Some Gamers Hallucinate Game Sounds After Playing
A new study from researchers at Nottingham Trent University observed that playing games for long sessions of time may have some interesting side effects, like causing auditory hallucinations from the games you’ve played.

To the extent that these experiences are convincing, detailed, explorable, real, they make fluid the line between the visionary and the everyday worlds. Perhaps they teach us to de-reify the world, to personify, to mythologize — to obliterate the boundaries, construct a visionary world from the detritus of the everyday, let us see through, turn the world into metaphor, into magic.
