This weekend sees the Horizons 2008 conference taking place in New York City, discussing topics related to psychedelics:
Times are changing. The freewheeling sixties are now a distant memory and the hype of the millennial rave fever has finally been laid to rest. Now, a small group of dedicated researchers and activists has orchestrated a renaissance in psychedelic research that is re-shaping the public’s understanding of these unique substances. Horizons brings together the brightest minds and boldest voices of this movement to share their research, insights and dreams for the future.
The stellar line-up of speakers includes visionary artists Alex and Allyson Grey, MAPS head honcho Rick Doblin, author Daniel Pinchbeck, and pharmacological pioneers Sasha and Ann Shulgin. Full details available at the website.
