“The time has come to go out of your mind are you ready Ralph? Are you ready to die and be reborn no. no, first you must be in a state of grace first you must examine yourself in this mirror of confession what do you see there? Your personality, all your goals and your fears, little ambitions, the chess game of your life you have to check that … and then that other side of you, Ralph that dark, unconscious all those animal impulses … must be checked you cant take that, on the billion year voyage to God are you ready?“ -Dr. Timothy Leary
Billion Year Voyage is a collaborative project between Jerstin Crosby and David Colagiovanni exploring the idea of the web as a psychedelic condition. The project references campy mystism, vision quests, hallucinogenics, and the transformative nature of technology. At www.BillionYearVoyage.net you can observe a being frozen in a perpetual state of nirvana.
