Welcome to the Nexus! I share your love for Tool and alex grey's art. It's almost personal once having seen DMT visuals and how they are connected to Alex's art. If you notice my avatar, the sole reason I chose it was during what I thought was a breakthrough at the time but was not, I saw this image. It was so beautiful and moving so fast and changing so many colors.

The thing that got me, is afterwards I realized i had seen it before. This image was my least favorite visually by Alex Grey UNTIL that DMT experience. Now its one of my favorites.

My last experience with DMT ( Almost boke through last night - DMT Experiences - Welcome to the DMT-Nexus ) included fairies that were much like the ones in pans labyrinth ( [MEDIA=youtube]_V12O9kwNLQ[/MEDIA] )

So my conclusion so far is this: Everything before the doorway into the hyperspace, before you breakthrough, is you still grounded here on this plane. So therefore I beleieve that experiences here can manifest in visuals. i can't say for past the doorway yet, for I have not crossed through. Although I have also seen things I know I have not seen before. It's hard to say from my small amount of experience so far.

Just my 2 cents!
