A trippy, artistic romp through Timothy Leary's philosophy of the early 1990s. Leary and his video team condensed their public lecture tour into this stimulating self-examination course for home viewing. Colorful flashing images barrage the senses as Leary narrates topics like Socrates, how to surf the waves of chaos, and the power of the pupil; all while encouraging us to think for ourselves and question authority. Only 30 minutes, but seems like an hour.
