The Merry Pranksters were comrades and followers of American author Ken Kesey in 1964. Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters lived communally at Kesey's homes in California and Oregon, and are noted for the sociological significance of a lengthy road trip they took in the summer of 1964, traveling across the United States in a psychedelic painted school bus called Furthur, organizing parties, and giving out LSD. During this time they met many of the guiding lights of the 1960s cultural movement and presaged what are commonly thought of as hippies with odd behavior, tie-dyed and red, white, and blue clothing, and renunciation of normal society, which they ironically dubbed The Establishment. Tom Wolfe chronicled their early escapades in his 1968 book The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, and docume

  • Unter dem Namen The Merry Pranksters tat sich Anfang der 1960er Jahre eine Gruppe kalifornischer Künstler, Desperados und LSD-Befürworter zusammen, um mit einem bunt angemalten Schulbus, einem so genannten Art Car namens „Furthur“ (später „Further“), durch die USA zu fahren und LSD-Happenings zu veranstalten. Bei den so genannten Acid-Tests wurde die interessierte Öffentlichkeit eingeladen, die bewusstseinserweiternden und als fortschrittlich beschriebenen Wirkungen der damals noch legalen Droge auszuprobieren. Mitglieder der Gruppe lebten in der Kommune auf der Hog Farm. (de)

  • Prende il nome di Merry Pranksters (Allegri burloni) un movimento formato da un gruppo di amici dello scrittore Ken Kesey nel 1962, con base in California, rifacentesi alla filosofia Hippy. Si sviluppò nel periodo di transizione fra la Beat Generation e il movimento Hippie. Furono tra i principali fautori dell'utilizzo delle sostanze psichedeliche. Nell'estate del 1964, attraversarono gli Stati Uniti a bordo di uno scuola-bus decorato con disegni psichedelici, improvvisando concerti, reading e jam session e distribuendo LSD gratuitamente. (it)
  • De Merry Pranksters was een rebelse groep jongeren die zich eind jaren vijftig, begin jaren zestig vormde rondom Amerikaanse schrijver Ken Kesey. Ze zette zich af tegen de gevestigde orde en deed dat op allerlei buitenissige manieren. Afwisselend werd de bus bestuurd door Kesey en Neal Cassady: de schrijver die model stond voor Dean Moriarty, de hoofdpersoon uit On the Road van Jack Kerouac. Cassady was voortdurend stoned, reed als een waanzinnige, en bracht het gezelschap op de vreemdste plaatsen. (nl)
