“The wisdom of ‘connecting to the forest’ while out hunting with the tribe sounds like a sixth sense to us. Compared to doing nothing else but sitting at a desk like we do, it probably is.” @bruceparry.bsky.social at Exeter Uni Psychedelic Colloquium

“When you’re foraging or hunting you bring a different level of attention to the present moment. Our ancestors practiced it every day. And that’s when something else appears to us.” @bruceparry.bsky.social Exeter Uni Psychedelic Colloquium

“I’ve had journeys when I’ve been humbled by my assumptions what I was receiving was Psychedelic Colloquium purely metaphorical. Is it coming from inside, intuitive? Or is it something else?” @bruceparry.bsky.social Exeter Uni Psychedelic Colloquium

“In the Gambon, the initiation isn’t the psychedelic experience - it’s how well you eat the Iboga bark. It tasted like wood chipping and battery acid. That took me 12 hours.” @bruceparry.bsky.social Exeter Uni Psychedelic Colloquium

“I joined the Royal Marines at 18. After I left I joined the expedition space, got a job with the BBC, filmed with the Babongo Tribe in the Gambon. Eventually they asked me”want to get initiated?” I replied, “yeah!” @bruceparry.bsky.social Exeter Uni Psychedelic Colloquium

Psychedelic Colloquium @UniofExeter with @bruceparry – “Indigenous tribes have conducted a longer line of research than anyone.”

“When an old friend fed back, ‘I don’t remember any of this crazy stuff happening?!’ I had to point out I was reading from my new magical realist novel. Not my DJ memoirs.” @justinrobertsonart.bsky.social to @joemuggs.bsky.social at neoancients.com X @weirdwalk.bsky.social

“The @KLF_Online @confidencemanTM 'Emergency Chill Out Clinic' 100 ppl in hospital beds watching immersive visuals listening to Jimmy Cauty play ambient remixes. Grand ideas should be taken seriously and followed through.” Steve K2 neoancients.com X @weirdwalk

“The sound system from Castlemorton was playing as Grace Sands from DiY placed the brick containing Simon DK's ashes. In the moment of bereavement the party is all the greater for remembering.” Daisy Eris on #KLF People's Pyramid Mumufication project neoancients.com X @weirdwalk.bsky.social

"Rituals evolve and emerge over time. I went to Milton Keynes for summer solstice last year: the architect aligned its main street to the sunrise. St Michael's ley line runs through there and Avebury stone circle.” @Ben_Edge_Art 'Folklore Rising' neoancients.com X @weirdwalk.bsky.social #Stroud
