Blue Meanies: A Brief History of Magic Mushrooms in Bali

From Indonesia’s Homegrown Zine, specialists in publications on the culture and history of early Bali tourism, Blue Meanies is a short illustrated history of Bali’s magic mushroom culture. It traces the rise of psilocybin use on the island from the late 1960s hippie trail through the 2000s mushroom warungs and online dealers, to its criminalization in 2014. Includes first-hand accounts from early travelers, vintage photos, and ephemera from Kuta’s mushroom bars.
