Alien Information Theory

From the public record

Proposed by: Andrew Gallimore

The brain is an information processing system that normally renders the consensus world. DMT reliably switches it to render a different, equally structured world.

Andrew Gallimore argues that DMT is best understood as a technology that alters which world the brain builds, and that the alternate world has stable informational properties worth mapping. Notably, Gallimore has also published a detailed skeptical analysis of the laser protocol specifically, which appears separately on this board. Holding both positions at once is a useful model of how this field should work: big frameworks and sharp criticism from the same mind.
