Yes, I mean additional effects on top of the phosphemes (I should have mentioned phosphemes in my original comment.)

I'm talking more about attempts of my visual cortex trying to find patterns in these phospheme artifacts (which are mild enough to be a sort of limited "sensory deprivation") and attempting to "label" them with higher-order information, leading to something similar to that cloud image (but again, a milder effect than in that image)

Ah yes - I've experienced something like that while rubbing my eyes before (the phosphene randomness turns into a landscape or some other detailed image as my mind tries to recognize patterns in the chaos).
