- Further_(bus) abstract "Further (also known as "Furthur") was a school bus purchased by author Ken Kesey in 1964 to carry his "Merry Band of Pranksters" cross-country, filming their adventures as they went. The bus was named by artist Roy Sebern, who first painted the word “Furthur” (with two U's, quickly corrected) on the destination placard as a kind of one-word poem and inspiration to keep going whenever the bus broke down.Beat legend Neal Cassady was the driver on their maiden voyage from La Honda, California to New York for the publication of Kesey's novel Sometimes a Great Notion. The trip was filmed by the Pranksters, but this footage wasn't released as a movie until the 2011 documentary film Magic Trip.Extensively customized with amenities such as a stove, refrigerator, and bunks, and painted by the various pranksters in a variety of psychedelic colors and designs, it featured a sound system with interior and external intercom and an observation turret made from a washing machine drum fitted into a hole cut in the roof.Furthur and its passengers' adventures were fueled by prolific psychedelic drug use.The bus is also featured prominently in Tom Wolfe's book The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test.The original bus lasted till after a trip to the Woodstock Festival in 1969. Once its historic trips had come to an end it was parked on Kesey's Farm in Oregon where it deteriorated over the decades. Kesey's family is now in the process of restoring/raising money to restore the original bus. Ken created a second Further/Furthur in 1990.".
