an artist's description of different hallucinatory states

[jrtom]

ursulav describes the differences among a few different types of (visual) hallucination:

LSD ranges from the common distortion, maybe a little streakiness, to intense solarizing and glow and cheapass rendering effects to send an artist screaming into the night, trailing lens flares.

Reminds me, somewhat, of my friend Jeff's stories of experiences with stoners in his high school. :)

I'm now curious about Jeff's stories.

I'd tell you mine, but this isn't a locked post and my roomate, who was in a position to know these things claimed my reaction was atypical. I suspect this too was an SID thing.

Not much to tell; these are more Jeff's {a,be}mused reactions to and descriptions of stoners in his school, rather than actual reports of his own drug-induced hallucinations (as far as I know, Jeff has never tried any such).
