Psychedelic Love

One of our first lectures this month was on psychedelia and the inspirational era from posters to music. Another early lecture I though then the music of The Byrds came on and immediately woke me up (link below) along with the film' Dancing in the street - eight miles high' made it one of the best lectures i've ever been in. (very much worth a watch, it can be found in the university library)

Inspirational photo's

 

Love this photo (above) so much that it is now proud of place as the background on my phone and laptop.

 

One of my icon's from the 60's

I personally love the 60's and 70's and sometimes feel I was born in the wrong time, I grew up with all my brother's scooters in the garage and his parka hung up on his bedroom door full of badges. I remember sneeking into his room to listen to all his music on his record player. We both got our taste in music from my dad and his hippy past, I even stole a few of his clothes too from headbands to belts although his posters in the pictures below are still tucked away somewhere very safe in the loft.

 

 

 

(above) Check out his hand-patched jeans he brags about making himself everytime this photo is seen.

 

 

His posters and what they looked like in his cabin at night with his UV light strip he fitted himself.

 

My mother in the late 60's done up to the nines, this is how she looked everyday.
