I talk with ethnomycologist Cullen Clark about his work describing two new Psilocybe species in Southern Africa and becoming the first outsider to observe and describe the use of Psilocybe species in African traditional medicine. Clark also provides an extended analysis of African cave art depicting mushroom use.
Cullen has started a patreon to help grow his research:
"Uncovering the Lost Knowledge of Southern Africa’s Fungi
Help Fund His Research: http://patreon.com/cullentaylorclark
For the past several years, I’ve been on a journey—one that has taken me deep into the heart of Southern Africa, tracing the forgotten wisdom of fungi in traditional medicine, ritual, and spirituality. This is a story buried in oral histories, carved into ancient rock art, and hidden in the manuscripts of early settlers. Now, as I enter the final year of my research, I need your help to bring this project to life." - Cullen Clark
