Hey there!
🕑 Added 2020-12-30 21:26:51 +0000 UTCIt's been a long time since I've updated this Patreon page and I just really want to deeply thank all the people who have been donating their hard-earned income to me for all of these years. I am extremely grateful that you continued to support me despite my inactivity and it really does mean the absolute world to me!
I won't go into the precise details, but I have been through an incredibly turbulent and honestly extremely traumatic few years, in which I sort of dropped off of the face of the planet. However, I am finally in a place where I am recovering and doing so much better. So I really wanted to make this post to clarify the situation regarding my various online projects and their futures.
For the past couple of years, I have decided to go back to my roots and focus on what first drew me into this long-term project of mine. This initial draw was and always has been establishing the field of formalised hallucinogenic subjective effect documentation through the creation of a truly comprehensive Subjective Effect Index. An index that exists to serve as a comprehensive map of all potential experiences that can occur under the influence of any class of psychoactive compound, particularly hallucinogens.
In the past, this has been under the banner of DisregardEverythingISay.com and PsychonautWiki.org, but is now primarily showcased on EffectIndex.com, as I realised that MediaWiki was extremely limiting in terms of what I wanted to be capable of doing with the SEI. I am extremely excited about this project and it already has a large and very active community behind it that is filled with talented artists, replicators, web developers, people from a wide variety of backgrounds!
For a better idea of how these articles look, please see our featured effects below!!!!
Visual: Autonomous entity ⋅ Colour shifting ⋅ Drifting ⋅ Environmental patterning ⋅ External hallucination ⋅ Geometry ⋅ Internal hallucination ⋅ Symmetrical texture repetition ⋅ Tracers ⋅ Visual disconnection
Cognitive: Autonomous voice communication ⋅ Conceptual thinking ⋅ Delusion ⋅ Ego death ⋅ Memory suppression ⋅ Mindfulness ⋅ Personal bias suppression ⋅ Spirituality enhancement ⋅ Time distortion ⋅ Unity and interconnectedness
Miscellaneous: Auditory distortion ⋅ Auditory hallucination ⋅ Machinescapes ⋅ Physical euphoria ⋅ Scenarios and plots ⋅ Stimulation ⋅ Synaesthesia
I have huge plans for this website, from showcasing the SEI, to developing standardised techniques for documenting the subjective effects of specific substances in accordance with SEI terminology, to scraping statistical data from our ever-growing trip report database, to serving as a central community hub for visionary artists and replicators who share our goals.
I am also about to relaunch my YouTube channel and start that project entirely from scratch, which is something I have wanted to do for years but have not been in the right emotional place to do so. I will also be posting updates here as frequently as I can.
Again, thank you so much for your support. You guys are the absolute best.
