==Logo==

The PW logo was originally drawn by site founder [[User:Josikins|Josikins]], but was later improved upon and animated by a user known as [[User:Shpongulate|Shpongulate]]. It was later overhauled, redrawn and animated in a more professional style by [http://meredithlaxton.com/ Meredith Laxton]. The original symbol, however, was created by the late theoretical physicist [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Archibald_Wheeler John Archibald Wheeler] on page 209 of his 1983 paper [http://psychonautwiki.org/w/images/3/30/Wheeler_law_without_law.pdf Law Without Law]. This symbol exists to serve as a visual representation of the most profound subjective effect component found within the entirety of the [[Hallucinogens|hallucinogenic]] experience, a state of [[unity and interconnectedness]]. The eye represents an observer and the line directly opposite represents that which it perceives within the "external" environment. The two sections are connected to each other via arrows to demonstrate that it is a singular and unified system in which the observer's identity is not separate from that which it perceives.
