Camouflage Party- Update- Call for Your Favorite NATURAL High Techniques

Hello from the cult leader...

It's been a while... We've been underground, on the ground and up the trees developing new indulgences in the naaaatuuuralll high persuasions. There have been a few comments as to whether this cult is a humour project and to that I say YES, but that does not mean it is not also deeply sincere and realistic all the same. These are the concepts that policy makers should be making note of because these kinds of ideas usually lead to mass popularity eventually... but just to insure the embracing of idiosyncrasies doesn't drift out of sight, I will continue to try to keep it light while keeping it real. Basically, it's been a rocking summer. The cult made an appearance and some conversions in Portland, Oregon where we put on the very first official Camouflage Party at Rocks Box ; a protest in the form of rocking out in green space. It's not hurting anyone and more people should make the most of nature's offerings-... harness the power and plug it in and don't forget to wear some olive drab... "when you hear someone coming/you stop/ you'll blend in!"

If you want to be part of some cult activities happening soon in Archway, London send an email to: thecultoftheendorphin@gmail.com

We are looking for inspiration from natural high seekers in the form of some kind of instruction on how to achieve some of your favorite natural highs-preferably the type with no depressing comedowns... If you have a video or photograph or just a little description of something you enjoy please send it on over to: thecultoftheendorphin@gmail.com

It will be posted here and might be used in an upcoming intervention.

In the mean time keep high-kicking! I'm going to roll on something now.

The Cult of the Endorphin Seeks BAND Members for the Archway Chapter

CALLING ALL LOCAL MUSICIANS/HIGH ON LIFE TYPES!

To be a true member of the Cult of the Endorphin means that you ritualistically and routinely pursue natural highs that result only in positive effects.  Even though some drugs could be considered natural, they most often also get you low. When participating in official Cult of the Endorphin activities all members will actively put forth an infectious positive energy and genuine communal spirit. 

The cult ethos will be spread through interventions and organized events/activities.  Already inducted members will help spread the word and canvass for new members through various creative and infiltrative means.  We are on a MISSION!

Part of the mission spreading process involves making scenarios where it is virtually impossible to ignore the positive vibrations and hopefully so seductive that people will get all caught up and not even realize what has overcome them.  One key element in many of the proposed interventions is live music and more specifically, the official Cult of the Endorphin Band.  

The Band must function as the ultimate irresistible upbeat hook-like rebel call, the force behind what makes people do crazy aerobic things with their bodies and makes them want to howl and shout and let go of inhibitions.  The music must reflect the ideology of the mission of the Cult.  It should not be overly didactic or corny as they say.  It should be soulful-energetic-heart pumping and maybe even scarily big sounding.  The Cult band should have its own sound that will be unmistakably the Cult of the Endorphin!  

The Cult of the Endorphin- Jam Night!

A few moments from our first jam!

The Cult of the Endorphin has initiated a "Jam Night" at Byam Shaw School of Art.  You don't need a doctor to tell you jamming is good for the soul and most definitely leads to natural highs.
