Do any parts of the Psychedelic Sangha get recorded? Being located in Amsterdam, physically attending is not possible. And due to time zones dialing in would mean waking at 3AM on Sunday morning. I would still be very interested in listening in to part of it.

Hi Jeremy. Thanks for your interest. For the Sangha meetings, we intentionally do not record the Q&A so that people feel comfortable (or comfortable enough) speaking freely about their own experiences. The SF Dharma Collective have been recording the meditations and some of the talks (though last night I forgot!). But we haven't posted them on the youtube yet. When we do I will definitely let Burning Shore readers know!

Thanks Erik. It's totally understandable that the Q&A doesn't get recorded. Maybe one day I'll get to listen to some is the rest...

Thanks for Great stuff again!

Somehow one issue of Hustler survived in my museum, but it’s a good one from March 1984 featuring an article from Tim Leary on porn, and pics of Elvira. Fun to look back on old magazines n see how things changed.

One thing about those old mags: now that the online porntopia of every extreme imaginable has rendered the porn on Hustlers pages pretty blase, the magazine in the 70s and 80s reminds me more of High Times, or Creem. Its got a tacky pulp fun factor that contemporary digital media can't really pull off. Its like they are already moldy under the couch.

I watched Curtis’ latest... My mind when I ponder our collective predicament (which is always): https://vimeo.com/90204210

Thanks for the link. I hope you don't mind, I tweeted it! I love pre-cinema tech, how the images veer towards weird imagery, looping effects, and kaleidoscopic patterns -- just like psychedelics.

Ha! I was afraid you might start to loathe me and my links! Still, I promise not to “get weird” and begin a deluge. I was pretty sure you’d like that music video. It’s fantastic. I looked for it in the Psychedelic Video Museum and didn’t find it. It should be there.
