Come on down to Funk Junction, we've got it all!
Songs about cats, songs about
orange things, songs about
dolls, and songs about
Canada! We have
IDM,
jungle,
breakcore, and
harsh noise! Do you like
jazz and
modern classical music? Great! We've got that, too,
chopped up and
re-arranged for easy digestion!
A whole world of sound, created by Aaron Funk! A veritable city of
Venetian Snares! And we have a biography, too, after the break (or you can skip the background, and go directly to
the streaming music). Please note that kids should probably stay outside the Funk Junction, as it'll get
loud, angry and obscene at times.

Cary in the Sky with Diamonds. "Before Timothy Leary and the Beatles, LSD was largely unknown and unregulated. But in the 1950s, as many as 100 Hollywood luminaries—Cary Grant and Esther Williams among them—began taking the drug as part of psychotherapy. With LSD research beginning a comeback, the authors recount how two Beverly Hills doctors promoted a new 'wonder drug,' at $100 a session, profoundly altering the lives of their glamorous patients."

Is there no humor in public relations? The public relations blog PRBlogNews included a post last week on PR and LSD (
a long strange happy tradition). It appears to have been a joke, mixing a selection of early youth-on-acid videos with a vintage discourse about LSD by Dr. Richard Alpert (later
Ram Dass) re-imagined as a history of successful "tripvertising." It must have stirred some sort of trouble; there's been a follow-up, "LSD and PR don’t mix" post (
Don’t eat the brown acid) which warns
against mixing PR and LSD (and hot dogs).

Acid Round the Clock : stories. No, not stories about acid. (Or are they?)
"This isn't my fucking persona," he said, louder, more forcefully, turning over more tables as he headed for the door.
But instead of using the door when he got there, he jumped through the plate glass front window beside it, and, while he was still in midair, continued intoning, even louder, "And THIS isn't my fucking persona EITHER!"

91 pounds of LSD? ...at that dosage level, Pickard and Apperson possessed 2 billion hits of acid—enough to give every person in the Western Hemisphere two doses and still have 250 million hits left over.
Ryan Grim is writing about acid again at Slate.

Ken Kesey in critical condition in Eugene. . .He's been sort of a local celeb around here. Cuckoo's Nest is still one of the major works of the 20th Century even though he never wrote anything approaching it. I hope that he survives to write more and is seen again cruising in his Caddy convertible.

Acid.org is cool... I just noticed ACiD redesigned it's main page. It's good to see groups like ACiD and
iCE are still organized producing art. For those who remember those ANSI and BBS days, don't go there expecting to see that sort of stuff.
