Echoes

From Greenough's Crystal Voyager (1975) "You might be in there for only a few seconds---in real time---but in your head it goes on for hours. It is an experience that's hard to describe, riding inside of a big, grinding wave. Often you're riding so deep inside the tube, you don't make it out. You take a terrible wipe out. What matters is when you're in there, it's the time interval when you're inside the wave. Time enters space, a zone of its own. The only reality is what's happening right then". This movie is a must for lovers of the toob. Still only avaiable on VHS in the U.S. and UK version DVD it can be found. Not only the short "Echoes" is amazing. The Nat Young single Keel footage, George's 'DYI' lifestyle and gizmos keep this movie always fresh.
