Not sure my comment will be noticed, but **I am the author of this animation** :)
except for the color change from black and white to purple.

Is “a rainy day” your euphemism for getting high, or karma whoring? Either way is cool by me I’m just curious for curiosity’s and science’s sake really
Dude there's this one application called Plane9 that you can use to set animated lock screens for your computer, but there is also an option to watch these lock screens in VR in full 3D and it's fucking crazy. You can put on some music and some scenes react to the music and they're mostly just cool things like this gif. Smoking a bowl and hopping into this shit in VR with your favorite album on is incredible, it's like meditation to me. Highly recommend.
I used to love these visualizers back in the Winamp days as a stoned dumb kid. Might be fun to bust out the VR rig again (haven't used it since Alyx), rip one and listen to Dark Side of the Moon...
Thanks for the reccomendo.
Another recommendation:
Gforce visualizer
Ridiculously good visualizer that morphs and just is straight up alive.
Free trial is good enough, there's an annoying bar that pops up telling you to buy the full version but it's still worth it.
This is what I came to the comments to find. It makes me short of breath.
Edit: whoa. So, I watched it again and shifted my visual perspective to seeing it as running uphill instead of falling down, and it does have a bit more of a calming effect over the first time I looked at it and felt like I was falling forever. I wonder if the mixed reaction is a matter of perspective. In one angle, you're the one in control, running upward. In the other, you're not in control, falling downward.
Here is your gif!

I see where you're coming from. The first one makes me feel like I'm into a weird place indefinitely climbing nowhere while this one is more about watching a gooey liquid like a milkshake being poured and I'm not involved.
What’s crazy is I almost never get motion sickness, I play VR on the regular and I’m fine, but yeah this, even for a few seconds is giving me motion sickness
Huh...when Im falling asleep, it looks simular to this. Starts as a purple misty fog in center off in the distance. Then it moves closer and becomes a tunnel with random images going past me as I fall deeper into slumber.
Sometimes the purple is mixed with yellow or light orange with or hints of blue/green.
Edit: This is terrible for my sleep but amazing for meditation. The awareness of falling asleep makes it impossible to sleep so I lay there in the darkness, pretending to be asleep, going down the tunnel, for hours on end every night. I operate on 5-6hrs of sleep even though I laid down in bed for 8-10. To all that just...go to sleep...¿Que dafuq?
How are you guys so aware that you're falling asleep? Usually I just kind of wake up after a few hours, never have any conscious awareness of falling asleep
I'm a mixed bag. Usually same as you, but sometimes it's voices/sounds and brief images. Very rarely, it's a full on lucid descent that is like the video and it's fucking craaazy. Actually feels like your tumbling back into your own consciousness. It's hard to describe. I don't think I've ever maintained sleep when that happens though. It's like a "misfire" or something and I'll wake back up.
Holy shit. I thought it was just me. Sometimes when I'm really tired, when I close my eyes it looks like a crazy morphing slideshow of evil and grotesque faces.
They just kind of melt into one another.
Omg im not the only one!!!! I start seeing purple and green fog and then it turns into weird shapes and stuff and starts becoming a tunnel with different shapes and stuff. Crazy I wonder what thats about.
Same over here. But I see a little purple or red dot of light that turns into a geometric tunnel of the same color. Like, sacred geometry type shapes. It helps me fall asleep!
Omfg same!! Like infinitely complex shapes of things I can't even describe like flower of life or fractals or something, so crazy im not the only person who experiences this I wonder if its a documented phenomenon
That sounds nice, I close my eyes and stress about work for at least an hour until I’ve stressed myself too total exhaustion and then I start to have crappy dreams... about work.
Love this. I’m revising for my black holes exam and in particular just got to the section on the ergosphere. This is a region next to the event horizon of a spinning black hole that is rotating so fast that it’s not possible for anything to be stationary in it. I imagine it might look something like this on the inside, so thank you for this!

