“The Chilluminati, in our 3rd year, present a 3 day open-air festival focusing on psychedelic music, art, and culture, all within the Earthdance concept.”
Even though it turned out to be a wet weekend, this was a truly outstanding event.
Robert Rich was a real treat to see. I got a bit of video from the end of his set:

UPDATE
Great party! Here’s the party review thread. Some great feedback there - thanks again Chilluminati!
Phantasmagoria FlyerPhantasmagoria Flyer
“The Phantasmagoria first emerged in the 1709s immediately following the French Revolution. New technologies of visual reproduction and new sources of light ushered in an era of visual illusions. These included entertainments of light and shadow that created not a simple image, but rather a total environment. By a variety of projection devices- moving the lantern to create effects of enlarging or shrinking of the image, projection of a wavering image on billows of smoke, effects of transformation through mechanical slides or anamorphic lenses- the projections appeared to come to life. These images could be presented as manifestations of spirits. The greatest Phantasmagoria showman, Etienne-Gaspard Robertson, held his performances on the grounds of an abandoned Capuchin monastery in Paris. He would invoke the spirits of the dead, display images of recent victims of the guillotine or newly deceased celebrities like Benjamin Franklin. Phantasmagoria soon became a world-wide entertainment suited to a modern consciousness: caught between doubt and superstition.”
