Psytrance Foot-Soldier

The movie 'It's All Gone Pete Tong' was about a world-famous DJ who became deaf and then despondent because he could no longer hear or play music but then recovers and figures out how to play a set to a massive crowd. Good movie. It was a fictitious story... however the following video is not.

Psyentific American

On the heels of David Jay Brown's recent in depth article about current medical psychedelic research projects published in Scientific American, the prestigious science magazine now has a brief yet immensely favorable article about Sasha Shulgin and the truth about entheogens.

"It is like opening a door to a hallway," he says, "that has unopened doors for its entire length, and behind every door is a world with which you are totally unfamiliar."

Cool movie available online in full.
From IMDB:
The remarkable story of The Weather Underground, radical activists of the 1970s, and of radical politics at its best and most disastrous.

Times Article on Medical Psychedelic Research

Positive mainstream press on psychedelic science resurgence and the Basel conference.



Could Ecstasy, LSD and magic mushrooms one day be legitimate prescription medicines? It sounds unlikely, but doctors and researchers in the US and across Europe believe it is possible and that new science will prove the case.

The Ultimatum : Benjamin Fulford

You may have been following this story over the past year or perhaps you saw the youtube video of Benjamin procuring an interview with genocidal slave-driver David Rockefeller. Well here is a new 2 1/2 hour interview with all the phenomenal details. From growing up with ayahuasca-drinking Shipibo Amazonians as a teenager to being being caught in a matrix of global bankers, ninja assassins, HAARP technology, masons, political figure-heads, the engineered SARS virus bioweapon, and powerful Asian secret societies, Fulford's story is remarkable and mind-blowing, more so than any movie ever could be. The final vision he relays is one that any visionary, mystic or psychedelic techneshaman can easily confirm.

From the description:

Benjamin Fulford resigned as Asia-Pacific Bureau Chief of Forbes Magazine after investigating a scandal which the editor refused to report. As he researched global affairs further in his own time, he uncovered for himself the complex web which is global financial control at the hands of the Rockefellers and the Rothschilds - and also the existence of racially targeted bioweapons such as SARS.

It was these plans for global depopulation that upset some important and powerful factions in Japan, Taiwan and China. After being approached by a real-life, present-day Ninja, matters came to a head in 2007 when Benjamin became the first Westerner for 500 years to be admitted into the ranks of the Eastern Secret Societies, a vast group with six million members. Acting as their spokesman, he stepped up to the plate to deliver a simple message to the Illuminati:

Recognize that your time is over, step down without a fight, and allow the world to thrive as it should - or face the consequences from up to 100,000 professional assassins for whom no love is lost towards the self-styled ruling elite of the planet.

Terence McKenna

This short video evokes some of the emotion I felt when I first found Terence McKenna in 95, the same year the proceeding audio was recorded. I guarantee the 9 minutes you spend watching this video will be remembered as rewarding.

Peyote to LSD: A Psychedelic Odyssey

Premiere airing on The History Channel April 20, 2008


Plant Explorer Richard Evans Schultes was a real life Indiana Jones whose

Psychedelic Sixties.

Featuring author/adventurer Wade Davis ("Serpent and the Rainbow"), Dr. Andrew
Weil, the Grateful Dead's Bob Weir and many others, this program tells the story

300 Brazillian Women Destroy GM Crop

Around 300 women rural residents in Brazil burst into a property owned by the US company Monsanto and destroyed a plant nursery and crops containing genetically modified corn, their organization said.

The women were protesting what they saw as environmental damage by the crops.

They trashed the plants within 30 minutes and left before police arrived at the site in the southern state of Sao Paulo, a member of the Landless Workers' Movement, Igor Foride, told AFP.

The Brazilian government had "caved in to pressure from agrobusinesses" by recently allowing tinkered crops to be grown in the country, he said.

A New Marriage of Brain and Computer

Stuart Hameroff: A New Marriage of Brain and Computer

Google Tech Talks September, 21 2007

I decided to back to college a couple years ago to be a better witness to (and participant in) the current convergences of mathematics, genetics, systems/information theories, nano-technology and psychedelic science, so I enjoyed this lecture which delves into biophysics, neuroscience and the qualia of consciousness. Hameroff's research reveals some amazing information relating to drug activity, synchrony and consciousness. He appeared in the slapstick, new-age mega-success 'What The Fuck Do We Know?' (ice-crystals getting their feelings hurt and shamans who can't see an ocean vessel right in front of their face... okay, the drunk, horny cartoon hormones were cute...) but definitely don't let that turn you off from what he really has to share.

and here's a more recent, more philosophically-based interview if, either, you want see more of Hameroff or the technical-chemical-physics stuff in the above lecture is too confusing:

The Esoteric Agenda

If you enjoyed Zeitgeist [re=edit], Astrotheology & Shamanism, or Micheal Tsarion, Jordon Maxwell, Robert Anton Wilson, Alex Jones, or other historical revisionists, you'll probably like this info-packed, nicely edited, scored and narrated doc, The Esoteric Agenda.
There's no discussion of drug wars, entheogens or psychedelic technology, but it certainly scratches the novelty itch!
