Salvador Dalí, marquis de Dalí de Púbol, est un peintre, sculpteur, graveur, scénariste et écrivain catalan de nationalité espagnole
La maison du peintre Dali est aujourd'hui un musée ouvert aux visiteurs, situé à Portlligat, près de Cadaqués. L'architecture est en fait constituée de plusieurs maisonnettes blanches de pêcheurs réunies, où l'on passe de niveau en niveau, ceci explique le nombre de cheminées.
Au programme, visite des pièces de la maison, aux décors variés et originaux, telles que le salon ovale, la chambre à coucher ou le salon jaune; visite également de l'atelier du peintre, de la belle terrasse extérieure et de sa piscine. La vue sur la mer est omniprésente, chère au peintre.
Dali s'est installé dans ce charmant endroit avec sa femme Gala. Le lieu est d'un calme reposant et on comprend le choix particulièrement judicieux de l'artiste qui a vécu là de 1930 à 1982. «Je me suis construit sur ces graviers : c’est ici que j’ai créé ma personnalité, découvert mon amour, peint mon œuvre, construit ma maison. Je suis inséparable de ce ciel, de cette mer, de ces rochers, lié pour toujours à Portlligat». La maison de Salvador Dali est avant tout un lieu où ont régné passion et amour durant plus de vingt ans.
Ces couleurs, ces rochers, ces odeurs mettront en éveil les sens de l’artiste et deviendront des thématiques phares de ses œuvres. Ainsi, l’îlot a inspiré au peintre la Madone de Portlligat (1949-1950) qui représente une sainte avec le visage de Gala, mais aussi le Torero hallucinogène (1969-1970) qui évoque la Vénus de Milo.
L'Amanite tue-mouches ou fausse oronge (Amanita muscaria), est une espèce de champignons basidiomycètes de la famille des Amanitaceae. Toxique et psychotrope, c'est l'un des nombreux représentants du genre des amanites, et certainement le plus connu. Originaire des régions tempérées de l'hémisphère nord, Amanita muscaria a été introduite accidentellement dans de nombreux pays de l'hémisphère sud, principalement comme symbiote des pins cultivés, et est devenue cosmopolite. Elle s'associe avec les racines de différents feuillus et conifères.
L'intoxication par Amanita muscaria n'est que très rarement mortelle. Cette espèce est surtout connue pour être hallucinogène. Son principal constituant psycho-actif est le muscimole. Le champignon a donné son nom à la muscarine, poison du système nerveux parasympathique qu'il contient en très faible quantité, et à un type de récepteurs cellulaires, les récepteurs muscariniques.
Plusieurs variétés ont été identifiées. La variété muscaria est la plus courante et la plus reconnaissable. Il s'agit d'un sporophore de grande taille, au stipe blanc et à l'hyménium à lames blanches, avec un chapeau couvert d'une cuticule rouge foncé, parsemée de points blancs. Les autres variétés, plus rares, diffèrent par la couleur du dessus du chapeau. Ce sont les variétés orangées guessowii, flavivolvata et formosa.

