Zach Leary, son of pioneering psychonaut Timothy Leary, is the host of “The MAPS Podcast” as well as “It’s All Happening with Zach Leary.” James Fadiman is an author and psychedelic researcher. During the Talking Art: Psychedelic Medicine event, the pair will discuss microdosing psychedelics—such as psilocybin and LSD—and the potential benefits of the practice, such as boosts to creativity and focus, as well as the history and politics of the countercultural movement. This event comes at the tail end of the “Surreal Sublime” exhibit at the San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art, where many artists have incorporated psychedelia into their work.
