A near-death experience inspired a computational molecular physicist to create a VR experience that can help viewers reach self-transendence.
David Glowacki, an artist and computational molecular physicist who suffered a life-changing near death experience, has reportedly developed a virtual reality experience called Isness-D that works just as well as LSD or psilocybin at bringing users to self-transcendence., Glowacki has been working to capture self-transcendence — which, psychologically speaking, involves overcoming the perceived limits of the self — since suffering a near-death experience roughly fifteen years ago.
But as he explained further, while looking at that light, he didn't feel scared— he just felt peace. Now, years after his miraculous survival, he wants to bring a similar experience of the light and the peace — not the almost dying bit — to others.back in May, Isness-D might be doing just that. The results were striking: the Isness-D participants recorded self-transcendent experiences indistinguishable from what 20 milligrams of psilocybin or 200 micrograms of LSD might induce.
