Sensory deprivation

over 8 years

I've become fascinated recently with the idea of total sensory deprivation. I've been looking into anechoic chambers and floating therapy chambers and how they work, but both seem to lack complete annihilation of all sensory experience (anechoic chambers leaving room for rustling of clothes and talking to yourself, therapy chambers being little more than dark pools of saltwater). While I do my own research, could someone with maybe more insight tell me about what I should expect and the closest thing I can get to ultimate silence and darkness?

What do you seek to achieve from this?


I'm not sure. I've been thinking quite a bit recently about how everything we perceive is a sensory experience and how are lives are shaped by it, and I've been questioning what is real and what the word real even means.

I don't think that makes a lot of sense, rereading it. I'm not a religious person, but I can only describe the desire to do this as religious.

I could explain this a lot better if I was high.
