Psychedelics cause visual tracers. THC causes short term memory tracers. MDMA causes emotional tracers. Dissociatives cause spatial tracers. It's all tracers, man.* --+++-- *To a first approximation. And also it's not all tracers. There are really non-trivial things besides tracers. But tracers are an obvious low hanging fruit first step to characterize these states.

@adic_9 Yes! Exactly!! It allows the co-existence of thought forms that usually fade too quickly the share the same experience. This is computationally non-trivial.

@algekalipso I wonder if "time-loops" are also related to tracers? Probably the weirdest and scariest thing I've ever experienced. A particular scene repeated over and over again. But my mind was pretty clear, somehow separated from the looping.
