Psychedelics are about set and setting. Tell people what they expect to see and they will see that.

    IIRC, this one in particular causes the exact same effect no matter the cultural background of the subject, even when the subject is going in blind to the exact effects.

    Yeah, uh, not so much. I've heard of plenty of mushroom and acid trips that I've never experienced. Would be nice though, I'd love to know what the color Purple sounds like.

    I think it hits people differently. I had a acid trip once where it was an out of body experience. I had like daredevil vision at a pink floyd tribute concert. I could see the entire venue from any perspective from where i was standing. Sounds crazy but that was my experience.
