Greetings,
Isn't that state what Gurdieff described as C4: the fourth level of consciousness ?
I used to have it while playing blitz games as a teenager. I still reach it 1/3 of the time
while coding, but I can never stay in it for too long.
Samantha: how long could you stay in that state ? Any negative effects ?
I do not remember you saying much on that topic on the Progstone list.
I'm curious about your experiences with C4
.
