Psilocybin Mushrooms of North America - San Diego - Nov 1
    #13408274 - 10/29/10 09:05 PM (13 years, 4 months ago)

I will be giving a presentation entitled Psilocybin Mushrooms of North America to the San Diego Mycological Society on November 1.

The talk will not be recorded so buy your plane ticket now.

Location and directions: http://www.sdmyco.org/when.html

Bio:

Alan Rockefeller is a mycologist specializing in the taxonomy of the Hymenomycetes.  He has spent the past three months in Mexico collecting and identifying mushrooms.  Alan is a network security expert, a moderator at the Shroomery Mushroom Hunting and Identification Forum, and posts all of his mushroom photographs on mushroomobserver.org.  When he is not hunting mushrooms Alan spends his time looking at mushrooms under the microscope, soldering electronics, hacking unix, sequencing mushroom DNA and setting up pirate radio stations.

The presentation:

Psilocybin Mushrooms of North America highlights both common and rare psilocybin mushrooms which grow in the USA, Canada and Mexico, with emphesis on species found in California.  The presentation contains many high quality original photographs and micrographs, habitat details and tips on finding, identifying and safely collecting psilocybin mushrooms.

I like the sdmyco website. Their web design prowess is second only to their knowledge of mushrooms, I'll bet.

Can you combine all your expertise and pirate the stream online, perhaps on a hacked unix box?

:thumbup: I would attend a talk if you came to Vancouver. Got some buddies at UBC that would join in, too. You should look into it if you are interested. Either UBC, SFU or UVic would probably sponsor you... I go to UBC so I could do a little networking if required.

Yes, but this is my first mushroom presentation.  I usually give presentations on hacking.

I uploaded a new version of the presentation.  Its still a draft but is almost done.  Suggestions are welcome.  The URL is the same.

Seems like a cool, informative, and thorough presentation. Thanks for using a couple of my pics, and for thanking me for it! Check it out Shroomerites, many of your shots are in there too!

All in all I couldn't find anything to critique. The pictures you chose were great and it is cool that you included micrographs.

Good job. :thumbup:

It was great!  Very large turnout, around 100 people.  The crowd was very enthuiastic and asked a lot of questions afterwards.

Great.  Maybe someday more clubs will be brave enough to have such presentations.  Was it recorded (I assume it was)?

I wish! I attended a few meetings a couple years ago when I wasn't working fulltime and going to school (like I am doing now!!). These days I might attend a few VMC events here and there, but no big involvement. I am a student at UBC with some buddies in Forestry, Ecology, and Geography. I want to figure out a way to get UBC to host a talk. It would be so RAD. Anyway, the wheels are turning.
