And now for something completely different...

Nice. I'll see you that link and go you one on the same subject from 1991.

entheogens have been central to the development of mathematics and Comp Sci
over the last few decades.

The great pivotal period of the 60's, where so many locate the birth/
emergence of "postmodernism" could perhaps better be seen as what post wwII
chemistry was doing to the predominant paradigm: first comes Kerouac, bebop
and speed and just when that was asimilated and defanged came an even
bigger shift - LSD. The so-called collective conscious would never be the
same again; minds were being blown open and testing the ramparts of the old
regime.

   (Go check out that Blue Boy episode - 1967 and the first episode in
color! -  of Dragnet to get an idea of how the whole thing was shaking up
society.)

  And then comes this stuff from Latin America, crazy fiction that has
people turning into fish! Notice how many people get turned onto Borges at
the same time: it was as essential for Barths as a writer as it was for
Foucault as a thinker. Now what about Cortazar and Pynchon? Where do they
fit in all this?
