I first noticed this back when I used to get high. It happens when an amount of time seems to take longer than it really does. However, it is not due to an unpleasant sensation. It's like being in the moment so intensely that you lose all track of time and an eternity happens in a second. Do you know what I'm talking about? And, if so, can you explain it better than me?
I've been getting into some new music, and, if you listen to it closely, it sort of transports you to that timeless dimension that chemically enhanced states can do.

Then pull your knees in tight. Step to the right then jump to the left. Time will then resume its normal flow at one hodon per chronon.

What music are you listening to?

It was summertime, and the windows were open.
The driver flicked his cigarette, and I watched as
the ash flew out his window, arced back into the
back window, hit the side of my nose, and exploded
into thousands of particles.
All of this occurred in slow motion, and at no time
was I alarmed. I was frozen in fascination, and it
DID NOT DISAPPOINT!
I still can remember it clearly!
