In the field of pattern recognition, the current state of the art technology are the so-called deep neural networks, with many layers of neurons that learn to recognize features. The way that these learn to pick up certain features such as the edges of objects and then build them into an image is similar to the way our own visual processing works.
This page hosts some images, like that shown here, of places in these layers that are processing images, at the stage of the incomplete feature detectors. I find these have a lot in common with the way that visuals are perceived on psychedelics.
