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.
The Guardian runs a kick-ass photographic collection of “the bravest, maddest, baddest scientists the world has known, and the things they have done in the pursuit of knowledge and in the teeth of adversity”
including the guy who stuck his head in a particle accelerator and other self-experimenters such as Timothy Leary, Amanda Fielding.

Really stellar live performance by the Shpongle Orchestra: beautiful, trippy, entrancing music and nice video too!
Totally worth the full full 10 minutes… and check out Simon Posford’s very agreeable hat and the funky instruments Raja Ram starts playing at 6:52!
