The ‘Psychonauts’ sound like the Hedonistic Imperative version of utopia:
The Psychonauts had formed the second most popular cluster. They endorsed hedonism as a theory of value, believing that the purpose of life is the elimination of suffering and the enjoyment of bliss.
Yup! In this way it also has things in common with the mentioned “archipelago” utopia. Another example in this vein that I’ve heard good things about but haven’t read is Ada Palmer’s “Too Like the Lightning”.
