A Deep-Dream Virtual Reality Platform for Studying Altered Perceptual Phenomenology - Scientific Reports
A novel tool called the Hallucination Machine combines deep convolutional neural networks and panoramic VR to simulate visual hallucinatory experiences, mimicking the phenomenology of psychedelics without altering neurophysiology. Experiments show it induces similar visual effects but does not produce the temporal distortions typically associated with altered states.

A predictive coding approach to psychedelic virtual-induced hallucinations and creative cognition in aging
Recent research explores the potential of psychedelics in enhancing cognitive flexibility and creativity, particularly through Virtual Reality (VR) simulations. This approach may help counteract cognitive decline in aging, as it optimizes the balance between expectations and sensory information, thereby supporting creative cognition and maintaining cognitive functions.
