Sometimes, it can be as minimal as a little repeating image (a UFO for example) stamped into each of the little respective squares/doses.
But while a large majority of the blotter acid that I had in my possession, back in the day, was simply on white paper, it’s also well known for having images printed onto it. The recreational use of LSD has often been closely associated with it’s application to perforated sheets of blotter paper. Here’s a slightly more detailed, if not somewhat bias and sterilized, breakdown of these events in the form of a video by PBS digital studios. That’s where the name “ bicycle day” comes from and why it’s a legitimate cause for celebration. It was this experiment that he documented, as the first person to ever truly hallucinate on the drug. The story goes that the availability of automobiles were restricted due to WWII, so, with the help of his lab assistant, Hofmann traveled home by bike and began tripping out of his gourd, during the process. Three days later on April 19th, he intentionally ingested 250 micrograms, not realizing that he would only require a small fraction of that, with the threshold actually being a mere 20 micrograms. Overwhelming as it was, he returned to his normal state after only a couple of hours. Although he first synthesized LSD on November 16, 1938, it wasn’t until 5 years later - on Apwhen the chemist decided to re-synthesize and re-examine his discovery, that he accidentally absorbed some of the substance and experienced it’s effects for the first time ever. He did so the old fashion way: by ingesting it. But what about the day before? What about 4/19? Have you ever heard of Bicycle Day? For the uninitiated, I can tell you that it’s just as historic of a date in the counterculture world, and one with a lot less discrepancy regarding it’s origins and importance.Īlbert Hofmann (January, 11 1906 – April, 29 2008) is the name of the late Swiss scientist credited as the first one to synthesize lysergic acid diethylamide (aka LSD-25) and documenting it’s hallucinogenic effects on the human body. According to several investigative articles, the real truth seems to be that it, most likely, originated around 1971 with a small group of high school friends in San Rafael, California who wound up becoming acquainted with The Grateful Dead, and it spread that way.
#LSD BLOTTER ART BIKE CODE#
It’s often attributed to being a California police code for a weed smoking violation (it’s not), or several other disproved/unverified tales and sources. often gets a bit murky, with a lot of confusion and false information about it’s origin. The details regarding the coining of the term 420 - or 4/20 or 4:20 or 4-20, etc. As many of you likely know, tomorrow is 4/20, which is widely celebrated as a day dedicated to puffing those chronic herbs - and, no doubt, by a less desirable segment of the population, the birth of one of the worst genocidal pieces of shit in history that ruined the Charlie Chaplin mustache forever.
