[narrator] In 2014... researchers mapped what’s happening
in the brain during a trip. This is a representation
of a normal sober brain. These dots are different regions
of the brain, and these lines are the connections. And here’s what the tripping brain

[narrator] In 2014...
00:00:02.167 --> 00:00:05.996
researchers mapped what’s happening
in the brain during a trip.
00:00:05.379 --> 00:00:08.424
This is a representation
of a normal sober brain.
00:00:08.716 --> 00:00:10.516
These dots are different regions
of the brain,
00:00:10.634 --> 00:00:12.636
and these lines are the connections.
00:00:12.097 --> 00:00:15.264
And here’s what the tripping brain
looks like.
00:00:15.431 --> 00:00:19.101
Regions that wouldn’t usually talk
are now in lively conversation.
00:00:19.184 --> 00:00:21.645
One can't help but wonder
00:00:21.729 --> 00:00:26.525
whether in this period
of extreme interconnectivity
00:00:26.608 --> 00:00:29.695
that there isn't a potential for
00:00:29.778 --> 00:00:32.448
rewiring or making new connections.
