The Ganzfeld Effect 60 minutes

The Ganzfeld effect, or perceptual deprivation, is a phenomenon of perception caused by exposure to an unstructured, uniform stimulation field. The effect is the result of the brain amplifying neural noise in order to look for the missing visual signals. The noise is interpreted in the higher visual cortex, and gives rise to hallucinations.
It has been most studied with vision by staring at an undifferentiated and uniform field of colour. The visual effect is described as the loss of vision as the brain cuts off the unchanging signal from the eyes. The result is "seeing black",[citation needed] an apparent sense of blindness. A flickering ganzfeld causes geometrical patterns and colors to appear, and this is the working principle for mind machines and the Dreamachine. The ganzfeld effect can also elicit hallucinatory percepts in many people, in addition to an altered state of consciousness.
Ganzfeld induction in multiple senses is called multi-modal ganzfeld. This is usually done by wearing ganzfeld goggles in addition to headphones with a uniform stimulus.
A related effect is sensory deprivation, although in this case a stimulus is minimized rather than unstructured. Hallucinations that appear under prolonged sensory deprivation are similar to elementary percepts caused by luminous ganzfeld, and include transient sensations of light flashes or colours. Hallucinations caused by sensory deprivation can, like ganzfeld-induced hallucinations, turn into complex scenes.
William G. Braud with Charles Honorton were the first to modify the ganzfeld procedure for parapsychological use. The effect is a component of the Ganzfeld experiment, a technique used in the field of parapsychology.

5 min - i hear crickets
8 min - i hear people laughing and cheering (quietly)
Throughout thw whole thing ive been hearing banging and knocking stuff but I think that is my family, not 100% sure
11 min - it just sounds like a waterfall right now, and also women laughing very quietly
12 min - the sound is starting making me nervous, kinda on edge.
13 min - the sound is becoming deafening and annoying
14 min - my mom texted, im home alone. nobody is here and the banging noises that sounded very real arent. this is kidna scary
15 min this is making me feel very uneasy, im going to stop because i am certain someone is downstairs opening and closing drawers
holy shit it was so quiet when pausing, i hear a beeping noise, kind of like when you get hit by a flashbang in r6
I took of my headset and it is so peaceful

@@Ele_de_Lopezthe expirement doesn’t work with people who fall asleep to white noise. That might be why it has no effect on you

I cycled through being really sleepy and really scared. When I took off the eye covers, all colors were more saturated, my leds and the video's background was orange, then when i put the leds to white, they looked blue. This was cool, I only did 6 minutes though, ill come back in a little and see what happens after some more time.
