Taxonomy Of Illusion

Overview

Taxonomy Of Illusion --- 1993

From CD notes: An evening with Terence Mckenna at UC Santa Cruz, hosted by the student organization Millbrook West. Professor Ralph Abraham, the famous chaos theorist mathematician, informed and introduced Terence to the large bright audience. "Taxonomy" defined as classification, especially in relation to it's general laws and principles; that department of science or subject which consists in or relates to classification. Terence amusingly articulates by enumerating examples of the varied forms of illusions humans are entertained, intrigued and frightened by. This talk is a particularly anecdotal way to approach the study of imaginal, the illusive and anomalous.
