RonnySimulacrum Posted October 23, 2018 (edited) Today we're releasing a lecture by David Nickles from the DMT-Nexus at the Entheogenesis Australis Psychedelic Symposium, titled ‘The Future of Unsanctioned Psychedelic Research’. David has been a vocal presence in the psychedelic community of late and this lecture will give you a deeper understanding of his views. The lecture also has important comments from prominent research advocates Rick Doblin and Ben Sessa in the Q&A. The talk focuses on some of the research the underground community has been engaging in and why, as well as explores some of the more controversial topics and possible 'shadow' sides to sanctioned research. For example, David asserts that while sanctioned research is incredibly important to the current psychedelic paradigm, it is equally important to consider the social, economic, political, and legal factors that influence the content and viability of these efforts. David raises some critical questions for consideration around the mainstreaming of psychedelic research, and outlines some of the challenges ahead.

RonnySimulacrum Posted December 4, 2018 Squidgygoanna Q - When is the next Conference A - As volunteers, a conference like this takes around 2 years to set up, so probably the next big EGA will be late 2020.

RonnySimulacrum Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) In honour of Tim Payne Today we're sharing a video of Tim Payne, co-founder of the botanical charity Entheogenesis Australis (EGA). Tim passed away earlier this year after losing a battle with cancer. The video was recorded at the tenth anniversary EGA conference in 2014. Tim talks openly about his life, travels and growth through a long relationship with entheogens, LSD and MDMA. He discusses consciousness, psychology, neuroscience, martial arts, meditation, drugs, sex, addiction, ageing and the positive outcomes of intentional but sporadic drug use over his life. Tim will be eternally missed by his friends, family and the EGA crew. Without question, he lived a vibrant and inspirational life that many of us could only hope to achieve. Please enjoy Tim's talk and share it with any of your friends and family that may have known him. Edited September 29, 2019 by RonnySimulacrum 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RonnySimulacrum Posted June 22, 2021 Title - A brief overview of Australian Psilocybe and active allied species This short talk, by fungi educator Caine Barlow, briefly describes the four main species of Psilocybe found in Australia and New Zealand, including one main Psilocybe ally. Many fungi have lookalike species that can be easily confused. Knowing the features, expected habitats, and potential lookalikes can help reduce the risks of potentially picking the wrong species. Bio - Caine Barlow Caine Barlow is a Mycologist and Fungi Educator based in Melbourne, Australia. He gives regular talks on mycology, fungi conservation, and teaches gourmet mushroom cultivation. He is a member of the Australian organisations Entheogenesis Australis, MYCOmmunity Applied Mycology, The Australian Psychedelic Society, and the Entheome Foundation. Caine started foraging for mushrooms in the early 1990's, and started cultivating gournet fungi in the mid 2000's. He did his Bachelor of Science at the University of Tasmania, and a Master of Science at the University of Melbourne where his research project was based around Conservation Mycology. In addition to fungi, Caine has had a long term interest in ethnobotany, ethnobotanical literature, and growing medicinal plants - in particular Cacti and Acacias. He writes for DoubleBlind and ThirdWave, is a “Trusted Identifier” on The Shroomery, and a moderator on many Facebook fungi groups. Caine posts regularly on his Instagram, @guerrillamycology, sharing adventures from cultivation, foraging, and ethnomycology, to interesting observations from his home lab.
