If they keep doing this kind of research regularly, surely it would help increase the popularity of go?

I am writing to let you know that my LSD microdosing research programme, using the game of go to measure creativity and intuitive pattern recognition, is finally moving ahead, and we will be ready to start testing later this year. Some time ago, you responded to a call for participants circulated amongst go-playing communities. If you are still interested in participating in this ground-breaking research, please do let me know by filling in the form available at http://beckleyfoundation.org/2018/04/23 ... ing-study/.

I filled in and submitted the form … am I going to meet you there? :D

i imagine reading would be a little difficult... on higher doses of psychedelics, i think that time/sequences tend to "collapse" and i experience short-term memory loss. mathematical calculation becomes extremely difficult.

so... i'm hypothesizing that on lower doses we would see some these effects to some degree.
