Neurons to Nirvana
8 Mar“Neurons to Nirvana” is probably the best film I have ever seen on psychedelics. The film makers have assembled a formidable group of top experts on psychedelics which include, among others, figures such as Rick Doblin, Dennis McKenna, Ralph Metzner, Wade Davis, Gabor Mate, Stanislav Grof, Jeremy Narby, Judy Holland, Michael Mithofer, Charles Grob, Kat Harrison, Ronald Griffiths, James Fadiman and Michael Winkelman. These not only impart some fascinating information about psychedelics with great eloquence, but also sound the psychedelic message and its importance to our society with great lucidity and force.
This is a great introductory film to the topic psychedelics, and quite probably the best video to use if you want to educate a friend or a parent about the true facts of the subject, and the potential of these extraordinary mind-tools. I highly recommend watching the full film.

29 Jan
A film crew have captured young dolphins gently chewing on pufferfish to get themselves high off the potentially deadly neurotoxins it emits. The BBC documentary Spy in the pod caught the youngsters passing the fish around each other before entering a trance like state.

A Taste of Freedom
26 Oct“A Taste of Freedom” is a somewhat unusual documentary film by Dutch filmmaker Jan Beddegenoodts. The film is unusual in bringing together two disparate worlds: the lively Israeli trance party scene on the hand, and Palestinian West-bank demonstrations on the other hand. It provides some uneasy perspectives on the political position of the psychedelic underground, especially in a place like Israel, where talking about “Peace and Love” is more problematic due to a highly repressive political situation. The film is not without it’s flaws, and the comparison between the two worlds of ravers and activists, stand at the danger of becoming overly simplistic at times, yet Beddegenoodts largely avoids this by remaining evocative and descriptive rather than judgmental or prescriptive. Overall, the film is well worth watching.
