

#48I recall experiencing an incredibly fast hallucination with my eyes closed—like tiny dots moving at an extreme speed.
Faster than anything I had ever seen, almost like an intense vibration, beyond the refresh rate of the eye. It was both intimidating and exhilarating.
Perhaps screens are unable to replicate this type of hallucination.
The animations on this website are impressive. However, in my experience, closed-eye visuals tend to have a central focal point, along with folding or tunnel-like movements and recurring patterns.
I feel deeply grateful for having had some psychedelic experiences, even though hallucinations are the least interesting aspect of them. For me, they acted as a magnifying glass for my overall state of being—allowing me to step outside myself and honestly assess how I feel. They also foster a deeper appreciation for nature.
It would be fascinating to have this discussion within this community. These substances are often demonized due to a lack of understanding, yet they can have a profound impact. For instance, after taking a small dose of LSD, I completely lost interest in alcohol. In the past six months, I’ve only had three nights of drinking, lost a significant amount of weight, and feel fantastic.

Like any mind-altering substance, I would suggest caution. Bad decisions are made and dangerous thoughts are had. Relationships can end, lives can be ruined, and people can die. It’s not a hallucinagen-specific problem, but here be dragons.

#50Earlier quoted context omitted.
Eh a lot of that ‘deep dreamy’ stuff ends up looking so same-same - I don’t need to look at endless various of ‘dog faces and insect body parts and glittering gemstones’ you know? I want to see actual weird stuff, bizarre genometry, a sense of space that’s mind-bending. Maximalism is not the be all end all of trippy visuals.
Check this one out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGuBpKqtHdY And this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dd3ZQOzyquo&t=385s The AI generated ones are getting really good nowadays.
Deforum stuff is cool, but also a bit of a flash in the pan because of the disconnected nature of the generated frames.
Pure video generation is getting better, but like all generative AI it lacks imagination and cannot really create new things, making it less qualified for truly mindblowing psychedelic visuals in its current state.
