Timothy Francis Leary (October 22, 1920 – May 31, 1996) was an American psychologist and writer best known for his advocacy of psychedelic substances. He was born in New York City and died in Los Angeles. During the period when LSD and psilocybin were legal in the United States, Leary performed tests as part of the Harvard Psilocybin Project, which resulted in the Concord Prison Experiment and the Marsh Chapel Experiment, respectively. Despite gathering valuable information, Leary and his colleague Richard Alpert were dismissed by Harvard University in the wake of a scandal involving the usage of such substances.
Leary felt that LSD had therapeutic promise for use in psychiatry and that it should be studied further. Catchphrases that advocated his ideology became famous, including “turn on, tune in, drop out” (a phrase coined by Marshall McLuhan and given to Leary by the late Edward O. Wilson); “set and setting”; and “think for yourself and challenge authority.” In addition, he published and talked often on transhumanist ideas such as space migration, intelligence enhancement, and life extension (SMI2LE), and in his book Exo-Psychology, he created the eight-circuit model of consciousness, which was later revised and expanded (1977). During the 1960s and 1970s, he was jailed often enough that he was allowed to see the interior of 29 different jails across the globe. “The most dangerous guy in America,” according to former President Richard Nixon, was Leary at the time.
