I dreamt I was at a party and Aldous Huxley was there

@MarkPaul I had another one where I was at this lavish party hanging out with McJagger, I often dream of huge parties.

@reflectingmonkey Don't quote me on this, but I think we have a TV series on our hands. Put on your best suit; we're going to pitch this to the networks.

@Eyeamhere you must have heard of the band "the doors"? that name comes from a book by Aldous Huxley "the doors of perception". but his most popular book is probably "a brave new world", about a dystopian future, a statement on modern civilisation.

@reflectingmonkey I read Doors to Perception but never knew it's where the band got their name!

@fun4us2b he was serious, deep, passionate, thinking carefully of his words, like he is in every interview I ever saw of him. he pretty much always has the same tone of voice.

@fun4us2b I would love to read more stuff from him, I only read brave new world and doors of perception.

@reflectingmonkey The Genius and the Goddess is not to be missed...It's very accessible and has a lot of good stuff about human relations in it. Crome Yellow is harder, but I think beautifully written. Point, Counterpoint is really heavy, not an easy read, but unforgettable, however, might be lightly dated now.

@Zaphod42 The author of [i]A Brave New World[/i]. He also hated George Orwell 🙀

@JupiterDreams Right! Great book, although of the books I’ve read written about dystopian futures I like This Perfect Day the best.

@SStarfish he wrote "the doors of perception" and "a brave new world", the band "the doors" took their name from his book. a smart, facinating guy. there are old inteview with him on youtube.

oh @reflectingmonkey
