Interview with Laura Huxley by Bruce Eisner

Laura Huxley interview >

Laura Huxley, wife of the late Aldous Huxley, for whose novel Island Group is named was interviewed by Bruce Eisner. It was a crisp day in late November 1993 that I made my way up the maze-like roads to Laura Huxley's house, perched high in the Hollywood hills. I spent a delightful three hours there and I believe that the following interview is of utmost significance for members of Island Group.

Laura Huxley is the founder of Our Ultimate Investment. She wrote: You are Not the Target (Farrar, Straus & Giroux), Between Heaven and Earth (Farrar, Straus & Giroux), This Timeless Moment (Farrar, Straus & Giroux, Mercury House), and The Child of Your Dreams with Pierro Ferucci

Gerald Heard: toward a new future for mankind
Only rarely can a philosopher be called visionary. Most philosophers try to analyse the past or try to build systems of thought, but Gerald Heard was indeed a truly visionary philosopher: in the back of his mind he was always preoccupied with the future of mankind. His vision of the future was not utopian or full of fancy, but was envisaged by an accurate analysis of the history of human culture. Looking at the cultural history of our race and looking at our own psychological development, he came to the conclusion that they developed along similar lines of evolutionary growth. For him ontogeny (the inner state of our individual being) followed the same evolutionary blueprint as phylogeny (the development of cultural consciousness in our human race). (47.00)

Better living through technology: The impact of Leary's Exo-Psychology theory
In the late 70s and early 80s, Leary's model of the Eight Levels of Consciousness and his vision of a post-terrestrial existence free from all limits (free from social and political limitations, as well as the limits of space, time, and the body) influenced quite a few "psychedelic philosophers"(discussed below) and a considerable number of young people interested in altered states of consciousness. Many young people in the early 80s, however, were not only interested in the drug-aspect of Leary's theory. They felt that Leary, by including technology into his vision of the future, helped them to define the new generation they were part of. Leary's Exo-Psychology theory offered these people who had decided to "leave the flower-power 60s behind" a new way to live with technology, to make it theirs. In the eyes of these people, Leary resolved the dichotomy between spirituality (the "inner quest") and science/technology (the "outer quest"). In Exo-Psychology and Neuropolitics, he shows that technology is not intrinsically evil; it can have a liberating effect as well. In The Intelligence Agents, Leary suggests that we should look westward for change because the East is stagnating. Leary was the one who made young psychedelic trippers and anti-technology-oriented (ex-) hippies aware of the fact that drugs were only a part of the continuing evolution of the human species towards enlightenment, and that the evolutionary purpose of technology was to help us on our "spiritual path" towards freedom, enlightenment, and immortalit (47.00)
