nights. In this experiment I tried ingesting the Ludiomil some two hours into<br />
the LSD trip. <strong>The</strong> amount of dream activity subsequent to this experience<br />
was far less than my previous experience when I'd ingested the Ludiomil<br />
before taking the LSD.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Ludiomil took effect some 15 minutes after ingesting, and the change<br />
was quite apparent. It intensified the acid high and produced what I'll<br />
describe as a "platinum plated" acid trip. It was as though every perception<br />
and thought were coated with a silverish translucent light. I described this in<br />
the LSD chapter as a "thin invisible membrane between myself and<br />
anything my senses touched upon."<br />
<strong>The</strong> most spectacular part of this journey came later when I took a balloon<br />
of nitrous oxide. I have tried nitrous with virtually every <strong>psychedelic</strong> and<br />
every combination. I thought I knew the limits of the nitrous experience and<br />
was quite unprepared for the remarkable transformation that took place. I<br />
can only describe it as a totally hilarious, melting through the bottom of the<br />
universe as it all came swirling down into me. <strong>The</strong> "melting" sensation of<br />
this experience was most distinct from the common nitrous high.<br />
In my third experiment with this combination I took the Ludiomil five hours<br />
prior to the LSD. This produced significantly more dream activity during<br />
subsequent nights than when I'd ingested the Ludiomil after the LSD. This<br />
trip also allowed me to take a closer look at the "membrane" between my<br />
mind and what I perceived. On this occasion I saw the membrane as a<br />
spongy, or even spring-loaded barrier, between my mind and the world. It<br />
seems as though Ludiomil functions by creating a time-delay buffer zone<br />
which prevents rapid responses and changes in the mind.<br />
During this experience I injected a small dose of Ketamine, 45 mg. I found<br />
it produced a quite unique Ketamine experience in which I had more<br />
freedom to shift between an individual and an infinite perspective than ever<br />
before.<br />
LSD + Ketamine - This experience took place while I was backpacking in<br />
Death Valley Using <strong>psychedelic</strong>s in natural environments, and in solitude,<br />
tends to produce intense experiences. However, taking <strong>psychedelic</strong>s in the<br />
wilderness can be dangerous for someone who is not experienced with both<br />
<strong>psychedelic</strong> use and in surviving harsh terrain. Psychedelics can easily<br />
disrupt several basic survival instincts, such as sense of direction and sense<br />
of time. <strong>The</strong> unique portion of this experience came during the LSD trip. I<br />
had ingested some 350 mcg., an amount which for me normally produces<br />
only peripheral visual phenomenon.<br />
As I hiked through the mountains of Death Valley there were some