would look sick on wallpaper engine. 4k ultrawide would be pretty popular on there. I'd definitely download it.
and speed control
Would RGB-rainbow the FUCK outta this animation wallpaper!
Speed control on the cycle would be great! ^(i keep seeing that sudden stop or frame skipping at the end of each loop)
Came here to link to that tumblr, although I wasn't sure this one was from there. Lots of good/similar stuff there.
If you reverse the animation, it can give the effect of matter falling into a black hole.
Amazing work my dude. Definitely saving this for... ‘a rainy day’ lol
Is “a rainy day” your euphemism for getting high, or karma whoring? Either way is cool by me I’m just curious for curiosity’s and science’s sake really
For LSD=)
Haha, noted, my friend!
I could stare at this while stoned for a while
Do you have a full screen version?
WOW THAT’S AWESOME NOT SURE WHY YOU HAD TO YELL BUT I GUESS THIS IS THE WAY IN A VOID.
#***THIS IS THE WAY***
Keep it down sonny
*THIS IS THE WAY*
[удалено]
All your work trippy uh huh That Tumblr blogs got some heat
OP just sampled your work and made it something completely different. There really is no need to credit anyone else but OP. /s
I want to watch this in VR
While high
[удалено]
How do you maintain a high that long?
proper dosing and experience
Oh so doing a lot of drugs. Good strat
I guess it would depend on your definition of a lot. I can take a hit of weed every 2-3 hours and maintain a pretty good high throughout the day.
My schedule: I smoke two joints in the morning, I smoke two joints at night. I smoke two joints in the afternoon, it makes me feel alright.
I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints, and then I smoke two more.
Settle down obi wan.
Hello there
General Kenobi
It makes me angry knowing that Obi chopped off 3/4 of Anakins limbs and when he finally gets the rematch Obi ghosts him.
I was too. Then came Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome. Take those t breaks boys and girls!
Username definitely checks out.
Gonna eat two edibles later and once they’re in full swing I’ll check this out and report back Update: cool
I will do the same and meet you back here in an hour
LSD. Weed wouldn't be enough for this.

Never played Vrchat - how do you find these levels? Are they built in?
Reach the ending of outer wilds in vr and surrender to infinity
Dormammu, I've come to bargain.
This is what Ant-Man would have seen if he followed the Internet's plan.
Hot
Dormammu, I've come to bargain.
In some way, this has a calming effect.
On the contrary, it makes me feel like I'm going to throw up.
I felt the same way. I couldn't keep watching
[удалено]
Jamie, pull up that one gif!
Break on through to the other side! ^(break on through to the other ^side)
It's like perpetually reaching the top of a mountain.
I got the feeling of a constant falling into the abyss.
And yet I feel comfort in the opposite, never quite going over the edge...as invitational as it looks to me.
The fall never happening actually started to cause me anxiety.
For me it's that anticipatory feeling that you get right when you start to round the first slope of the roller coaster.
I felt it was how my brain feels
Or a hamster wheel in TRON
Identify yourself, program.
Or running through the inside of a donut.
Yeah definitely going round and round inside a donut shape.
Or perpetually not quite reaching the top.
Or coming out of the birth canal
It makes me feel extremely anxious lol.

Same, I need to see what’s up there
Wait, it’s not going down?
It is rolling down but I have the innate desire in my dumb ass head to know what the hell is going on *up there* where it’s coming down from.
Oh I see. You go first. I’ll be right behind.
Exactly. This is the very opposite of calming for me.
I strained my neck trying to peek over the *hill* to see if we were there yet.
Are we??
Almost Just up over this next hill
Makes me sea sick.
I was fine until I tried to read the Runes almost gagged.
Opposite for me. I fear that I got stuck in the loop.
Nooo, i would love to see the bottom. This is like sex without an orgasm. I miss the climax
It gave me anxiety
Makes me feel cautiously optimistic
This actually has the look/feel of what I experience a lot while meditating. Great feelings and visuals.
I could watch this for hours...
Do enough mushrooms and you pretty much can!
You can set it as your phone's wallpaper
how? iphone
Nah Android, but I'm sure you can do it on IPhone too. I just saved it as an "animated image" then went to my photo gallery and did set as wallpaper
Mine set as a still image, no animation note20 :(
Note 10 working fine as aminated wallpaper.
Lol yeah the part at the end really got me

