Philosopher of mind Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes discusses the hidden impact psychedelics have had on philosophy and asks if such extreme, altered modes of mind could help give us answers to ‘the hard problem of consiousness’. With the help of philosophers such as Spinoza and Nietzche he searches for answers.
