About

Higher Genius is a documentary archive of mystics, visionaries, and altered states of consciousness — built around primary sources, edition notes, and the difference between what the historical record establishes and what later testimony interpreted.

The site is the canonical home for every episode published on the YouTube channel, plus source notes and bibliographies that the videos cannot host. YouTube remains the place to watch; this site is the place where the work survives, with citations and provenance attached.

For how we draw the line between documented, interpreted, and uncertain claims, read the method.
