- Demonized for decades, psychedelic exploration and research are experiencing a major resurgence. Non-medical consumption is on the rise, and a "paradigm shift" was diagnosed in the mental health field when the FDA declared psilocybin a "breakthrough therapy" for depression. Now more than 600 start-up companies are competing in this emergent healthcare market. How can we understand the significance of this psychedelic renaissance beyond utopian hopes and moral panics? And are psychedelics the miracle drugs we desperately want them to be? On this panel, The New School brings together anthropologist and historian of science, Nicolas Langlitz, and alumnus Hamilton Morris, chemist and journalist, to discuss why history appears to repeat itself as we enter a new era of psychedelic enthusiasm.
Panelists
- Nicolas Langlitz, Assoc Prof, Anthropology at NSSR Anthropologist, Historian, Founder/director of the Psychedelic Humanities Lab
- Hamilton Morris, BS in Liberal Arts, Chemist, Saint Joseph's University.
My boys going grey , but still the best media personality iv ever found
His Patreon is fantastic
prohibition of substances that have huge potential to help all sorts of human barriers is tyranical in my opinnion. we are in a the dawn of a new age of understanding and fullfilment.
Subscribed to Hamilton Patreon great content on there keeps me entertained during the work day
Attitude is part of the experience, I think. Meaning that, each person must have a genuine desire and looking, maybe seeing things from a different view. I will call this surrender. When I have surrendered, while using a drug and also when 'broken', the world (universe) seem so simple to understand and appreciate. Like having blinders or cataracts removed - excitement and joy. Then, almost immediately, I begin to 'hook' myself back into limitations like wants, desires, anger... One thing I have learned and will try to describe.
What are you looking for?
That is what you will find.
Why look for 'that'?
Is it good?
What is good?
Write that down in words for yourself.
You know!? WOW!!!
How do I get my hair to look like Hamilton’s??
I got distracted with how Langlitz says “psychedilic”
lol same
I wanted so badly for psychedelics to be a therapeutic experience that could be consistently replicated. Doesn’t work that way. The closest I came to that was with IV administered ketamine (technically an anesthesia).
I’ve done a lot of work with acacia species, venoms, and anything active. Ibogaine also seemed to have a consistent effect albeit not a recreational one. I’ve PiHKAL’d and TiHKL’d with passion and commitment; just can’t imagine this “renaissance” doing well with capitalism 🤷♂️. Just like the legalization and commercialization of cannabis. Guess I’m in the anti-hype camp. Gonna be alot of grindy sweaty disappointments out there
who is best capable of adressing that is a group of : 1 or 2 shamans, a generalist doctor, and a machine that reads the energy of the body, i think there have been these machines before but they failed to become global, a psycho analyst ( probably yungian ), and a nutritianist ; there may be more that could be helpful.
His voice is just tooo deep. needs to keep the microphone further from his mouth. Very distracting.
