Author: Brian Blomerth
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.Since 2019, graphic novelist Brian Blomerth’s stunningly original comix histories have combined detailed research and riotous visual wit to illuminate the discovery of LSD (in Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day) and the popularisation of psilocybin mushrooms (in Brian Blomerth’s Mycelium Wassonii). Brian Blomerth is an illustrator, cartoonist and musician based in Brooklyn whose previous publications include the wildly popular visual histories Brian Blomerth’s Bicycle Day (2019) and Brian Blomerth’s Mycelium Wassonii (2021). A veteranof the underground music and arts scene whose work has graced numerous album covers, posters, and clothing lines, Blomerth is also the author of the zines Xak’s Wax, iPhone 64: A User’s Guide, and Hypermaze.
ISBN 9781944860523. Anthology Editions. pb. 220 pages. 15 x 22 cm.
