Okay so I’m not famous or a big time musician but it is my full time job and have been performing for 10+ years. My band is well known regionally but no I won’t dox myself. Lots of our music is improvisational in nature.

Anyways, there’s this “thing” that I can’t quite figure out, and maybe I’m not supposed to. But I’m wondering if any other performing musicians want to chime in? It’s so hard for me to put into words, but it has hints of telepathy, and even teleportation. There’s not much I or we as a band can do to really control it. It just happens when it happens, but when it does we and everyone in the audience knows, and it’s always one of those things where we just look around at each other after it happens and we all know that it did happen, but no one can really explain it. The first time this happened to me was when I was just jamming and hanging out with my sister. “I” was just playing, (I put quotations because idk I feel like when I get into a flow state, it isn’t really “me” playing per se), and we both felt like our consciousness was about to get transported to some other realm or something. Totally wigged me out and I got scared. But then devoted my life to finding that experience again. It’s totally fascinating and I’d love to hear some others’ thoughts.
