Object activation
Object activation can be described as the experience of looking at an object and percieving it to move, become alive or become fully animated and autonomous of its own accord. For example, if one is looking at a microwave the door may open and close on its own, or a cup on the table may start to slide or tilt over. The "activated object" usually moves in a familiar way that would happen in day to day life, furthering the point that the brain is having external hallucinations in one's environment. However, it may also perform actions which are completely unrealistic. For example, an item of furniture may appear to disassemble into many floating complex rotating sections before reassembling into its previous state. These hallucinations usually only occur when one looks directly at an object for an extended period of time and are rare and extreme signs of an advanced hallucinatory state.
The mindstates that often cause this effect are those encompassing delirium and psychosis; drug induced or not. These include but are not limited to: sleep deprivation, stimulant psychosis, delirium brought on naturally or by deliriants such as diphenhydramine and datura.
