The Illuminatus! Trilogy is a series of three novels written by Robert Shea and Robert Anton Wilson purportedly between 1969 and 1971[1], and first published in 1975. The trilogy is a satirical, postmodern, science fiction-influenced adventure story; a drug-, sex- and magic-laden trek through a number of conspiracy theories, both historical and imaginary, which hinge around the authors' version of the Illuminati. The narrative often switches between third and first person perspectives and jumps around in time. It is thematically dense, covering topics like counterculture, numerology and Discordianism.

The trilogy comprises the books The Eye in the Pyramid, The Golden Apple and Leviathan. They were first published starting in September 1975, as three separate volumes, and in 1984 as an omnibus; they are now more commonly reprinted in the latter form. The trilogy won the Prometheus Hall of Fame Award, designed to honor classic libertarian fiction, in 1986.[2] The authors went on to create several works, both fiction and nonfiction, that further discussed the themes of the trilogy, but no direct sequels were produced. Illuminatus! has been adapted for the stage, and has influenced several modern writers, musicians and games-makers. The popularity of the word "fnord" and the 23 enigma can both be attributed to the trilogy. It remains a seminal work of conspiracy fiction, predating Foucault's Pendulum and The Da Vinci Code by decades.

This was first performed in liverpool in the 8o's

  • I'm interested to Ken's stage adaption as well!!!

  • @lilwil132 Yeah I find his sort of attack against the audiences taste, of... well, bad taste.

  • Hail Ken Campbell!!! Fuck the audience.

  • Anyone know if there's anywhere you can watch his stage adaptation?

  • It seems really weird that somebody like Ken Campbell is talking to people, who are ignoring him./chatting.. So rude.

  • Awesome dude, thanks for this video!

    All Hail Discordia!

  • Never mind the compere; the jabbering dope-addled cunts in the audience seem to be more of a pain in the arse.

  • who is that man introducing Ken? It would appear to me that he embodies all that is warped and misguided about the current counter-action. He seems to be mis-read, have poor public speaking skills, and have a blind ego that surpasses his surrounding environment. I would find this admirable if it weren't for his appeared lack of focus and incredible egotism. I actually find him to be quite disgusting. Anybody else agree with this? Hail Eris.

  • Fnord

  • u do realize that some people may consider the unsyncedness as a conspiricy. 4 me tho the crozbyness and matthew st seem 2 go down well.

    nice 1 4 this vid tho. bring on the trumpets!!! as the norm fad will be
