  • Jacaber-Kastor 2019.Pdf
    Jacaeber Kastor: Psychedelic Sun By Carlo McCormick In turns perplexing, disorienting, wondrous and utterly beguiling, Jacaeber Kastor’s drawings make you look, look again and then still more, trying to find your way in their miasmic magic until at last, well, you discover the special pleasure of being truly lost. And when you think you’re done, when you’ve decoded the esoteric and abstract, conjured all the forms and meanings from these oceans of latency, answered the call of otherness as if it were the sphinx’s riddle- turn the work or flip your head, around and around, because there is no single perspective to read Kastor’s psychedelic topography: it is an entwined and constantly unfolding omniverse that has no right side up or upside down. If, in the course of your wanderings through Kastor’s meandering poetics of line and space, you come across the unexpected, the oddly familiar or the impossibly alien- for indeed you surely will, quite possible all at once with overwhelming simultaneity- and you ask yourself how did you even come to get here, you might also ask how indeed did this artist arrive at just such a place him- self. Make no mistake about it, Jacaeber Kastor is an intrepid voyager of body and mind, an adventurer without destination or designation, a man without return for even when he has somehow been there before he understands it as different, everything nuanced with the subtle shifts of impercep tible change, actuality always just beyond the tiny grasp of appearance, reason or replication. His art, like the convolutions of a restless mind guiding the inspired hand of uncertainty, is the tracings of a mind- traveler, a map to the nowhere that is everywhere, something so personally idiosyncratic that it marks a shared commons where likeness meets in a zone of compatible dissimilarity.

  • Candidate Number: 2002 Do Psychedelics Enhance Artistic Ability? Word Count: 4,999
    Candidate Number: 2002 Do Psychedelics enhance artistic ability? Word Count: 4,999 Overview Artistic, as defined by Merriam-Webster Dictionary (2016), is showing imaginative skill in arrangement or execution. According to Oxford Dictionaries (2017), artistic indicates something that is “aesthetically pleasing” and includes a keen sensitivity to such. Due to the subjectivity of artistic ability, the enhancement of it is difficult to investigate, thus, the debate is broken into four categories: Motivation to Produce, Creativity and Innovation, Perception and Technical Skills, and Aesthetic Quality. By analyzing each individually, a holistic conclusion will be achieved. A psychedelic drug, or hallucinogen, is defined as “any of the so-called mind-expanding drugs that are able to induce states of altered perception and thought, frequently with heightened awareness of sensory input but with diminished control over what is being experienced” (Jenkins, 2007). Dr. Jenkins, a distinguished professor at Baylor University with an extensive array of publications, has conducted thorough research into drugs. With this definition, a divergence of mentalities towards the debate emerges. Psychedelic induced hallucinations are characterized by vivid colors, complex patterns, and incomprehensible transformations of one’s environment (Dahl, 2015). Consequently, this contributes to the notion that these hallucinations inspire and amplify artistic ability. Regardless, the lack of control and skewed perception may weaken artistic ability. Psychedelic drug is a broad term that includes many substances. To enhance clarity, three prominent hallucinogens shall be discussed in this report: lysergic acid diethylamide, psilocybin, and mescaline. Lysergic acid diethylamide, known as LSD or “acid”, was developed by Dr. Albert Hofmann in 1938 (LSD-Assisted Psychotherapy, 2016).

  • Altered States: the American Psychedelic Aesthetic
    ALTERED STATES: THE AMERICAN PSYCHEDELIC AESTHETIC A Dissertation Presented by Lana Cook to The Department of English in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the field of English Northeastern University Boston, Massachusetts April, 2014 1 © Copyright by Lana Cook All Rights Reserved 2 ALTERED STATES: THE AMERICAN PSYCHEDELIC AESTHETIC by Lana Cook ABSTRACT OF DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the College of Social Sciences and Humanities of Northeastern University, April, 2014 3 ABSTRACT This dissertation traces the development of the American psychedelic aesthetic alongside mid-twentieth century American aesthetic practices and postmodern philosophies. Psychedelic aesthetics are the varied creative practices used to represent altered states of consciousness and perception achieved via psychedelic drug use. Thematically, these works are concerned with transcendental states of subjectivity, psychic evolution of humankind, awakenings of global consciousness, and the perceptual and affective nature of reality in relation to social constructions of the self. Formally, these works strategically blend realist and fantastic languages, invent new language, experimental typography and visual form, disrupt Western narrative conventions of space, time, and causality, mix genres and combine disparate aesthetic and cultural traditions such as romanticism, surrealism, the medieval, magical realism, science fiction, documentary, and scientific reportage. This project attends to early exemplars of the psychedelic aesthetic, as in the case of Aldous Huxley’s early landmark text The Doors of Perception (1954), forgotten pioneers such as Jane Dunlap’s Exploring Inner Space (1961), Constance Newland’s My Self and I (1962), and Storm de Hirsch’s Peyote Queen (1965), cult classics such as Tom Wolfe’s The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test (1968), and ends with the psychedelic aesthetics’ popularization in films like Roger Corman’s The Trip (1967).

  • Psychedelics and the Conscious Mind
    PSYCHEDELICS AND THE CONSCIOUS MIND HANA S. I researched psychedelics—not only the impact they have on an individual, but how psychedelic drugs influenced contemporary art from the 1960s to the present day. In the 1960s, there was a need to look outside of the dominant society and psychedelics allowed for a new thought process to expand consciousness. Inspired by my research, I built a chair to invite the participant to “tune in and drop out” (the counterculture-era phrase that Timothy Leary, an American psychologist, popularized). Most chairs sit upright, but I designed a chair that one must lean back into. When you lean into something, you are less focused on people and distractions surrounding you. Because you are more relaxed, you are more focused on yourself and the present moment. My chair forces the participant to expand their awareness of the surrounding environment. By sitting in my chair, the participant will be able to drop into a relaxed, altered consciousness. This state of mind might allow one to question authority and the norms that hold us from expressing alternative viewpoints. Hana S Can psychedelics expand our consciousness?

Recently, scientists have been exploring psychedelics more deeply for medicinal and therapeutic purposes.
