Substances, legal or illegal, they all have a story to tell. Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) also known as acid is a popular psychedelic with a relatively long history of use and research, and as such is known to be relatively safe* despite its extremely high potency. It is the archetypical psychedelic to which all others are compared, and remains in popular usage. Psychedelics are drugs which alter the perception, causing a number of mental effects which manifest in many forms including altered states of consciousness, visual or tactile effects. The psychoactive effects of LSD were first discovered in 1943 by Albert Hofmann a chemist for Sandoz. The artwork portrays a bicycle to suggest the day when the Swiss chemist Albert Hofmann dropped acid, and rode his bike home. Although LSD is purely synthetic, clues to its biological activity can be found by tracing the history of the fungus from which it is derived. Ergot of rye is produced by a lower fungus (Claviceps purpurea) that grows parasitically on rye and, to a lesser extent, on other species of grain and on wild grasses. It’s easy to be captivated by the world out there. It’s a fascinating place. It’s deserving of this attention. But what if we were to invert our focus and look inside, what would we find?
