MEDIAINFO
John Cunningham Lilly (January 6, 1915 – September 30, 2001) was an American physician, neuroscientist, psychoanalyst, psychonaut, philosopher, writer, and inventor. He was a member of a group of counterculture thinkers that included Timothy Leary, Ram Dass, and Werner Erhard, all frequent visitors to the Lilly home. He often stirred controversy, especially among mainstream scientists. Lilly conducted high-altitude research during World War II and later trained as a psychoanalyst. He gained renown in the 1950s after developing the isolation tank. He saw the tanks, in which users are isolated from almost all external stimuli, as a means to explore the nature of human consciousness. He later combined that work with his efforts to communicate with dolphins. He began studying how bottlenose dolphins vocalize, establishing centers in the U.S. Virgin Islands, and later San Francisco, to study dolphins. A decade later, he began experimenting with psychedelics, including LSD, often while floating in isolation. His work inspired two Hollywood movies, The Day of the Dolphin (1973) and Altered States (1980). -- The John C Lilly Lectures dates/venues unknown 1. Matter, Energy and the Black Hole 0:58:56 2.

Inner & Outer Realities 1:00:16 Source: cassette tape Process: * original audio ripped to PC with a cassette tape to USB recorder * edited in SoundForge: * converted to mono as the original source was clearly mono * slight editing of pops/crackle, some trim of silences * numerous attempts at noise reduction since the tapes were EXTREMELY hissy A note on the origin: These came as a set of 5 cassette tapes that were gifted to me by a friend who'd had them for years. Despite years of searching, I can find NO RECORD of exactly when and where these were originally recorded. Based on the changes to his voice over time, it appears these were recorded in the 1970's or 1970's (as by the 1990's his voice had developed a marked slur). No internet record exists with a comprehensive list of his lectures, which is a shame, as he lectured extensively, all over the world, for around 3 decades. Warning: Despite all of the best noise reduction technology available to me at the time, these recordings remain VERY hissy, and the overall audio VERY muffled. One can still very much understand the lectures, I just don't want anyone to expect pristene audio quality
