	MARK VALLEN'S "ART FOR A CHANGE": Art of the Psychedelic Era
		Psychedelic artists left their mark on graphic design, typography, fashion, fine art - and invented new forms like light shows and "happenings", the predecessor of performance art.
		What we’ve been told about the Psychedelic movement up to this point is generally a load of crap, and it pains me to no end that such a vibrant and original school has been reduced to a handful of cheap, mocking and inaccurate clichés.
		It’s wonderful that the Tate and Kunsthalle museums are making an effort at sorting out the Psychedelic movement, giving it some context and attempting to make some sense of it all - but voluminous studies are still needed to cover the wide range of psychedelic aesthetic practices and their motivations.

	Psychedelic rock - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		However, an inner core of the psychedelic style of rock that came to public attention in 1967 can be recognized by characteristic features such as modal melodies; esoteric lyrics often describing dreams, visions, or hallucinations; longer songs and lengthy instrumental solos; and "trippy" electronic effects such as distortion, reverb, and reversed, delayed and/or phased sounds.
		While the first musicians to be influenced by psychedelic drugs were in the jazz and folk scenes, the first use of the term "psychedelic" in popular music was by the "acid-folk" group The Holy Modal Rounders in 1964.
		The first use of the word "psychedelic" in a rock music context is usually credited to the 13th Floor Elevators, and the earliest known appearance of this usage of the word in print is in the title of their 1966 album The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators.

	Psychedelic - Free Encyclopedia of Thelema
		A psychedelic experience is characterized by the perception of aspects of one's mind previously unknown, or by the creative exuberance of the mind liberated from its ordinary fetters.
		Psychedelic states are one of the stations on the spectrum of experiences elicited by psychedelic substances.
		The impact of psychedelic drugs on western culture in the 1960s led to meaning drift in the use of the word "psychedelic", and it is now frequently applied to describe any brightly patterned or coloured object.

		Psychedelic Language is the title of a presentation given by Scott Santoro of Worksight for the Hood Museum of Art’s exhibit at Dartmouth College.
		The American downtowns of that era either tore down or removed layers of ornamentation and replaced it with second-generation international style—minimal, and ahistoric; all for the sake of appearing “modern.” So the hippies embracing of past styles, and the adopting of an anti-modern aesthetic seems to have been an act of defiance.
		The word itself, Psychedelic, means mind-expanding, and the Psychedelic drug, LSD, or acid, was thought to be a way to expand one’s thinking by temporarily removing the user from the world to find some other way.

	Psychedelia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Its beginnings are associated with San Francisco but the style soon spread across the U.S.A., and worldwide.
		Psychedelia takes its name from psychedelic (mind manifesting) drugs, which assisted in fueling an entire subculture of fusing together different genres and mediums where strong boundaries had previously existed.
		The counterculture of the 1960s had a strong influence on the popular culture of the early 1970s, and is well recognized even by those who are naïve to its psychedelic origins.

		Well, being old enough to actually have been through all that stuff and time :(I think that the 60s were simply a period in which we nationally (and in some other countries) shifted gear from the industrial age to an interim or transitional age.
		It was the use of psychedelics, for many and certainly for me, that led to a "higher" perspective, where social mores and mental games and cultural habit patterns became so much more apparent.
		Psychedelics were important in breaking my mind free of all that I'd learned to that point in my life.

	Metroactive Music \| Children of Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the Second Psychedelic Era, 1976-1995
		For her, as for many, the term "psychedelic" conjured up horrifying visions of thundering power rock, à la Blue Cheer, the San Francisco-based proto-metal band that scored a 1968 hit with a psyched-up version of Eddie Cochran's "Summertime Blues," or the incendiary guitar solos of the Jimi Hendrix.
		But psychedelic music has influenced three generations of music makers, and it remains a vital force within the rock, jazz and folk genres around the world.
		The new box set Children of Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the Second Psychedelic Era, 1976-1995 (Rhino) gathers 100 tracks on four CDs to chronicle some of the '70s, '80s and '90s bands that emerged from the psychedelic matrix to form the core of the garage rock, dream pop, power pop and paisley underground scenes.

	"What is 'Art Psychedelic'?"
		Psychedelic, which means "mind-manifesting", refers (in this context) to anything reminiscent of the psychoactive effects of entheogens (formerly known incorrectly as "hallucinogens") such as LSD, mescaline, psilocybin, DMT, etc. However, a person doesn't necessarily have to have tried any of these mind-expanding sacraments in order for them to appreciate psychedelic artwork.
		In my personal opinion, the psychedelic era was the greatest artistic renaissance in the history of America.
		I've often wondered whether these "pigs" and "squares" came to regret their actions when the peace, love and marijuana of the hippies were finally crushed, only to be swiftly replaced by the violence, anger and heroin of the punk-rockers.

