The code of reality, Matrix, DMT and Lasers with Danny Goler

In this episode of the Ayahuasca Podcast, host Sam Believ talks with Denny Goler, an entrepreneur and researcher who has gained viral attention as the "DMT Laser Guy." Denny is the founder of Code of Reality, an organization that investigates simulation theory and the computational substrate of existence through experimental methods. By projecting a diffracted laser while in a DMT-induced state, Denny claims that anyone can observe what appears to be a "self-executing code"—a highly specific, non-random linguistic structure that suggests our physical world is a computationally rendered simulation.

Key Discussion Points

• 04:15 – Denny’s early start with psychedelics (age 11) and how mushrooms eventually cured his debilitating OCD.

• 08:30 – The "Frog Dude" encounter: The hyper-realistic experience that convinced Denny the DMT realm wasn't just "in his head."

• 12:10 – The First Principles of the Laser Experiment: Why light and geometry are the keys to testing the reality of the space.

• 15:45 – Describing the "Self-Executing Code": Why it feels like looking through a microscope at an operating system rather than a typical "trip."

• 18:20 – Replicating the results: Shamanic experiments with Ayahuasca and the "8K resolution" version seen on 5-MeO-DMT.

• 21:30 – The DIY setup: How to safely use a 5-milliwatt diffracted laser to see the underlying substrate of reality.

• 25:00 – Challenging the Null Hypothesis: Why Denny assumes the phenomenon is real and invites science to prove him wrong.

• 29:15 – The Specificity of the Code: Why the characters resemble Asian languages (Chinese/Japanese) more than random brain-generated patterns.

• 33:40 – Perturbing the Observation: Code of Reality's mission to use magnets and high-res video to find a scientific "handle" on the code.

• 38:10 – Defining Simulation Theory: The world as a computationally rendered space that doesn't negate spirituality or God.

• 42:45 – The "Nested Dolls" of Reality: Communication with higher-dimensional species tending to different layers of our "game."

The DMT Laser Experiment: A Summary

The core of Denny's work involves the use of diffraction, which splits a single laser beam into a complex "speckle pattern." In ordinary consciousness, this looks like static. Under the influence of DMT (or other tryptamines like Ayahuasca), the brain appears to use this pattern as a scaffolding to perceive a stable, moving, and intricate "code."

Understanding the Computational Substrate

Denny argues that behind the laws of physics lies computation. If reality is a simulation, the "physical" world is simply the output of an underlying operating system. This perspective aligns with the "multiverse" theory, suggesting we are one sliver of a larger computational space.
