You're damn right. It's a shame we can't be that in awe of the world 24/7 and still function.
well it's also something to the effect that the only white noise we get is produced by television and machines, not by waterfalls, and the only stimulation we get is from massive sensory overload, not a subtle meditation over a tranquil sunset.
the only songs we hear are generated formulaically and repeated ad nauseam, and not created by the wind and the crickets and the subtleties of organic life.
the fact that i haven't been out in nature in forever..........
there is no REST in this world, which is why this video is paritcularly beautiful because 1: it's just a group of humans ALONE, so that they can all connect to each other and have a sense of unity, rather than the sense of extreme isolation we feel when we are constantly surrounded by thousands of strangers. 2) they are in nature AND tripping. How much more resotrative does it get?

It's up to us to start a new 60s, do you think the 60s would have happened if everyone sat on their asses watching TV? I hope we the shroomery can influence the minds of millions with our altered brainwaves so as to instill a peaceful new hippy generation. Wishful thinking though.

We are kind of in a new 60's if you consider the circumstances. Sudden explosion of drug law reform support, we're in a war we don't want, and psychedelics seem to be regaining popularity to a certain extent.
I have a feeling that we're going to see a breakdown of the rat race generation sometime in our lifetime. Either full on legalization or the end of the world. Either one wouldn't be too bad.

I wasn't just saying that because I saw mushrooms in it. Like I said, there was a packaged video of Syd Barret's First Trip, and on the very video it said the experience was a mushroom trip. I only say this because it was provided in the summary of the video.
I agree, though, those did look like non actives.

And I wasn't only saying it because of the mushrooms in the video either. I've seen some crazy shit in file names and file descriptions. People like guessing.
Aside from that, this was way before any kind of cultivation of these species. The only ones they'd be able to find growing in the UK would be liberty caps, and I'm really not sure how well known they were at the time, throw on the fact that identification would be tough. The chances of it being acid are a good 100 times greater, at least I'd say.

I have seen this pre-packaged DVD in Tower and it does say he was on mushrooms, who knows though the packaging looked kind of cheap.
That youtube site is pretty good have a look at this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oa87jfNWI_8&search=drugs

the world will only end if we attach to and believe what the media is selling us.
i do figure its just an elaborate test.
do you attach to fear? If so, bye-bye. Do you attach to love? If so, the world may have a bright future and you may be right.

I will agree with you on that one. However, if someone lived in an area where mushrooms were normally around, they would probably have at least a little knowledge that those kinds of mushrooms make you do strange things, or whatever. People that live near them have known about shrooms for a very long time.

I'm pretty sure i was there (age 11)...cruzin with herbie g., who was turning on alot of people at that time, with his cia connections and double-domed orangy/pink mushroom-essense tablets (same ones tim got with his 'research-grant') The rocky-hillside brought it back to me, that and the band.
On second thought, i think i must of dosed (at this same location, with the band) later, since syd was allready pretty far-gone at this time...crushing mandrax (english qualudes) tablets and mixing them with dippity-doo (sixties hair-gell) to 'relax his hair'
What a nut!
One more thing...that was me squeezing the squeeky rubber-ducky on inter-steller overdrive ( or some similar early 'freak-out' number)
Never got paid for that one either.

"double-domed orangy/pink mushroom-essense tablets"
Were those the sandoz psilocybin tabs? I know they were a pinky color.

Not sure who made them, but they were pharmaceutical psilocybin, 3 of them and i was seeing a peacock-feather, tantric sage mantle of light round tim's head & shoulder, so painfully vivid/beautifully to look at, and so specific in it's candle-flame like edges, that it was obviously a actual energy-field phenomenon, no mere hallucination!

Many decades from now I hope to remember my visuals as well as I do now, and not only when I read my confusing writings. Sometimes I wonder if occasionally tripping will keep my mind working in that way, or if the continuation will lead to too many experiences to decipher. Either way... isn't likely that I'll stop unless forced.
