Psychedelics & Creativity
Creativity is the ability to generate novel, meaningful ideas, shift perspective, and access new modes of expression. Emerging research discussed in outlets such as Psychology Today suggests psychedelic experiences may be associated with increased cognitive flexibility and a loosening of habitual thought patterns. By temporarily shifting how large-scale brain networks communicate, these states are often described as opening pathways to unconventional and original forms of creative insight.
Artists and visionaries such as Aldous Huxley, Allen Ginsberg, The Beatles, and Alex Grey have long explored altered states as part of their creative lives.
This interactive symposium explores how psychedelic experiences have influenced creativity in art, innovation, and everyday life.
In this session, you’ll explore:
How creatives describe integrating altered states into their creative practice
Frameworks for designing intentional, reflective creative experiences
Ways to access insight, presence, and perspective in everyday creative work
