<onlyinclude>'''~~External geometry~~''' ~~(also called~~ '''~~integrated geometry~~''' or '''~~embedded geometry~~'''~~) can~~ be ~~described as a~~ form ~~of a-typical~~ [[~~psychedelic~~]] ~~geometry which differs from~~ [[geometry|~~standard geometry~~]] through the way it is manifested. Instead of being independent from the external environment and floating in front of one's vision across a separate translucent veil, it is comprised of and embedded within parts of the external environment.

'''Environmental patterning''' is defined as the experience of certain textures or objects such as carpets, clouds, and dense vegetation drifting into increasingly complex geometric patterns that are always clearly comprised of the original material which they are manifesting from. These structures tend to be primarily symmetrical in nature, but also include [[form constants]], [[fractals]], and disorganised [[geometry|geometric patterns]].

~~This results in certain textures~~ such as grass, carpets, asphalt, tree branches and dense vegetation forming into extremely complex geometric structures that are comprised of the original material which they are manifesting from. These structures tend to be partially symmetrical ~~in nature~~, ~~but also include~~ [[~~form constants~~]], [[~~fractals~~]] ~~and disorganized geometric patterns~~.

Environmental patterning is often accompanied by other coinciding effects such as [[symmetrical texture repetition]], [[geometry]], and [[drifting]]. It is most commonly induced under the influence of [[dosage#common|moderate]] [[dosage|dosages]] of [[psychedelic]] compounds, such as [[LSD]], [[psilocybin]], and [[mescaline]]. </onlyinclude>

~~The experience~~ of ~~this component is distinct from~~ [[~~geometry~~|~~traditional geometry~~]] ~~as it does not occur within its standardized levelling system and therefore seems to be an entirely separate~~ [[~~subjective effect index~~|~~subjective effect~~]]~~. It is worth noting that this component may be the result~~ of ~~a synergy between~~ [[~~symmetrical texture repetition~~]], [[~~3-Dimensional textures|3-dimensional textures~~]] and [[~~geometry~~]].</onlyinclude>
