Announcing Psychedelictraveler.com a new twin site to the DailyPsychedelicVideo, on the DPV’s 5 year anniversary

25 Apr

Dear DPV Followers, world psychonauts, wherever you are,

Exactly five years ago, on April 25, 2010, the first post on the DPV has been published. At the time it was not clear whether one could find enough psychedelic videos to sustain a site which purported to publish a new psychedelic video every day. Since them, more than 2000 videos were published on the DPV, and we proud ourselves for being the biggest collection of psychedelic videos on the web.

Today, we wish to announce a new psychedelic project intended to answer another need felt by psychonauts around the world. Psychedelic Traveler is a website dedicated to psychedelic travel locations around the world: Places which are fun and inspiring to explore under the influence of a psychedelic mind alterant, or, more generally, places which evoke psychedelic sensibilities in psychedelically-aware individuals.

In Psychedelic Traveler we hope to create a first-of-its-kind collection of recommended sites for psychedelic experiences and for psychedelic travelers – a comprehensive open-ended, community-based compendium of psychedelic locations around the globe.

Intrepid psychedelic travelers are highly interested in finding out about psychedelic gems to visit and immerse themselves in. Our hope is that in a few years Psychedelic Traveler will include hundreds of psychedelic travel recommendations, so that any psychedelic traveler on the road can easily search the database and find psychedelic locations in the area they are in.

We are looking for contributors! If you’ve traveled across the globe and discovered fantastic psychedelic locations, or if you’re hometown or country has a psychedelic location that the world’s psychonauts should know about, please contact us through the “Suggest a psychedelic location” link and let us know about them.

So be sure to visit us, and we hope you’ll like our new initiative. Let us know what you think! Here or on the new website.

And finally, for all those who weren’t there that day 5 years ago, when the DPV got started, here is the first video that was ever published on the site. The incredible Story from North America, which continues to be one of my favorite videos on the site to this day! (Original Post)

MARIA SABINA-EL TRI

13 Apr

Maria Sabina was a mexican curandera who worked with psilocybin mushrooms and it was through her that the west first became aware of the existence of the magic mushrooms, when mycologist R. Gordon Wasson and his wife Valentina met her and became the first westerners to participate in a traditional mushroom ceremony, in 1955. The rest was history, as this event, and the ensuing article in LIFE magazine were among the most important catalysts leading to the psychedelic revolution of the 1960s. Those of you who don’t know who Maria Sabina might want to first go and read her Wikipedia article.

This song, by Mexican rock group El Tri, celebrates the figure of Maria Sabina calling her “a symbol of the wisdom of love.” Great song.
