I was and still am a hippie chick. That was the era that formed the person I am now. I still tie dye my own t shirts, make candles and wear Nag Champ oil by Spiritual Sky. My family says that I am stuck in the early 70s..I did all the drugs and went to hundreds of concerts and I wouldn't change any of it. We've all heard how the Summer of Love was a psyop.. that we were being set up .. problem, reaction, solution. Many of us fell for it and let drugs and alcohol consume us. Many of us lost our way. IMO, the movement was hijacked by a government psyop know as the new age movement, but, many of us old hippies still know the simple fact, that 'all you need is LOVE'. Nothing can change that and no one can create a problem, reaction, solution about that. Love is eternal and Love is Real.. (thank you John!)

:ugeek: hi folks.

I've found the full 4 parts of this discussion/interview with Dr Hans.

I'm geeky enough, and keen on the idea of having my own late-night-radio show, enough, to be fascinated by this talk and this subject in general. Others may not be.

Although it's quite legitimate to call this "The [Secret] History of FM Radio", it's much broader and more interesting than just that. The Huxleys are a key feature and there are many more fascinating references to early insights.

He refers back to genuine chunks of text or soundbites and takes us in explorer mode more than lecture mode.

This whole area of interest is a biggy for me. So big that it has a local gravity and an influence on my own personal skill set, that still looking for positive things to to.

Hey there and thank you for posting these videos. Now, to find time to listen.

norman, I am wondering what you think/ feel about our ability to absorb information directly from the intelligence field and/ or commune telepathically? I am not being crazy or sarcastic or ironic ... just seems we have reached the "quotient process rate" and will soon be using other faculties.

I seem to be developing the ability to intuit a lot more than I ever could before.

If I can do it, anybody can.

Back in 1967, FM radio WAS the 'intelligence field' for a huge number of baby boomers. The boffins created their own version, as usual, and jumped the gun, to get their spin into everything first.

I've been fascinated by the word and meaning of Psychedelic for a few years now. Since before I found out that the 60s culture was almost certainly an M K ULTRA fest.

I can't say I've got it figured out yet.

What I can say is that I've found an internet radio station/24-7 server that plays very tasty psychedelic/ambient music that sounds fantastic on a good hi-fi system ( or good headphones ).

If you've been wondering where all the oomph and or melodious harmony went from rock music, it went chilled out and psychedelic. Here it is, I've found it again.

I've been recording the stream, on and off, since 5 or 6 years ago. Sometimes my broadband connection fks things up and I get jumps or dropouts. More often than not, I get a decent chunk of good stuff, to listen to 'off-air' ,err, as it were.

Paradise Lost: The Hippie Refugee Camp

from here

Image

Let me tell you about a place called Taylor Camp, a tropical ocean-front utopia without rules, politics or bills to pay. Anti-establishment all the way, clothing was optional and decisions were made according to the “vibes”. It was the ultimate hippie fantasy.

Image

Taylor Camp began in the Spring of 1969, with thirteen hippies seeking refuge from the ongoing campus riots in America and police brutality. Having fled their homes, they headed for Kauai in Hawaii, then a very remote and unspoilt land with just a single traffic light on the island.

Image

“We were involved in the anti-war movement and Berkeley was ready to explode. It was either pick up a gun or leave,” remembers Sandra Schaub, one of the founding members of Taylor Camp along with her husband Victor. “So we decided to leave for Europe and went, ‘Oh what the heck, we’ve never been to Hawaii; we’ll just go to Hawaii and on to Asia and Europe.’ We had no idea what we were doing.”

Poor, homeless and uninterested in living any kind of standard lifestyle, it wasn’t long before the tribe of hippies landed themselves and their children in jail for vagrancy. But an unlikely Hollywood name came to the rescue. Howard Taylor, Eizabeth Taylor’s brother who was a resident on the island, bailed them out and invited them to live rent-free on his land, one of the most beautiful spots on the island where the unspoilt jungle gave way to a crystalline blue bay.

Image
These photographs were taken by Taylor Camp resident, John Wehrheim. The accounts of the Taylor Camp residents you will read here are excerpts from his photo book, Taylor Camp.

Image

There was no electricity or amenities of any kind and Howard pretty much left them to it. The society dropouts started building their beach-front tree houses with bamboo, scrap lumber and salvaged materials. The “flower power campers” were living out their utopian dream without any restrictions or supervision.
