Subjects under <strong>the</strong> <strong>in</strong>fluence <strong>of</strong>tryptam<strong>in</strong>e halluc<strong>in</strong>ogens report sensory frame lag and slow-motionframes; frame delay or echo; frame flange or recursive loop<strong>in</strong>g; framestack<strong>in</strong>g or frame freez<strong>in</strong>g; frame rew<strong>in</strong>d and fast forward; droppedframes; split or bifurcat<strong>in</strong>g frames; frame skipp<strong>in</strong>g; and similar nonl<strong>in</strong>earframe effects. These are all examples <strong>of</strong> extreme erratichalluc<strong>in</strong>ation l<strong>in</strong>ked to multisensory frame destabilization.Figure 24. Examples <strong>of</strong> frame stack<strong>in</strong>g caused by video feedback. Framesstacked as few as 8 to 16 frames deep are isomorphic <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>f<strong>in</strong>ity, fractalrecursion, visual echo, and nonl<strong>in</strong>ear destabilization found <strong>in</strong> chaotic systemsand psychedelic halluc<strong>in</strong>ation.
