If you know his background and have read his books (most recently
"Food of the Gods", "Archaic Revival", and "True Hallucinations", you
know that he's an ethnobotanist who believes that psychedelic mushrooms
played a major part in human evolution and that the DMT experience
illuminates untold mysteries of the human mind and soul. The CD, which
is a recording of several talks he gave at a SF rave last year, is
half McKenna talking with backup music by Space Time Continuum, and
half STC music.
The speeches are McKenna 101, although nicely delivered (IHMO--a lot
of people hate his vocal tone and delivery). He's really loopy, but
he believes what he's doing. (My wife, looking over my shoulder, says
I must write that she thinks he's 'out there' but enjoys his work anyhow.)
The music is liquidy--future-housey, and again some people don't
like it. I think STC's name is Jonah Sharp...he has a track on the
From Here to TRanquility CD.
