Hyperbolic Geometry as a Model of DMT Experiences

Qualia Research Institute · Lecture · YouTube title: The Hyperbolic Geometry of DMT Experiences (@Harvard Science of Psychedelics Club)
Why it's here

HN commenters point to it as an interesting lecture related to psychedelics, brain geometry and hyperbolic space, with a good intro to hyperbolic geometry.

What it covers

Andres Gomez Emilsson of the Qualia Research Institute presents a model of DMT experiences using hyperbolic geometry and dynamical systems theory. He describes how different intoxication levels correspond to changing curvature and information content of experience.
