[[Psychedelic art]], inspired at least in part by psychedelic substances, frequently includes repetitive abstract forms and patterns such as [[tessellation]], [[Moiré pattern]]s or patterns similar to those created by [[paper marbling]], and, in later years, [[fractal]]s.

In [[electroacoustic music]], JonMatthew WeinelEdward Hall has explored the use of altered states of consciousness as a basis for the design of musical compositions. His work bases the design of sonic materials on typical features of hallucinatory states, and organises them according to hallucinatory narratives. As part of this work, form constants feature prominently as a basis for the design of psychedelic sonic and visual material.<ref>Weinel, J.
