The untold story of Wilhelm Reich & the dawn of the sexual revolution. An illuminating, startling, at times bizarre story of sex & science, ecstasy & repression. Adventures in the Orgasmatron is the untold story of the dawn of the sexual revolution in America -- an illuminating, startling, at times bizarre story of sex & science, ecstasy & repression. In the middle of the 20th century, the United States became an adoptive home for dozens of expatriated European thinkers, who saw this rich, young country ripe for sexual liberation. One of the most left-field of them was the Viennese psychoanalyst Wilhelm Reich, a disciple of Freud's who had broken with the master. Reich's own approach was based on his theories of the orgasm & sexual energy, which he dubbed 'orgone energy'. Instead of the couch, he made use of a tall, slender construction of wood, metal, & steel wool, which he called the orgone box. A highly sexed man himself, Reich thought that a person who sat in the box could elevate their 'orgastic potential' ridding the body of repressive forces, improving sexual potency, & enhancing overall health. After World War Two, Reich's theories caught on among writers & artists, the early adopters of the counter-culture. Norman Mailer & Saul Bellow were amongst those for whom the orgone box represented a yearned-for synthesis of sexual & political liberation, & of physical science & psychology. Meanwhile, Reich himself faced one debacle after another. Albert Einstein heard him out before rebuffing him. The FBI investigated him as a Communist sympathizer: it turned out that they were hunting the wrong man. The federal government banned the orgone box & tagged Reich as a fraud. There were claims of sexual misdeeds, & bouts of Reich's own mental instability. This is the story of the blossoming of the 20th century's sexual revolution, & the unshackling of a repressed society, & sex before science. ...
