Alice in Pepperland

2 Jan

One of  Disney’s weirdest  films, an a adaption to the surreal classic “Alice in Wonderland”, was set to the Beatles’ psychedelic music . I love the result.

tiny celebrations!

We wish you a million tiny celebrations of a psychedelic life!

(btw, I did enjoy playing both videos at the same time quite a bit…)

Crystal Castles – Air War

Trippy Trends in Minecraft: Freefall

2 Oct

We have covered Minecraft before here on dpv. But this time the psychedelic activity is completely user generated. And this proofs an important point: If people would live in a box of legos they would still look for a way to trip.

It is also interesting to compare the aesthetics especially of the first video to the trippy sequence of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Everyday Psychedelia Pt.2: Night Flights

7 Aug

Whenever I book a flight to a big city I try to make it a night landing. Those pulsing breathing organisms of light look so alien and soothing.

What mushrooms did she eat?

25 Jun

The title of this video of this video on YouTube sounds derogatory, but after watching the video itself, it really makes me laugh.

There is something so incredibly cool about people who are really really stoned, or for that matter, maybe just don’t care about social conventions.

This girl is really expressing herself, and to me, this is one of the most beautiful things to watch.

1990s X Rave – Amazing footage

17 Jun

Watching other people on drugs is fun and interesting even when you are totally sober.  Sometimes, it can bring you back to the way it felt for you when you were buzzing. At other times it is just plain funny and weird to watch.

This 15 minutes movie is taken from a security camera from installed in a 1992 rave where most of the people must haven going on incredibly high doses of ecstasy (Check out the incredible jaw movement of the dude at 2:10).

Ecstasy, incidentally, is not really a psychedelic, only a semi-psychedelic, and is linked to many adverse affects,  so it’s best to learn about it before thinking of giving it a try.

The 1990s D.J. who uploaded this video writes some pretty moving words on YouTube, reminiscing about the times:

“In this video which is actually 4 hour long cut down, you will see how some of the people enjoyed the best music in rave culture. Some people will never see these days and some will have lived them so I dedicate this to you and the friends gained and lost through good and bad times. enjoy…

If you was there say your shout outs as you would have wanted…
If you have lost friends maybe you can add a tribute.

If you want to put a bad comment have some respect and keep it for your self..

This video is surely about the good times… Its about Peace & Love”

Birdfractals

28 Mar

They tell us that fractals are all around us in nature, but I didn’t know birds could do that. I don’t even know if this counts as some sort of fractal, most probably not, but it certainly looks like one of those old Microsoft Windows screen savers from the 90’s. Only one thousand times more amazing, because it’s all real, and it’s all birds! Quite spectacular!

Multiple Reality Acroyoga

This is what happens when you mix acroyoga and string theory’s multiverse.
