The Principia Discordia (1963)
Can I recommend here John Higgs’ excellent book ‘The KLF: Chaos, Magic and the Band who Burned a Million Pounds’ [0]<p>It’s ostensibly a bio of the band The KLF (or the justified ancients of Mu), who somehow had a successful music career by taking discordianism as far as it could go. However, the book widens to Robert Anton Wilson, Timothy Leary, the Illuminatus and most of the second half of the 20th century.<p>If you haven’t heard of the KLF, they’re well worth looking into: after having a load of hits in the early 90s, they retired by machine-gunning the BRIT Award audience (with blanks), deleting their entire back catalogue and setting fire to all the money they’d earned.<p>[0] <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/KLF-Chaos-Burned-Million-Pounds/dp/1780226551/" rel="nofollow">https://www.amazon.co.uk/KLF-Chaos-Burned-Million-Pounds/dp/...</a>
