      Take psychedelics, why not, go for it.
      Put lasers near your eyes, absolutely.
      But never, EVER, take psychedelics
      and ALWAYS put salt in your eyes!

      laser light has this way of enhancing interference patterns as it spreads out, this is why it has weird looking patterns when projected in a wide angle.

      This is also probably what the person in this post was seeing and tripping on, staring directly into a laser pointer while high as balls.

        It appears to be on some sort of apparatus that can make it draw a line, I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some gimmick that makes it actually draw cryptic letters or something too

        This is true. Laser Doppler Vibrometry and Atomic Force Microscopy are two legitimate examples of using lasers near your eyes while sober.

          Im working my way up intensity to build an immunity. I’m all the way to class IV indirect. Hoping to achieve direct by the next eclipse so I don’t need my Raybans.
