Who is the Master that makes the grass green?

This zen question was first posed to me by the great Robert Anton Wilson, to whom we must now append the prefix “late”.

I had the privilege of hosting and introducing him at a lecture at NYU back in May of 1990, a lecture entitled “From Psychedelics to Cyberspace” which was noteworthy for being the first public demonstration of VR technology east of the Rockies. Being able to converse, before and after the show, with him and Timothy Leary was a truly unique experience.

I’m sad, in a way, that he didn’t live long enough to the movie “The Number 23”, but I will happily note that he passed away on 1/11– which, of course, if you add 1+1, gives you 2, and if you add 1+1+1, you get 3. 23. Of course.

Hail Eris. All Hail Discordia.
