About the LSD of VHS

Even though I have always been straightedge about hallucinogens1, I relish exploring the seemingly endless ways reality can be experienced and represented through art, language, philosophy, religion or cognitive science.
Over the years, many viewers of my videos have commented on them in the context of hallucinogenic or psychotropic experiences.
For this reason, I’ve always enjoyed Lauren Shantall’s witty title of an article she wrote about me in 1999. It was therefor a no-brainer for me to use it as the name of my website.

1: This is not due to any moral reservations. I am keenly aware of, and interested in, the use of psychotropic and hallucinogenic substances in many cultures. On this subject, the writings of Terence McKenna and David Lewis-Williams have inspired me for decades.
