Autonomous Entities and Visible Language
From the public record
Proposed by: Terence McKenna
The DMT space is inhabited by intelligences that present self-transforming visual objects which behave like language. In this reading the symbols are not code but communication.
Terence McKenna described machine elves offering objects that were simultaneously visual and linguistic, and argued the state points to a genuinely other order of mind. Applied to the laser phenomenon, this reading treats recurring glyphs as vocabulary from a sender rather than structure from a substrate. It predicts symbols should behave socially, responding to attention and intention, which observers sometimes report and skeptics attribute to projection.
