Midday Veil – Moon Temple

1 Sep

An epic 24-minute psychedelic improv session by the Seattle-based multimedia ensemble Midday Veil for a song called “Moon Temple”. The video was created by the band during a residency at the Experimental Video Center in upstate New York and makes use of video synthesizers and feedback generated by live movement to add a synaesthetic visual counterpart to the music.

Ha-Kochav Ha-Kachol opening scene – 1995

25 Aug

Ha-Kochav Ha-Kachol (Blue Panet) is probably the only Israeli psychedelic feature film ever done. It is a tale about a guy who arrives at the Tel Aviv Bus Station, gets his stuff stolen by a hobo, and then embarks on a cosmic adventure. Directed by Gur Bentvich the film  used to be screened at the Tel-Aviv Cinematheque every Friday on midnight for a number years during the nineties.

The opening sequence, has a very low-budget but well made psychedelic animation sequence.

The Trip (1967)

18 Aug

Peter Fonda was involved in a number of psychedelic films in the end of the 1960s, among them the classic Easy Rider and Psych Out, both of which featured the psychonauts-friendly young Jack Nicholson. The Trip (1967) is perhaps the most psyhedelically ambitious film of them all: it is perhaps the only film which is wholly dedicated to following one trip of one person for almost the whole duration of the film. Anyway you look at it, it is a unique cinematic adventure in psychedelia.

You can watch the entirety of the film on YouTube in the link above.
