Club culture

Owen, Frank. Clubland The Fabulous Rise and Murderous Fall of Club Culture. New York St. Martin s Press, 2003. A detailed account interweaving the lives of the major players responsible for the club scene in New Yark in the 1990s, which featured drugs such as ecstasy and Special K (Ketamine, a veterinary anesthetic), as well as money, extravagant behavior, and crime. 

Ecstasy use originally was associated with certain subcultures, such as people involved in New Age spirituality, the dance club scene, gay men, followers of the Grateful Dead, and college students. This is no longer the case, as ecstasy use has become more mainstream in popular culture.

The publication of the report Limits to Growth (4) by the Club of Rome had a major impact on thinking about the environmental impact of our cultural development. Under the assumption that the five basis elements of this study— population, the production of food, industrialization, pollution, and the use of nonrenewable resources—will keep increasing exponentially, they showed that, if unchanged, this would lead to enormous problems, as soon as the 21st century. The social consciousness of the problems caused by unlimited growth of these elements was greatly increased by this report by the Club of Rome. 

The live music scene was going off. There were discos, there were dance clubs, there were endless endless parties, but dance party culture as we know it was just a whisper. 

H. sermta is a club moss fem that is distributed worldwide and grows in the forest, shrubbery, and roadside in the region at an altitude of 300-2700 m. It has a long growing period (8-15 years) and low HA content (in our experience, 1 ton dried whole plant yielded 70-90 g HA). So, the source of HA has been an obstacle to large-scale application of HA and its active derivates. Many scientists have tried to resolve this problem with the methods of synthesis, tissue culture, genetic engineer, or plant cultivation in the last decade. However, they did not successfully create a new HA source to replace of the natural plant thus far.
