Brian Blomerth’s Lilly Wave
AU$70.00 Read MoreAdd to cartBrian Blomerth
New York: Anthology Editions, 2024.“In the third entry in his ongoing series, Blomerth opens a porthole on the life, experiments, & addictions of John C. Lilly – the man whose development of the isolation tank and ketamine-fueled dives into the nature of consciousness made him perhaps the most notorious researcher of the psychedelic era. Featuring alien visitations, interspecies encounters, and no shortage of concerned onlookers, this is a story that’s equal parts cosmic & paranoid, transcendent & tragic.” (publisher’s blurb)

Brian Blomerth’s Mycelium Wassonii
AU$60.00 Read MoreAdd to cartBrian Blomerth
New York: Anthology Editions, 2021.“Brian Blomerth first fused his singularly irreverent underground comix style with heavily-researched history in 2019’s Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day, a Technicolor retelling of the discovery of LSD. Now, the illustrator and graphic novelist continues his wild and woolly excursions into the history of mind expansion with Mycelium Wassonii, an account of the lives and trips of R. Gordon and Valentina Wasson, the pioneering scientist couple responsible for popularizing the use of psychedelic mushrooms. A globetrotting vision of hallucinatory science and religious mysticism with appearances by Life Magazine, the CIA, and the Buddha, Mycelium Wassonii is a visual history and a love story as only Blomerth’s Isograph pen can render it.” (publisher’s blurb)

Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day
AU$60.00 Read MoreAdd to cartBrian Blomerth
New York: Anthology Editions, 2019.A visual history of the world’s first acid trip. With an introduction by Dennis McKenna. “Illustrator, musician and self-described “comic stripper” Brian Blomerth has spent years combining classic underground art styles with his bitingly irreverent visual wit in zines, comics, and album covers. With Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day, the artist has produced his most ambitious work to date: a historical account of the events of April 19, 1943, when Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann ingested an experimental dose of a new compound known as lysergic acid diethylamide and embarked on the world’s first acid trip. Combining an extraordinary true story told in journalistic detail with the artist’s gritty, timelessly Technicolor comix style, Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day is a testament to mind expansion and a stunningly original visual history.” (publisher’s blurb)
