does anyone have any experience or know of anywhere where more research could be done about the chemical DiPT, a tryptamine from TIHKAL known to specifically cause sound distortion and aural hallucinations? It seems very interesting that there would be a psychedellic with such specific an affect and I would like to study DiPT more...
I've done DiPT probably around 10 times or so - yes it is extremely extremely weird. It is not simple pitch lowering (though that is the primary effect), the way it alters every sound in the same way is undescribable - sounds like air whooshing through a small tube or metallic bells while at the same time it is very very low. There is not much psychological effects or trip from it other than the whole time concentrating on how fucked up sound is - it gets kinda boring if you do it alot but I'd say its definitely worth a couple tries.
Sounds like it'd be good to combine with a more visual tryptamine or even a phenethylamine. Maybe even just getting stoned while on DiPT would be pretty worthwhile, from the sound of it.
note that it RUINS music. It's not "fun" in my experience. it's cool to hear the world all fucked up but honestly it gets old like 1 hour into it, then you just realize you're sitting around and can't even talk to someone on the phone or listen to good tunes lol. it just sounds like an acoustic salad dressed with Xerxes' voice from 300. definitely worth trying once though! I never got any psychedelic effects other than sound distortion, but I imagine that is dosage related. would be nice to mix with a more complete psychedelic perhaps, but could get really confusing and CRAZY to have that kind of hearing distortion on top of like, an LSD trip or something.
take the plunge the auditory effects are nothing to fear - in fact it's very euphoric just due to the fact that sound is perceived in a way never imaginable.
man I want to try this stuff. Never noticed sound distortions on psychedelics and i think it would be super interesting. Has anyone tried 4-Ho-DiPT? I'm thinking about ordering some. Not sure what the differences are to plain "DiPT" whatever that is. I've heard of 4-AcO-DiPT too. pretty sure the effects are similar, and they all have sound distortions but I dont know much
If you're THAT scared, PM me Sounds like fun combined with weed, assuming you don't plan to do much interacting with the outside world.
I bought some 'e' while vacationing in Spain about five years ago in a nightclub on my birthday. I had heard there was a fairly open drug scene there, and actually bought a gram of excellent blow from the first random guys I approached with my lame Spanish at a gas station earlier in the day. I would been a bit freaked had I not remembered reading about this stuff in TiHKAL. As someone mentioned, I found it neither euphoric nor euphonic, and really just about this flangy, distorted auditory weirdness, like all sound is being run through a processor of some sort. It is a recognizable effect, and I have heard snatches of things that remind me of it since, but didn't note them at the time (tho I mean to . Not a dance drug, as music is sort of mashed together. I remember some visual perspective distortion, but I was pretty drunk as well. It wasn't scary, nor was it particularly fun. Just weird. Once was enough, and I would have rather had the MDMA I thought I was buying on that occasion.
why? i'll be the first to admit, i get "scared" to try new substances, but you never seemed to be like that. do you think the hearing change might seem permanent while you're tripping?
that's something that scares me a alittle bit. It alwyas seems so hard to imagine believeing something so craz`y so firmly during a trip but i've been scared to death thinking "I wonder if my arms will have faces in them forever?" and whatnot...
