| | [AI summary] The text describes three computational simulations designed to model cessation experiences, which are states of reduced phenomenological content. These simulations are based on the concepts of recursive mappings between sensory fields, coupled oscillators, and gestalt detection. The first simulation, the Gestalt Detector, explores how different perspectives interact with our ability to detect patterns in the environment. The second, Standing Wave Pattern Across Multiple Fields, investigates how waves in different fields can be synchronized by using either 3D or 2D distance functions. The third, Fractal Recursive Coherence, models how recursive projections can lead to a state of zero phenomenality by collapsing all projections into a single point...

| | [AI summary] The text discusses Steven Lehar's harmonic resonance theory and its connection to brain function, particularly in relation to visual perception and neural computation. Lehar's theory suggests that the brain operates through resonant modes rather than individual neurons, and this idea is supported by connectome-specific harmonic wave theory, which links the brain's functional networks to its anatomical structure. The text also explores the implications of these theories, including potential applications in neuroscience and the study of consciousness, such as the possibility of directly manipulating brain harmonics to induce specific states of consciousness.

| | Excerpt from The Grand Illusion: A Psychonautical Odyssey Into the Depths of Human Experience by the cognitive scientistSteven Lehar(2010; pages 23-40). Trip to Europe I had two or three such experiences on my new batch of LSD, taking perhaps 2 or 3 "hits" (tabs) each time (presumed to be about [100] micrograms, or "mikes" per...
