It's not. Amongst this very long sequence there are landscapes in funky
photographic coloring and some early special effects like milk diluted in water
in slow motion to make it look like galaxies. The other caleidoscopic patterns
do look a bit like what SW would do to represent hyperspace traveling a decade
later...

could be. Dave shut off the computer who ran the ship and with no way to get
back home safely, decides for suicide via overdose of LSD. A valid
interpretation no doubt. Drugs can always explain all scifi speculations, like
in Matrix too...
except, of course, why speculate in the first place then only to explain it all
as the doing of drugs or a bad dream? That's a hallmark of bad fiction.
