Taking Woodstock (2009)
The seemingly bland or tacky artwork begins to shift, only subtly at first.
A certain level of apprehension sets in, and a soothing voice is called for to calm down.
More visual tricks; edges and straight lines begin to wiggle, physical sensation seems extra somehow, certain textures or patterns ‘pop out’ like a pop-up book, and it’s as if someone turned the saturation and brightness up everywhere.
Cultural rules begin to dissolve, “just don’t be an asshole” is the permeating vibe.
By the time he’s out the van, he’s in new clothes, and still hallucinating. The kids burning their IDs (selective service cards? draft notices?) aren’t given a second glance.
And then the hills and the crowd start to undulate like giant waves, and a nebula grows out of the stage. (Seeing wholesale fabricated hallucinations like this is rare. Typically it’s an existing visual that is severely distorted to the point that describing it results in scenes like this one.)
Overall, not a bad representation. Kinda lacking in fractals, but not bad.
It’s hard to convey what happens psychologically, and the way time distorts. As David Cross once said, “Two things go right out the window when one is tripping: time and money.” Both lose their meaning.
I agree with other comments, you had something other than LSD, not sure what.
Also, The Rum Diary (2011) has a decent tripping scene, toward the end IIRC.
