I’ve just found a remarkable 1963 study [pdf] from the Archives of Opthalmology in which 24 blind participants took LSD to see if they could experience visual hallucinations. It turns out, they can, although this seems largely to be the case in blind people who had several years of sight to begin with, but who later [...] Related posts: Scientific explanation of visual hallucinations Just 15...

Porsche's Boxster and Boxster S just found out they have a long lost brother. He's in better shape than they are, he's stronger, and much better looking. When it rains he puts on a funny looking hat, but that's ok, because he only really likes to go outside when it's sunny. He's the new Porsche Boxster Spyder , and he's already my favorite Boxster. Let's start with the fact that at 2,800lbs this is...

*American pop music used to be full of white middle-class Anglo kids who had taken some LSD and gotten all “weird.” Nowadays we’ve got pop music by extremely dissociative, utterly globalized networked kids who enjoy backpacking in the Hindu Kush while contemplating Italian Futurism. With ProTools. And they can cook. http://www.myspace.com/kundalinishockattack (…) “Ashvin...

Auto-Tune the Ads - seems like these guys are quickly moving past their prime and trying to embrace something new. At first I thought this was a bit disappointing but after watching the original ads I think what they've done is pretty amusing. Now how long until...

You know how sometimes an awesome story gets told so often that it becomes kinda boring? The first time you heard it, you wondered if it could really be that great. But then, over time, as other people learned the story and it got told too many times, it just sort of lost its elasticity, like a worn-out pair of boxer shorts. The Dock Ellis-LSD-No Hitter story is kinda like that. Awesome story. Heard...

Apparently, the more you drink the greater your protection against heart disease. Does that mean we should all be drinking at least a bottle of wine a day? The case against drinking alcohol has been promoted for so long and with such vigour that even I have started to wonder whether I shouldn't perhaps give it up altogether. I have occasionally done this before without huge difficulty, but have never...

If you're the type of voter who likes to pay attention to the candidates, rather than just the parties they represent, then you may be interested in a new online initiative called Skeptical Voter , which has just been set up in the wake of the controversy over the government's sacking of its chief drug advisor Professor David Nutt, after he stated that scientific evidence suggests that ecstasy and...

Warren Haynes has never hid his appreciation of the music of Deep Purple, so he must’ve been as happy as a kid in a candy store last night when he sat-in with the English rockers at the Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam. According to a report from our friends at Here Comes The Flood, Haynes added his unique brand of sizzling guitar to the Black Night encore . Haynes had formed a friendship with...

Now I’m all for modernity, but some things are just wrong. And urinals with swirling, changing, colours are one of them. I’ve tried, but I’m not warming to them. The scene of this affront to human decency? Barca, a trendy bar in the Castlefield basin of Manchester. Famously once owned by Mick Hucknall, it has recently returned to the cask beer fold and so is now back on the real ale...
