'''Holes, spaces and voids''' are a sub-component of visual disconnection that manifests when it has become all-encompassing in its intensity. This experience is more commonly known within the literature as the "K-hole"<ref>K-hole (Wikipedia) | https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=K-hole&oldid=816882466</ref><ref>K-hole (urban dictionary) | http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=k%20hole</ref> and is generally discussed as something which is specifically associated with [[ketamine]] despite being present within most traditional [[dissociative|dissociatives]]. It can be described as the place a person finds themselves in once visual disconnection becomes powerful enough to leave the person incapable of receiving external sensory input. This replaces their visual input with a space that subjectively feels as if it is outside of normal reality. | '''Holes, spaces and voids''' are a sub-component of visual disconnection that manifests when it has become all-encompassing in its intensity.

The visual appearance of this space, hole, or void can be described as a vast, mostly empty and darkened chamber which often feels and appears to be infinite in size. This space is usually dark black in its colour but can occasionally display itself with large patches of slow-moving amorphous colour clouds or subtle [[geometry|geometric patterns]] across its horizon.

This space is usually dark black in its colour but can occasionally display itself with large patches of slow-moving amorphous colour clouds or subtle [[geometry|geometric patterns]] across its horizon. At its higher levels, these voids are often populated with hallucinatory structures which are comprehensively described and documented in the subsection below. | ||
Alongside this visual experience [[changes in gravity]] and a powerful sense of [[tactile disconnection]] are also usually present which can result in one feeling as if they are undergoing an out-of-body experience while weightlessly floating through a void over great distances in a variety of different speeds, directions, and orientations. This is a feeling that is interpreted by many people as floating through space or the night sky. | Alongside this visual experience [[changes in gravity]] and a powerful sense of [[tactile disconnection]] are also usually present which can result in one feeling as if they are undergoing an out-of-body experience while weightlessly floating through a void over great distances in a variety of different speeds, directions, and orientations.