Amanita muscaria (L. ex Fr.) Hooker Fly Agaric, Amanite tue-mouches, Fausse Oronge Roter Fliegenpilz Cap 8–20cm across, globose or hemispherical at first then flattening, bright scarlet covered with distinctive white pyramidal warts which may be washed off by rain leaving the cap almost smooth and the colour fades. Stem 80–180×10–20mm, white, often covered in shaggy volval remnants as is the bulbous base, the white membranous ring attached to the stem apex sometimes becoming flushed yellow from the pigment washed off the cap. Flesh white, tinged red or yellow below the cap cuticle, Taste pleasant, smell faint. Gills free, white. Spore print white. Spores broadly ovate, nonamyloid, 9.5–10.5×7–8µ. Habitat usually with birch trees, Season late summer to late autumn. Common. Deadly poisonous. It contains many different toxins see below. Distribution, America and Europe.
This is one of the easiest species to recognize and describe, and consequently its properties have been well documented for centuries. The common name Fly Agaric comes from the practice of breaking the cap into platefuls of milk, used since medieval times to stupefy flies. It is a strong hallucinogen and intoxicant and was used as such by the Lapps. In such cases the cap is dried and swallowed without chewing. The symptoms begin twenty minutes to two hours after ingestion. The central nervous system is affected and the muscles of the intoxicated person start to pull and twitch convulsively, followed by dizzines and a death-like sleep. During this stage the mushrooms are often vomited but nevertheless the drunkenness and stupor continue. While in this state of stupor, the person experiences vivid visions and on waking is usually filled with elation and is physically very active. This is due to the nerves being highly stimulated, the slightest effort of will producing exaggerated physical effects, e.g. the intoxicated person will make a gigantic leap to clear the smallest obstacle. The Lapps may have picked up the habit of eating the Fly Agaric through observing the effects of the fungus on reindeer, which are similarly affected. Indeed, they like it so much that all one has to do to round up a wandering herd is to scatter pieces of Fly Agaric on the ground. Another observation the Lapps made from the reindeer was that the intoxicating compounds in the fungus can be recycled by consuming the urine of an intoxicated person. The effects of consuming this species are exceedingly unpredictable; some people remain unaffected while others have similar, or different, symptoms to those above, and at least one death is attributed to A. muscaria. This unpredictability is due to the fungus containing different amounts of the toxins ibotenic acid and muscimol according to season, method of cooking and ingestion, as well as the subject’s state of mind. Ibotenic acid is mostly concentrated in the coloured skin of the cap. This very unstable compound rapidly degrades on drying to form muscimol which is five to ten times more potent. Traditionally, where A. muscaria is used as an inebriant, it is the dried cap which is taken.

The Fly Agaric, Amanita muscaria, is a hallucinogen and must be considered poisonous. These attractive fungi often appear in groups and are a common sight in all kinds of woodlands.
De beroemde rood-met-witte-stippen Vliegenzwam (Amanita muscaria) komt algemeen voor in Noordwest Amerika, Europa, Siberië en Azië. Je kunt hem daar vinden onder naaldbomen, berken en eiken.
Hij groeit of in z’n eentje of in grote kringen (zgn. heksenkringen), in bossen en bosranden. Hij komt vaak voor in naaldbossen, in kuststreken en langs wegen waar naaldbomen zijn geplant.
De Vliegenzwam is historisch het meest wijdverbreide hallucinogeen ter wereld. Al duizenden jaren wordt het gebruikt door sjamanen, medicijnmannen en priesters in Azië, Afrika, Europa, Noord- en Midden-Amerika. Zij gebruikten hem voor religieuze doeleinden zoals het ontvangen van profetieën, het oproepen van geesten, communicatie met voorouders en het aanschouwelijk maken van een goddelijke onsterfelijkheid.
Er wordt beweerd dat de Vliegenzwam aan de wieg zou staan van vrijwel alle grote godsdiensten, en in symbolische vorm komt deze opvallend vaak voor in volksverhalen, sprookjes en alchemistische geschriften. De Amanita werd ook recreatief gebruikt, en krijgers (de Vikingen en Vedische Ariërs) gebruikten het ter verhoging van hun moed in de strijd.
Het belangrijkste bestanddeel is muscimol, dit in tegenstelling tot de meeste andere hallucinogene paddenstoelen waarvan het actieve bestanddeel psilocybine en psilocine is. Deze stof wordt pas geactiveerd na het drogen van de paddenstoel!
The American Eastern Yellow Fly Agaric mushrooms appear during periods of high humidity in conifer forests, often growing under white pine or eastern hemlock trees.
It’s characterized by white gills and stem, a white spore print, warts on the cap which easily wash or rub off, a membranous partial veil that leaves a distinct membranous mid-stem ring and remains of the universal veil seen as three small rings of tissue just at the enlarged stem base. The yellow/orange color, which often has a metallic shine, stands out among leaf litter on the forest floor.
All agaric varieties are poisonous and some have hallucinogenic properties. The North American variety is not a hallucinogen but is poisonous so do not touch or eat it.
The common name “Fly Agaric” refers to the fact that in the Middle Ages Europeans learned that the mushroom crushed in a saucer of milk would attract flies that would become stupefied and drown. In some parts of the world, Amanita muscaria is still used as an insecticide.

