Here's 3 quick drawings I made (processed in photoshop) from the full moon SHE last friday, with little descriptions/trip reports.
Exhibit #1 (The folding scales)
I loaded the Machine with 20mg spice and proceeded to light it up. It wasn't working as good as before because I was trying out a new kind of mesh as the plug. But I did the best I could and kept taking hits. Then I started to feel weird, and not in a good way, so I put it on the side and closed my eyes.
I immediately got the feeling that this was "wrong" somehow and slowly some kind of scales formed all around me. The scales came in waves, folding into existence out of nowhere, and there was a central point where I was being pulled into. Each scale had a scary looking eye, and they were all observing me with a very alien kind of coldness. There was a very serious mood all around, like this is it, we are here now, no more games. I felt like I had lost every bit of privacy as millions and millions of these scales were all watching me as I was mentally being stripped naked and pulled into their world.
Soon luckily the pull subsided and the scales slowly began disappearing but I still didn't feel good, and it felt like my lungs and my skin were on fire. I spent the next 20 minutes trying to calm down and get out of the serious atmosphere.
Exhibit #2 (Party island)
A bit later I felt better and decided to load another 20mg, and proceeded to hit it. This time it felt much better and when my hands started to look like something other than hands, I put on my blindfold and laid back.
This time the transition was very non-linear and confusing, and at some point I just kind of realized that I was looking down at this very colorful and morphing island in the middle of a sea of electricity, and there was a huge party going on in this island. Like I could hear all kinds of muffled carnival sounds and music coming from it. I wanted so badly to join them but I couldn't really do anything about it, just observe from where I was.
Then I tried to remember what the hell am I doing here and what kind of drugs I had taken. I had a vague idea that it had something to do with the word "dmt", but my brain and thought processing had become like a computer and every time I told it to fetch the meaning of "dmt" from the memory modules, every time it returned with the phrase "youtube meditation". I became really confused and surprised that all I was doing was "youtube meditating", and started to get angry at the fact that people hadn't told me about this before, because it seemed to be really awesome.
I don't remember much else after that but when I came to and realized what "dmt" really meant, it was kinda hard not to laugh at the silliness of it all.
Exhibit #3 (The attack of the vines)
This came as a complete surprise because the SHE was already over and I had just shut off my computer and was gonna go sleep. But I thought I would check if there was anything left on the Machine so I could get a little buzz or something.
So in a half-assed manner I just inhaled anything that came out of it, but then I noticed that the smoke looked actually a lot thicker than on the 2 previous times, and immediately after I noticed this there were incredibly bright yellow flashes on both sides of my vision. All I could think was "oh shit." and go lay on the bed quickly. As soon as I was on the bed, I became dissolved into it, like there was no difference between my body and the bed.
I could feel things were happening really fast and when I closed my eyes, within a second the blackness was ripped apart and some very fast and intricately moving vines came from the hole and started to wrap around me with unbelievable speed, completely overwhelming me. The plant was radiating with a certain personality that I'm not able to translate into words right now, but it wasn't aggressive or evil, it was just very excited and curious about me. Just like a giant might accidentally hurt a human when it picks them up, the vines accidentally made me feel like I was being strangled by a 100-foot python out of a horror movie.
I can't remember how long I was in this state, just feeling wrapped and being probed by the glowing branches coming out of the vines, but when it ended I felt relieved but also kind of missed it. The plant was very loving but our first meeting just happened to be very rushed because I hadn't been prepared for it at all. Hopefully our future meetings will be gentler.
That's all for now, had fun making these.
*edit* Added animated party island (might take a while to load fully)
