One claim meditators make is that long-term practice dials up sensory richness — ordinary things, like grass, a bird, anything and everything, appears just a bit richer & more wonderful. Presumably, the neural correlate would be a higher baseline of entropy? Can we test this?
Tonight — @shayla__love & I will moderate a convo between a historian, sociologist, & anthropologist discussing how their work weaves together on the social construction of psychedelic knowledge & medicine. Hosted at the cozy @psychassembly. Tickets: eventbrite.com/e/the-social-h…
erowid — but for ultrasound stimulation!
This series on psychedelic humanities was born from a desire to have intimate talks about other fields—not just psychiatry—that are interacting with psychedelics. If you're in New York, join us this Thursday for a sociological perspective! eventbrite.com/e/the-social-h…
Next in our series on the psychedelic humanities, we'll wade through the social construction of psychedelic medicine — from the Clusterbusters to limbic capitalism. April 25th w/ @shayla__love, @NicolasLanglitz, @joannakempner, & Nancy Campbell. eventbrite.com/e/the-social-h…
Hey NYC: I'd love to see you at the Psychedelic Assembly next Thurs, April 25th for a discussion about the social life of psychedelics with me, anthro @NicolasLanglitz, historian Nancy Campbell, & moderated by journalists @shayla__love & @OshanJarow. eventbrite.com/e/the-social-h…
feedback loops between theory & empirical testing are spiraling into such rich terrain — this paper runs simulations & finds that the 5-HT1a receptors — alongside the popular 2A — are important psychedelic mechanisms. Now, we can block the 1a receptor to test the theory (?)

Wrote about ineffability & new work in using math to describe consciousness. Maybe ineffability isn't a bug, but a feature that generalizes experience. “Ineffability, or information loss, is a fundamental feature of learning systems that generalize.” vox.com/future-perfect…
Absolutely amazing piece by @OshanJarow for @voxdotcom! vox.com/future-perfect…
trying to type "consciousness has a describability problem," keep getting auto-corrected to "consciousness has a desirability problem," and 1) fair enough, 2) eerily feels like a mechanistic intelligence (autocorrect) giving me shit for being infected by consciousness
all these years, I’ve been told the moon is made of cheese. But today clearly proves that, in fact, the sun is made of cheese. this is troubling, as it raises the prospect that the true eclipse is that of a vast celestial fromage engulfing the cosmos, one sphere at a time
good to be reminded of the basics, like we live on a planet

@OshanJarow i hadn't seen that paper, look forward to reading. what i meant is that we don't know enough about the entropy measure(s) and how it relates to cognition. LZc with EEG might covary with "sensory richness," e.g. goes up when people watch a movie or take psychedelics. but there's
@OshanJarow I found this paper could be related to the question pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32032666/ with different types of meditative states.
1. Quit trying to revolutionize your life via listicles. Revolutions are rarely sustainable. Look into what’s wanting a revolution and be kind to that. That’s the whole list. 9/9
@OshanJarow Would think you’d need longitudinal data. Not sure whether a between-subjects comparison would be interpretable. Even within-subject if you saw a difference pre vs. post, would be hard to know whether a change in entropy is related to sensory richness. Unless you could show…
@OshanJarow i think it was already shown with psychedelics that they increase connectivity / entropy of the brain activations. not sure if it has also been shown for meditation, but it's the same thing, just long term
Spent the last couple of days hanging out with progressive folks who are trying to think about what "post-neoliberal" economic policy means, and I have to say that I am quite encouraged by what I saw.
