TEDx Talk on transformational festival culture
The presenter may seem seem a tad hoaky at first, but bear with it because it turns into quite a lovely, poetic and emotional summary of the emerging, global psychedelic festival culture from Burning Man to psytrance. Might make a nice introduction for those who may not be familiar.

Liquid Sky & The Living Room, NYC 1994
From 1990 – 1999, Liquid Sky was raver headquarters for NYC. Downstairs was Satellite Records where we bought our choons, upstairs they sold LSDesign clothes and raver gear and often hosted art and DJ’s and had a lounging area. We would gather there to get on buses that took us to out-of-town massives. We were so young and enthusiastic! :D
The reporter takes us into a small rave at an underground venue called The Living Room, which is where I went to my first party.
Ahh memories.
