Event Information
Description
The APS Sydney presents an afternoon of ethnobotanical delights.
We will be gathering in the relaxed artistic comfort of Mothership Studios, in Marrickville to watch the award winning short-film, "The Shaman and The Scientist".
This film follows the perspective of psychedelic psychopharmacologist, Dr Dennis McKenna and curandero, Don Juan Tangoa Paima, as they venture through the Amazon in search of the medicinal plants.
Dr Monic Gagliano will also talk with us about her own journey with medicinal plants and the lesson's they offered her. Monica will also be discussing her wonderous research, seeking to understand the behaviour and comunication of plants. You can read more about Monica's story and ideas in her book. "Thus Spoke The Plant".
Come along, learn about the world of plants and have a chat with your local psychedelic community.
Organiser The Australian Psychedelic Society
Organiser of "The Shaman & The Scientist" with Dr Monica Gagliano
The Australian Psychedelic Society (APS) is an organisation seeking to connect Australia’s psychedelic community to benefit, enjoy and contribute to their culture in a safe and supportive environment.
The APS is part of a larger global movement with psychedelic societies already established in several places in the USA, UK and other European nations.
By creating a cohesive network, it is hoped that changes in drug policy, education and use will be established based on evidence-based information, rather than fear-based propaganda.
