The term psychedelic animation refers to animated works that mirror altered states of consciousness through techniques such as "visual patterns of hallucination, cryptic symbols, perception of cellular or atomic forms, and strange journeys or narratives." Dr. Maureen Furniss, a historian of animation at the California Institute of the Arts, defines psychedelia as "[m]usic or visual art based on the hallucinatory experiences produced by psychedelic drugs" (446).
