steady stream of audio-visuals
Have you heard it?
I'm not trying to be wordy, because if you have heard it you will probably know exactly what I am talking about. Any Ideas, theories, or other fun stuff?
What it is...
It's a sound that seems to emanate from the center of the brain, to the base of the skull. It is basically a steady stream of audio-visuals that can sometimes last as long as you make a note to somehow focus on them, or last as long as you are listening. Also, one may find themselves falling back into the sound no matter their interest in observing it.
....Intermingling nodes of audio information, twisting around each other and morphing into each other. It's often metallic sounding, but can become so textured and layered that it sounds like music composition. Music with much feedback, whistling, glass marimbas, and strings. Music that one might even call "alien classical music".
Some might describe it to sound like computers making love. Others may reach it at a depth where it sounds violent and incredibly loud, which depending on the situation could be almost scary. There also may be a degree to which you can mold the sound or use it in combination with your own creativity.
I'm one of the few people I know of who have heard this sound, which makes sense because I don't know a ton of people who take psychedelics. I started hearing it when I got really into acid; experimenting with it in the dark with a pipe of MJ at my side. It happens along side the typical audio-visuals that ping and pang off of external stimuli...Seems to be the same animal really.
I have much experience with the more classical psychedelics, and the drugs that bring it out the most for me are lsd and lsa. Ayahuasca sort of "unveils" this sound much like lsd, but mushrooms less so. I have not used mescaline at fully-tripping doses, but mescaline does this for sure....not as much as lsd or lsa on comparable doses, but more so than mushrooms.
Marijuana always brought me back to a head-space where I could hear some form of it mildly, and that drug may have always been a small part of it to begin with, as I always smoked pot when I would trip alone in a dark room.
I'm just really interested to hear about other people's experiences with it. I had to ask because they are basically audio-visuals of the highest order, not common to hear about, and on par with the most complex fractal imagery and mandalas one might see on a full dose of psychedelic.

I'm not sure if "tapestry" is the best word, but I have heard the "throbbing" sound which quickly grows into a tune, and then into an entire orchestra of alien music on a few of my 4-AcO-DMT trips. I generally know if I heard the sound, I'm in for a ride.