Hallucinogenic honey
Rhododendron honey can be dangerous, although it has a number of healing properties.
But if you eat too much of it, it can lead to death. A similar effect can be caused by honey based on chestnut and linden pollen.
A high amount of grayanotoxin can lower blood pressure, cause hallucinations.
Grayanotoxin is a type of neurotoxin found in some plants.
Grayanotoxins are produced by Rhododendron species and other plants in the family Ericaceae. Honey made from the nectar and so containing pollen of these plants also contains grayanotoxins and is commonly referred to as mad honey. Consumption of the plant or any of its secondary products, including mad honey, can cause a rare poisonous reaction called grayanotoxin poisoning, mad honey disease, honey intoxication, or rhododendron poisoning. It is most frequently produced and consumed in regions of Nepal and Turkey as a recreational drug and traditional medicine.

Datura stramonium (Solanaceae), known by the common names thorn apple, jimsonweed (jimson weed), devil's snare, or devil's trumpet, likely originated in Central America and it has been introduced in many world regions. It has frequently been employed in traditional medicine to treat a variety of ailments. It has also been used as a hallucinogen (of the anticholinergic/antimuscarinic, deliriant type), taken entheogenically to cause intense, sacred or occult visions. It contains tropane alkaloids which are responsible for the psychoactive effects, and may be severely toxic.
The fragrant flowers have a pleasing odour; are trumpet-shaped, white to creamy or violet, and 6 to 9 cm (2+1⁄2–3+1⁄2 in) long. The corolla, which is folded and only partially open, is white, funnel-shaped, and has prominent ribs. The flowers open at night, emitting a pleasant fragrance, and are fed upon by nocturnal moths.

Jimsonweed or Thorn Apple, Datura stramonium (Solanaceae) in the TWU Butterfly Garden, Denton campus
The genus name is derived from the plant's Hindi name, dhatūra, ultimately from Sanskrit dhattūra, 'white thorn-apple'. The origin of Neo-Latin stramonium is unknown; the name Stramonia was used in the 17th century for various Datura species. There is some evidence that Stramonium is originally from Greek στρύχνον, 'nightshade' and μανικόν, 'which makes mad'.
In traditional medicine is used to treat a variety of ailments. It has also been used as a hallucinogen (of the anticholinergic/antimuscarinic, deliriant type), taken entheogenically to cause intense, sacred or occult visions. The plant contains tropane alkaloids which are responsible for the psychoactive effects, and may be severely toxic.
In the United States the plant is called "Jimsonweed", or more rarely "Jamestown weed" deriving from the town of Jamestown, Virginia, where English soldiers consumed it while attempting to suppress Bacon's Rebellion. They spent 11 days in altered mental states. (Wikipedia)

L'haminoé hallucinogène a un corps allongé avec une fine coquille en forme d'olive au milieu. Ses yeux forment deux petits points noirs au milieu de la tête. Son manteau blanc est parsemé de taches orange à jaune orangé comportant parfois des ronds bleus ou violets diffus. Au niveau de la coquille le manteau est légèrement translucide et comporte des taches plus larges orange cernées de blanc. Cette partie est parfois verte dû à la couleur des algues microscopiques. La longue queue fait un tiers de la taille du corps.

