Entheogenesis Australis Conference 05

Entheogenesis Australis 05 - Entheobotanical and Shamanic Plant conference

Due to the success of the ‘Entheogenesis Australis’ conference in June 2004 we are announcing our plans to step things up a notch for 2005.
We have a few ideas for the conference that we would like you to consider and we would greatly appreciate your feedback.

Proposal for ‘Entheogenesis Australis 05’:
Location: Private Camp at the Foothills of the Grampians
Duration: 2 days
Activities:
- (1st day)- Talks/ Presentations
- (night)- Party
- (2nd Day) Workshops, Market/ Trades

Some benefits of using the Grampians site.

- plenty of space (for activities, stalls, fun etc)
- privacy (no distractions or interruptions)
- beautiful energy
- cabins and camping area on the conference site
- relatively close to S.A (so more people from Adelaide & can attend)
- We can get a little silly, get a little loud, perhaps even naked… who knows these are Ethnobots after all

So if you could take the time to do our survey and also suggest any speakers or other useful comments we would greatly appreciate it.

See the poll .

Thanks for posting Ronnysimulacrum, but your link actually infringes posting guidelines for this forum as it is possible to link to sources for plants etc. through the 'forum home link'. Unless the other other mods of this forum are willing to make a special exception, I'm sorry, but you'll need to remove the link.

Regardless of the semantics of legal and illegal substances, this posts is bordering on advertising spam.

Would it not be prudent to post a list of the proposed conference speakers and the range of activities? (to support this topic being hosted in the Drug Discussion forum). If you're after input on what subjects to address or what speakers to invite, then I think a different tact than effectively 'flyering' the forum is required.

i.e.: What/where was Entheogenesis 2004? (for those people who werent there). What made it such a success? What do you hope to achieve at Entheogenesis 2005?

If this conference is a music festival like Earthcore with assorted 'cultural' stalls and people etc., then this topic is best suited for the Australian Events forum.

'Regardless of the semantics of legal and illegal substances, this posts is bordering on advertising spam'

- maybe, if it was a conference to profit someone, but it is not, proceeds from last conference are being used to fly down a speaker this year.

I am really trying to probe people that went last year or have known of it over the last 5 years or so, and get some data to help make some decisions.

'If this conference is a music festival like Earthcore with assorted 'cultural' stalls and people etc., then this topic is best suited for the Australian Events forum.'

It is a conference, not a festival, we expect like 50-100 people to come and site together to talk about plant drug, the law and so on. And when we go official it will be under Melbourne events.

I would have thought people around here would embrace a physical space to meet up and swap info and legal highs.

I must be wrong, sorry for wasting your time.

Cool, now we are geting somewhere

EGA was know as Mini Eb up till 2 years ago, so some of you may know it by that name.

We are going to have so much fun this year, out in the hills

Sounds great!

Good luck with it all.

Please post details when you know more.

We will

hope to let you know some of this years speekers soon:D

do they include albert hoffman?

Sorry, not this year,

now that would rock

Well we have been receiving lots of emails from speakers and the like. I have not got a full list yet and still have lots of people to confirm and get back to. But I can say that Carl T, David Cameron and Michel B are defiantly speaking. As well as lots of the other regulars and some new people to.

If you are interested in speaking or have a suggested speaker please drop me a pm.

Can anyone from the public come or do you need industry involvment/qualifications?

Anyone can go I went to the one last year held in Belgrave

The last Conference was excellent. Many intelligent and enlightening speakers provided a vast source of knowledge. I was very much amazed by the turn out and vibe.

Can't wait for the next one. These conferences definetly have a very special feel about them. From a scientific stand point you could compare these conferences to the Mind States ones held in the US. One of the few things I find are worthwhile in the US. (hehehe, sorry about my personal opinion, I just can't help it )

Gook to know you are had a good time at the last one Leprechaun. will be seeing again this year.

Will be posting all the official info soon, but this is the basics info you need.

It will be $55 at ticket for the Two day conference (including free camping on site).

The date will be June 25-26 at the Grampians

Hope you can all make it down, more info ASAP.
