Movie Description Scientist, philosopher, New Age guru, conspiracy theorist, comedian, sci-fi writer: Robert Anton Wilson is all of these and more. Impossible to pin down or label, he is without a doubt one of the most distinctive and unconventional minds of his generation. With over 26 books to his credit, he is best-known for his seminal ILLUMINATUS TRILOGY, a sprawling, philosophically diverse, conspiracy-oriented piece of science fiction that generated a movement of disciples in its wake. Wilson has also recorded a punk rock album, THE CHOCOLATE BISCUIT CONSPIRACY, and a comedy album, SECRETS OF POWER. This fascinating document, comprised of footage that spans 25 years of Wilson's life, provides insight into the anachronistic mind of Pope Bob, as he is known to fans. It features interviews with RU Sirius, Tom Robbins, Rev. Ivan Stang, and Paul Krassner, and an excellent soundtrack including music by Boards of Canada, Amon Tobin, Ognen Spiroski, The Supplicants, and more.