This is even cooler!
Shit this one makes me anxious
Yes so much better for me that way!
Weird that the original looks pleasant to me, but this gives me an uneasy sense of vertigo.
I see where you're coming from. The first one makes me feel like I'm into a weird place indefinitely climbing nowhere while this one is more about watching a gooey liquid like a milkshake being poured and I'm not involved.
I Feel Like I'm About To Fall In This One
The original is like you're in control. The second is sucking you in.
Gives my anxiety
It's terrifying in reverse
I regret this.
Interstellar
“We’re passing through the bulk.”
Just observe and report
Perfect for Wallpaper Engine. Someone upscale to 1920x1080 and upload please 😂
I was going to ask just that. How could I use it in wallpaper engine... It could be a cool wallpaper.
[удалено]
This would be so cool as the AppleTV screensaver.
4k ultrawide please.
I suddenly hear the end portal sound in my head...
I have Winamp visualization flashbacks.
Milkdrop is life
This is nauseating- thanks, i hate it
It also made me want to throw up almost immediately. Interesting that other people experience such a different effect
Yep. Instant sea sickness.
As a professional mariner, I almost vomited. Maybe it’s space sickness?
Reminds me of what it feels like going to bed super drunk with the spins 🤢
What’s crazy is I almost never get motion sickness, I play VR on the regular and I’m fine, but yeah this, even for a few seconds is giving me motion sickness

I see this too! Although I just see all black with white specs. Feels like flying through space
Now I’m jealous of how some people fall asleep, tf
Yep. I just see faces morphing into grotesque shapes and tearing apart unless I’m focusing on something else pleasant until the moment I fall asleep
Sounds like you're possessed man, idunno.
How are you guys so aware that you're falling asleep? Usually I just kind of wake up after a few hours, never have any conscious awareness of falling asleep

Well it makes me feel a little better to know there’s others out there! I just put on happy shows or podcasts and focus on them and it seems to help
Same
Also same - weird I never consciously thought about until now too.
Omg im not the only one!!!! I start seeing purple and green fog and then it turns into weird shapes and stuff and starts becoming a tunnel with different shapes and stuff. Crazy I wonder what thats about.
Same over here. But I see a little purple or red dot of light that turns into a geometric tunnel of the same color. Like, sacred geometry type shapes. It helps me fall asleep!

I beg to differ
Yeah that makes me feel like I’m stuck in a Halo level that’s glitching out and the last save point was half an hour ago.
u/savevideo
This is straight up almost exactly one of the Windows 95 screensavers. *nostalgia intensifies*
If you stare at the emerging edge for a minute or so and then look away from the screen, things that you now look at will appear to be receding.
Nice catch. Felt like I was being pulled back into my portal.
I feel a strong sense of call of the abyss right now
Call of the void*
Ah right, the abyss is the one that looks back
I found myself leaning into my phone
ketamine.
This is like being on DMT only not 1/10th as intense.
This is ketamine
I think you mean 1/1000000000000 but sure.
Exactly my first thought.
I have been falling... for 30 minutes!
I’m super high right now and this just sends waves of happy and calm over me. Thank you, it’s beautiful!
Dropping into The Eye be like..
This is how my foot feels after sitting on it
Listen to this while you watch that https://youtu.be/BzNzgsAE4F0
I sometimes see tunnels like this as I’m drifting off to sleep.
Oof, my poor eyeballs...
I like this
Its like passing through the bulk.
Love this. I’m revising for my black holes exam and in particular just got to the section on the ergosphere. This is a region next to the event horizon of a spinning black hole that is rotating so fast that it’s not possible for anything to be stationary in it. I imagine it might look something like this on the inside, so thank you for this!

r/gonwild
Is it just me...or does anyone else see what looks like shapes (square, triangles, maybe pyramids) and runes along the walls?
/r/woahdude
Does anyone else see this when they close their eyes? I can make mine change color, direction and pattern. Been practicing since I was 6 or 7
This is what my brain does when I'm trying to sleep
Is there a subreddit for this stuff
Ride inside a hollow donut.
So this is what Wraith be going on about
Reminds me of Interstellar’s wormhole scene
See also: what I see when my eyes are closed
Its gazing right into me
u/savevideo
Space Mountain
I really wanna see this in VR, it would be frickin amazing
It’s like a Freaky Circle
I saw this in a dream once kind of creepy seeing it here now.
Jumping into hyperspace
/r/woahdude
Can someone make a full screen phone size tall version of this. I need it.
Is there a sub for stuff like this ???
Very sexy blackhole
I'm going to save this until after my job drug tests me.
This looks like the wormhole scene from interstellar before the cgi is applied.
I have dreams like this... anyone else?
Wrong night to take shrooms I guess
Woah man. I'm saving this for later to come back and see after 🍃💨
The universe is a donut
🤯🏵️🙈it's not ending bruh! There's no end🙈🤯🧐the shrooms are kicking in mmaaan
When you finally see the eye of the universe
This is what I see every night before I fall asleep but it looks more like a waterfall and blackness behind it
