Psychedelic Information Theory
Proceedings of the Annual Conference of CAIS / Actes du congrès annuel de l ACSI February 7, 2025 Jenna Hartel, James L. Kent Cydelic, Tim Gorichanaz et al.
This panel systematically examines information phenomena during altered states of consciousness induced by psilocybin-containing mushrooms, drawing on the book Psychedelic Information Theory and situating the discussion within information behavior research. The session explores psychedelic information at four levels: personal, microsocial, macrosocial, and the meta-perspective of Information Science. The approach is explicit and balanced, aiming to leap beyond conventional notions of information.
