Daniel Pinchbeck

Rick Strassman's four year study in the late 90s on the powerful entheogen N,N-dimethyltryptamine (DMT), as tested on human volunteers and their subsequent experiences, is explored.

An optimistic alternative to apocalyptic doom and gloom. Directed by E/A nominee João Amorim, Pinchbeck is on a quest for a new paradigm that integrates the archaic wisdom of tribal cultures with the scientific method. Rather than breakdown & barbarism, 2012 may herald the birth of a regenerative planetary culture where collaboration replaces competition, where exploration of psyche and spirit becomes the new cutting edge, replacing the sterile materialism that has pushed our world to the brink.
