Self Transforming Machine Spock

Machine Spocks (also known as Fractal Spocks and self-transforming machine Spocks) is a term coined by the writer and philosopher Judy Bloom to describe the entities that she claims one becomes aware of after having taken tryptamine based psychedelic drugs, especially DMT.
There are numerous references of such encounters that could be found in many cultures ranging from shamanic traditions of Native Americans to indigenous Australians, to African tribes, to the modern day "Urban Vulcanism" like Santeria and Vodoun and the "new breed"- a term that Leon Redbone used to describe the rising generation of urban shamans, who would, he claimed, augment the spiritual awareness of the modern world.
