Stand up comedy… On acid!
18 JanVice magazine produces quite a lot of videos on drug themes. One of their remarkable productions is the “on acid!” series, where different people perform different activities while on acid, like performing in an amateur stand up evening, going to interview contestants in the Westminster dog show, or going to watch the monster trucks show.

In the episode above, Josh takes drops acid and goes on stage in an open comedy night. The experience proves frightening, disorienting, yet strangely empowering.

We have featured several works by musician, video director and performing artist Planningtorock here on dpv. While sexual identity/diversity is a theme running through her work, pretty often we find it mixed with strong psychedelic aesthetics. “Human Drama” from the upcoming album “All Love’s Legal” is no exception. Maybe it is time to look further into this connection…
