Feeding back to the psychedelic community of Los Angeles, Terence McKenna delivers an hour of colorful and astounding visual transformations. He weaves a galactic tapestry of art-tickled articulations of the history and future of psychedelic alchemy, the government/ culture clash, and the surging general ordering of chaos from UFO's to archaic shamanism. This recording will amuse anyone interested in subjects ranging from eco-tourism to techno-junkies.
Terence Kemp McKenna was a writer, philosopher, psychonaut and ethnobotanist. He was noted for his knowledge of the use of psychedelic, plant-based entheogens, and subjects ranging from shamanism, the theoretical origins of human consciousness, and his concept of novelty theory.
It might not be important, but the informational blurb states that these events happened in L.A. They were from sessions held by Terence McKenna at The Open Center in New York City, as referenced in the conversation. It is also 9 hours, not one.
McKenna is one of those people who likes to talk, and can ramble. Much of the information is already dated. It looks like he could not foresee that psilocybin would some day be thought of as therapeutic.