Taken at SeeSeaCity. Could possibly be hallucinogen induced visions, and this didn’t actually happen. Maybe i need to stop licking random toads while out exploring.
This toxic but pretty fungus is apparently a favourite of the fairies. Amanita muscaria is a hallucinogen and must be considered poisonous.
After hunting all over the place we finally found some Fly Agarics growing along Docwra's Ditch on Dunwich Heath!
The classic fairy tale toadstool, Fly agaric (Amanita muscaria) is found in woodlands, parks and heaths with scattered trees, typically growing beneath birch trees or pines and spruces.
When young, Fly agaric it is covered by a white membranous veil, which rips as the stem pushes up and the bright red cap expands. The remains of the veil skirt the stem and also leave white, wart-like flakes on the cap.
The red and white spotted fruiting bodies can usually be seen between late summer and early winter. The mycelium of Fly agaric often forms a symbiotic relationship with the trees around it, wrapping around the roots and supplying them with nutrients taken from the soil. In exchange, the fungus receives sugars produced by the trees.
Traditionally used as an insecticide, the cap of Fly agaric was broken up and sprinkled into saucers of milk to keep the flies at bay. Fly agaric is now known to contain ibotenic acid, which both attracts and kills flies. Ibotenic acid, along with the other toxins in Fly agaric, muscarine and muscimol, have psychoactive properties. Despite serious safety concerns, fly agaric mushroom is sometimes used as a hallucinogen.
First of the year!
When they first emerge from the leaf litter of the forest floor, the young fruitbodies are covered entirely in pointed white warts. As the caps expand the red pellicle shows through until eventually the cap comprises mainly red skin with white warts distributed more or less evenly across its surface. Heavy rain or even contact with animals is sometimes sufficient to remove some or all of the white flakes from the cap of a Fly Agaric, so you may see some 'bald' specimens.
Not quite the Jimson Weed/White Flower No.1 painting by Georgia O'Keeffe that sold at auction in 2014 for $44.4 million but it is the beautiful flower of the Jimson weed.
Also known as devil's weed it has been used in various treatments of traditional medicine or drug abuse as well as a hallucinogen and deliriant that is taken entheogenically for intense visions.
Sagaminopteron psychedelicum
Origine du nom scientifique
Sagaminopteron : De Sagamin ou Sagami, baies au Japon (les auteurs du genre sont japonais) et du grec [pter-] = aile, plume ; donc l'aile de Sagami en référence aux parapodies développées.
psychedelicum : Le dessin vivement coloré de sa livrée fait penser aux dessins à la mode fin des années 60 –début des années 70. ([Psychedelicum] = psychédélique : relatif à un état de rêve éveillé provoqué par certains hallucinogènes comme le L.S.D.).
******************************************************************************
Origin of the scientific name
Sagaminopteron : From Sagamin or Sagami, berries in Japan (the authors of the genus are Japanese) and from the Greek [pter-] = wing, feather; thus the Sagami wing in reference to the developed parapodia.
psychedelicum : The brightly colored design of its livery is reminiscent of the fashionable designs of the late 60's-early 70's. ([Psychedelicum] = psychedelic: relating to a waking dream state caused by certain hallucinogens like L.S.D.).

The Fly Agaric, Amanita muscaria, is a hallucinogen and must be considered poisonous. These attractive fungi often appear in groups and are a common sight in all kinds of woodlands.
Absinthe, ‘The Green Fairy’, a green, licorice-flavored liquor derived from wormwood, was a popular drink in Belle Epoque France before WWI, especially among bohemians and Parisian creatives, including Verlaine, Van Gogh and Manet, who believed that it inspired creativity and referred to it as ‘The Green Muse’. The drink was so popular in pre-war Paris that 5:00pm was sometimes referred as ‘The Green Hour’.
Clergy, politicians and doctors viewed Absinthe as a major factor in French moral and physical 19th-century decline, driving drinkers (‘Absinthes’) to addiction, hallucination, insanity and moral degradation. A few sensational murders where the drink was supposedly a factor, and crusades by some doctors created an anti-Absinthe hysteria, a French ‘reefer-madness’, which led to the drink being banned in 1915. Following France’s lead, other countries banned Absinthe, including the United States, where it was illegal until 2007.
Absinthe does contain minute quantities of a poisonous hallucinogen, thujone, but the high alcohol content of Absinthe – 45-70%, is what makes the drink so potent.

Tom Petty croons about how he won't back down. A great tune. However, in this view we observe classic Santa Fe backing down. Backing down on the Topeka Railroad Daze excursion train to Lawrence I believe. It was a beautiful morning here in suburban Topeka (Pauline). I probably won't see this again unless I ingest some powerful hallucinogens.
