Yes, but… it’s really hard to stay focused. Everything is kinda awesome to look at, so I have forgotten about the stars and zoned on my surroundings or my hand or a hundred other things. I like tripping in the woods or at the beach best personally.
Novelty is a common effect that people don’t talk about much.
Essentially it makes everything seem new and novel.
What’s interesting is, in the brain there is a specific spike in electrical activity (called event related potential, or ERP) that happens when you look at something new and unexpected. Some call it the novelty indicator. Designated P3a.
You can measure it with eeg equipment (electrodes on the scalp).
I’d be really interested to see if that ERP is happening more on LSD. It might shed more light on the mechanisms of the drug. If it doesn’t happen, then it would challenge the theory of what the P3a is.
I personally think LSD has a lot of potential to be used to research perception processing in the brain.
Too bad it’s basically impossible to get approval to use it for that reason.
So take lsd and go star gazing.

hell yeah
I believe the phrase is taking an lsd