	Psychedelic Rock and Hippie Music from The Bomp Bookshelf (Site not responding. Last check: )
		But a central fact of the era was that "we" believed in the beauty and innocence of the whole thing, and that belief, while misplaced, was nevertheless an experience subsequent generations have not had the pleasure of.
		Psychedelic Rock documents the many artists who took part in the psychedelic era and shows how their music and ideas are still a vital part of rock music and continue to influence artists today.
		Certainly, the notion of psychedelic coding is perfectly plausible--we might well expect some connection between the fact that musicians and their audiences took hallucinogenic drugs and the particular characteristics of the music.

	Psychedelic Books
		Cited as "the cultures foremost spokesman for the psychedelic experience," Terence McKenna is an underground legend as a brilliant raconteur, adventurer, and expert on the experiential use of mind-altering plants.
		The book treats self-reports of psychedelic experiences as a wealth of neglected data which forms the basis to expand the psychoanalytic model of human imagination.
		More than just a sound, psychedelic rock is a philosophy, a way of creating the "cinematic music of the imagination." Whether readers were present at Ken Kesey's acid trips, or cut their musical teeth on Sonic Youth, this book will be provocative and fascinating reading.

		Studies were both naturalistic and controlled, involving administration of a wide range of psychedelics and drug dosages to schizophrenic, depressed, alcoholic, anxious, "neurotic," and terminally ill patients, as well as to "normals," artists, and the countless graduate student study subjects.
		With most other psychedelic substances, the individual and guide are often able to prepare and plan for the locus of the session, which may be to address specific therapeutic issues, heighten psychodynamic transference, or to impel "transcendent" states.

	Summer of Love : Art of the Psychedelic Era at Kunsthalle Wien \| Art Knowledge News
		Summer of Love is an exhibition about psychedelic art that reveals the unprecedented exchanges among contemporary art, popular culture and political protest in the 1960’s and early 70’s.
		The dialogue carried on among psychedelic art, political revolution and counterculture found its reflection in unique aesthetics, bordercrossing, overflowing, formless and motley; aesthetics that, just as Albert Hofmann describes the effect of LSD, appear “in an unexampled play of colors and forms......
		At a time when the stylistic and formal elements of the art, design and music of the 60’s and 70’s are again being liberally exploited, it is important to move beyond a nostalgic reception and attempt to understand the original creative and utopian potential of this extraordinary style.

		Though nearly all of the Temptations’ psychedelic soul records are laden with anonymous filler—as was every Motown record—each would prove a musical, lyrical and conceptual advancement over the last.
		And Eddie Kendricks, the sweet, high falsetto of the group, was becoming increasingly sickened by Whitfield’s psychedelic explorations and spent much of his time angling to bolt for a solo career in which he hoped he could indulge his taste in sugary ballads.
		Leaving long behind calls for climbing aboard the friendship train and dropping in at the psychedelic shack, “Papa’s” lyrics told a bleak tale of a family reunion in which brothers talk to their mother about their cad of a father who was never around.

		If the psychedelic sixties were born in the dancehalls of San Francisco, then they were conceived in a saloon in Virginia City, Nevada where the musicians carried Winchesters and the kitchen served French gourmet meals.
		The psychedelic era fostered cultural growth and artistic expression.
		The Red Dog Saloon was the incubator for the lightshow and psychedelic poster art, an entire lifestyle that truly defined a remarkable era and defied classification as it weaved it's tapestry of free love and music, which the Grateful Dead would spread around the world.

	indieville: review: various artists - love, peace and poetry: japanese psychedelic music
		From 1968 to 1972, a large and healthy psychedelic scene existed in Japan, of which few artifacts remain today.
		As we've come to expect Q.D.K., this is a fantastic and well-representative selection from the Japanese scene, and, although this may not appeal to those who dislike psychedelic music, fans of the genre are in for a treat.
		While many of the psychedelic compilations out there touch on North American, European, and Australian music, the fourth installment of the LPP collection has successfully covered terrain that even the Pebbles series couldn't take on.

		When John Van Hamersveld left the art school scene of the late Beat Era in the early 60's artists were becoming media minded like Andy Warhol and The Factory with the Velvet Underground.
		The popular Beach Boys were on the same label and their sound was a part of the transition of the surf sound in the 60's, during music industry standards, all turns into the psychedelic sound and fashion of the high culture of the new media.
		And from that era, one image still stages strong, the Screamers poster by Gary Panter since it pictured the rage evident in this new sound of social consciousness.
