…and Wilhelm Reich and the suppression of that information and parentite 451 atmosphere around his writings. Yeah the I got interested in Wilhelm Reich when they burned his books. I hadn't even heard about Reich this was back in 1957 that was 30 years ago.…
…only burned by the government but since the government has lifted the ban and allowed publishers to republish Reich's books, the Wilhelm Reich Foundation has refused to allow this one to be republished. They don't want this one out. Now it's the reichians…

…Reich. You see there's many aspects to the Reich case but I like the one simple way of looking at it is: in 1952 Wilhelm Reich was the first one to announce that no peacetime uses of nuclear energy would do the human race any goddamn good at all.…
…died, to quote a e Cummings. And with that scientific, with that degree of scientific refutation, everybody lost interest in Wilhelm Reich. I mean you can't argue with that kind of scientific proof. The inquisition settled the Galileo question that way at…
…a helpless infant at a time like that when they're just born how can these fucking doctors do it well as Wilhelm Reich said, nobody can recognize an emotion in others unless they've experienced it themselves. Most doctors in this patristic and armored anal…
…How do you do that? Well that was a hard one and it took a while to begin to find answers to that. Wilhelm Reich pointed out that scientists can be so armored that they literally will not perceive what's in front of them. Reich uses a motto…

…I've been optioned about three times on illuminatus, once no more than three times once on masks of the illuminati and twice on Wilhelm Reich in hell, which is a play that would very well adapt to a movie. I think it would make a smashing movie and…
…repeating Leary. What Leary in his first book called transactions, Byrne called games by the same time Leary started calling them games Wilhelm Reich, which just goes to show the effects of censorship. I was reading a lot of psychology I always have but I…
…therapy. One of the founders of gestalt therapy, Frederick Peierls was very heavily influenced by Krzyzewski, as well as by Wilhelm Reich by the way. And I think ethno methodology Garfinkel never mentions Krzyzewski, but I don't think Garfinkel could have…

…believe it. They have the same expressions, the same accents they walk the same way this whole mechanical man bit that Wilhelm Reich analyzed in the mass psychology of fascism. And when the train stops at a station they have secret policemen get off…
…enough to remember that the type is set and it's time to start printing the books or something like that. They will shortly appear. Wilhelm Reich in hell, which is a play that I wrote which has been done in Dublin and will probably soon be done in New…
…in that state for enough years you gotta get out of the beta state occasionally or you'll end up like Nixon. Yes did Wilhelm Reich discover an alternative form of energy? I've been asking myself that question for 30 years. I'm not sure. What I am sure…

…scenes in the war movies the violence scenes. Band music sitting in church that organ music is really tremendous. No seriously Wilhelm Reich in the mass psychology of fascism has a little bit about the effect of this organ music it's quite powerful…
…up yet. Yeah this is going on. One question I do want to get cleared up and you talk about it in your introduction to Wilhelm Reich in hell. I need to know it's been a burning question since I first read it. Oh wow, that one really came out of left…

…apparently knock on scientists attempting to study parapsychology and psychic energy. What's going on? Well let's start with the case of Wilhelm Reich. Back in the 1950s Reich claimed to have been able to measure a specific life energy. I've got no reason…
…uproar in defense of him. I didn't realize how controversial his type of research was. You mentioned a lot of the Wilhelm Reich case. Talk about sex, talk about drugs and nuprients it's canceled. Your scientific freedom is canceled. Those are the two…

…to what you say here, would also include large parts of the scientific community, and the three examples you give are Wilhelm Reich, Velikovsky and Tesla Nikola Tesla. Would you want to talk about what happened to Reich a little bit? Reich is the…
…books. Timothy Leary made himself wildly unpopular and got railroaded into jail for five years but they didn't burn his books. Wilhelm Reich really seems to have touched a nerve of the republican administration at that time and also a nerve of the…
…I tuned in late and how is it that Reich is being talked about this evening? Well I wrote a play about Wilhelm Reich which has been performed at the Edmund Burke theatre in Dublin and recently was performed in Portland, Maine where Reich stood trial,…
…prison as a public menace for creating confusion. Somebody else has suggested they should all be shot. Back in the 1950s Wilhelm Reich was doing research which the United States government not only didn't want to listen to it didn't want anybody else to…

…for reality is what you can get away with? Not yet excuse me I'm sorry, not yet. Not yet there is an option on Wilhelm Reich and how that may be coming out as a video, but that's an option that hasn't started production yet. Okay and my other…

…Reich in hell oh I I thought I hadn't heard of it because I was illiterate, not because it was new. Is it about Wilhelm Reich? It's in two parts. It's an essay about Reich which is also an essay on the predominant forms of fallacious thinking and how…

…I wanted to thank Mr Wilson for all of his works, for being a voice of agnosticism and intelligence, and in re reading Wilhelm Reich today, I was struck by the line by the ringmaster where he is asking Reich to drink of the water of reality and…
…od on garlic. Yeah, the whole case for gonzo science, which I've been fascinated with ever since they burned the books of Wilhelm Reich I wanted to know how did it happen in a country where the constitution says there'll be absolute freedom of speech and…

…government is doing most of the time. What about free energy research, that sort of thing you know follow ups to Tesla or Wilhelm Reich all that I mean it always seems interesting and exciting and the people I know who have ever worked on that stuff…
…at all. But that's hardly surprising. Tim told me once that it was a turning point in his life when the books of Wilhelm Reich were burned in an incinerator in New York in 1957. I don't know how many people here are old enough to even remember…
…point in my life too. It actually happened even before they started testing urine. They seized all the books of Dr Wilhelm Reich from the argonne institute press which published them. They took all the books, put them in a garbage truck, drove them…
