I've thought about this quite a bit, Erowid has good data which I'll request from them. Check back on the app in a few weeks, you might see it there.

Thanks! I used shadcn and tailwind so not having a clunky component library helped with performance.

Thank you!

Thank you! Yes I want to add more data from different fields and see how the they relate. Possibly Erowid DMT experiences as well since they have a lot of similarities with OBEs.

Hi HN! I scraped 8,000 NDE/OBE accounts, analyzed them with AI, and built three ways to explore them:

1. *Search by meaning* — "floating above my body" finds similar accounts even with different words 2. *3D Map* — Experiences clustered by semantic similarity (UMAP on embeddings) 3. *Listen* — AI voices + ambient soundscapes. Surprisingly immersive.

The audio was the most fun to build. ElevenLabs narration layered with ethereal ambient pads — you can listen to these accounts like a podcast.

Not making metaphysical claims — just making 20 years of scattered NDE research data actually explorable.

Try: noeticmap.com/listen for audio, /map for 3D visualization.
