Perfume on the Radio
The Doors of Perception
“The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science” said Einstein. And this week we ask ourselves: what lies on the fringes of human awareness? What do we miss when we focus only on the obvious? This week’s episode explores practices, stories and experiences that lie in the outer limits of human perception, from trance states to witchcraft, from hauntings to abductions to sensorial trickery.
