[As Dr Chris Timmerman's section of the presentation contains some unpublished details of his research, he has asked for his talk not to be shared for the time being.]

The DMT breakthrough experience is often regarded as a portal into another dimension of perceived reality, a "hyperspace" teeming with fantastical entities and animated by untethered synesthesia. Famed psychonaut Terence McKenna spoke of "machine elves" playing "jeweled self-dribbling basketballs" made out of "syntax-driving light," communicating in an entirely different medium that is unbounded by the constraints of ordinary language. DMT hyperspace is not only wildly complex, but is also described as "more real than real," a sacramental glimpse into the intrinsic nature of all things.

Recently, pioneering neuroscientists have developed new methods for extending the DMT experience, known as DMTx. With more time in the DMT hyperspace, users will be able to chart out a more detailed map of the DMT breakthrough experience. Indeed, much like the explorers and astronauts of yesterday mapped out physical space, the psychonauts of today are using DMTx and other cutting-edge tools to map out the DMT space.

This event will be a moderated panel with three of the key figures who helped to create and deploy DMTx in research facilities. Dr Andrew Gallimore is the author of "Reality Switch Technologies: Psychedelics as Tools for the Discovery and Exploration of New Worlds." He helped develop DMTx with Rick Strassman in 2015. His current interests focus on DMT and other psychedelic molecules as tool for gating access to otherwise inaccessible subjective worlds, their neuroscientific underpinning, and their possible ontological and metaphysical implications. Dr Chris Timmermann is a postdoc at the Centre for Psychedelic Research in Imperial College London, where he has conducted trials of DMTx along with other research about the effects of DMT on the brain. Finally, Daniel McQueen is the executive director and co-founder of the Center for Medicinal Mindfulness, which recently selected a DMTx psychonaut cohort that has already undergone three training retreats.
