Thinking the Float Tank – Saturday, August 26, 2023 (Day 3)

The Epistemology, Mathematics, and Engineering of Mystical Bliss

Speaker Bio:

Coming soon!

Abstract:

This talk will go over three main interconnected topics. First, how do we radically improve psychedelic epistemology? Second, what have we found at QRI about the geometry and overall mathematical properties of DMT-like states of consciousness? And finally, Shulgin calls a ++++ an experience of transcendence that is qualitatively different from other psychedelic experiences… is there a “general formula” for catalyzing such deeply profound mystical states? I will argue that tying together QRI insights and phenomenological works we might in fact be close to figuring out how to reliably induce this experience.
