Robert Anton Wilson at the Brain Machine
Symposium, 1989
Now on DVDIn 1989, author and philosopher Robert Anton Wilson was the featured speaker at the Brain Machine Symposium, held at the Thelemic Arts Center in Saugerties, New York. A group of brain machine developers and merchants brought an amazing collection of devices to the event and, following Wilson's insightful and funny introduction, the audience was turned loose on the machines.
'The videotape of the event was lost for many years – but was recently discovered while we were cataloging our archives. We are now very happy to present Robert Anton Wilson at the Brain Machine Symposium – featuring Wilson's talk, along with the even more entertaining aftermath, when we had all become very relaxed and silly from using the machines for several hours.'

This feature about Philip Dick's "Valis" experience was published in Weirdo comic #17 from summer, 1986. It is an interesting graphic interpretation of a series of events which happened to Dick in March of 1974. He spent the remaining years of his life trying to figure out what happened in those fateful months. (Philip K. Dick Fans archive).
