Land

LSD, Mescaline, and a Lost 1959 Classic of Psychedelic Research, Memory, and Consciousness

In 1959, Eugene Seaich recorded nine dated sessions with LSD and mescaline and wrote a philosophical essay about what they showed him: that the mind’s oldest memories lie waiting beneath everyday consciousness. His typescript is now restored and annotated.
