- Josie Kins, a former psychonaut turned researcher, has personally tried over 200 psychedelic compounds but no longer uses them.
- She has compiled a list of 233 effects experienced under psychedelics, called the Subjective Effect Index.
- Kins is working with Mindstate Design Labs to refine and expand the classification system, focusing on cognitive and emotional effects.
- The visual effects are already well-documented, with 52 listed, including diffraction, increased pareidolia, and machinescapes.
- Other notable effects include object activation, scenery slicing, texture liquidation, and unspeakable horrors.
- A unique effect is the visual exposure to the inner mechanics of consciousness, described as seeing representations of underlying neurological processes.
