David Woodard (born April 6, 1964 in Santa Barbara, California) is an American postmodern writer and conductor.[1][2] He invented the concept and portmanteau word prequiem, which designates a musical composition to be rendered as its beneficiary lay dying.[1][3]
Woodard invented a fictional psychoactive machine called the Feraliminal Lycanthropizer.[4] At the end of the 20th century he fabricated replicas of an actual psychoactive device called the Dreamachine.[5]
Woodard is also known for his work with Nueva Germania, a settlement in Paraguay.[2] His German book of correspondence Five Years, coauthored by Swiss novelist Christian Kracht, describes some of the humanitarian work performed there.[6][7]
