Austin Osman Spare called this a state of "neither neither" - a state of
mind where the internal chatter is silenced and a strange kind of auto-pilot
takes over. This can often happen if you drive the same route to work
everyday - you arrive not even aware of how complete the journey was, let
allow all the internal instructions needed to drive car.

which of course doesn't disqualify your theory tristan. in fact, i believe
the moment you describe usually comes right after the moment i'm
describing- when you return to your 'self' and become aware of the
communial nature of the event. so i think you and rich are really just
examing two points on the same highly fuzzy late-night timeline.
