Groovey Troopers present Vision Serpent ft Burn In Noise

>>>VISION SERPENT<<<

SAT. 20 March 2010
Experience Psytrance Culture!

Ecstatic dancing – whether at parties or more ritualised settings - is about touching base with the cosmos. As an avatar of this blissful union, the Vision Serpent in Mayan cosmology represents (amongst other things) the moment during public rituals when entire communities are swept up in fits of euphoric dancing. Conjured into being through blissful grooves, vision serpents are portal openers that unlock gateways into fabulous other worlds. They were – and still remain – potent symbols of psychedelic trance culture.

The Village presents Acid Test v 2.0

~~~The Village Presents Acid Test v2.0~~~

The Acid Tests were a series of psychedelic parties held by Ken Kesey in the San Francisco Bay Area during the mid 1960s, centered entirely around the use, experimentation, and advocacy of LSD, also known as "acid."

The name "Acid Test" was coined by Kesey, after the term "acid test" used by gold miners in the 1850s. He advertised the parties with posters that read, "Can YOU Pass The Acid Test?", and the name was later popularized in Tom Wolfe's 1968 book, The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. Musical performances by the Grateful Dead were commonplace, along with black lights, strobe lights, and fluorescent paint. The Acid Tests are notable for their influence on the LSD-based counterculture of the San Francisco area and subsequent transition from the beat generation to the hippie movement....
