United States of Archonica, Vol. 1

Tuesday, September 27th, 2005

I set out earlier today to make an ad-banner for Jeremy’s book, but somehow it got out of hand and took on this whole other life of it’s own (sorry JP!). And I have to say, I’m really pleased with it.

I think I’m actually going to put together a whole series of these images, […]

Archon Financial

Tuesday, September 27th, 2005

While searching for artistic representations of archons (the gnostic bad guys), I happened across a company called “Archon Financial” which I thought was too ironic of a name not to post about (if you’re a gnostic weirdo, that is). They are owned by Goldman Sachs, and here’s their website. Hm, also here’s a bunch of […]

Napoleon’s Red Man

Tuesday, September 27th, 2005

I’m re-reading Brad Steiger’s paranormal anecdote collection, Out of the Dark: The Complete Guide to Beings from Beyond. He has a chapter called “Inner Earth Empire of Evil” which deals mainly with accounts of mysterious hooded figures, especially ones which appear out of the shadows in a bedroom, but also some interesting accounts of such […]

The Conspiracy Business

Tuesday, September 27th, 2005

Here’s a halfway decent article on PeaceJournalism called The Economics of Conspiracy Theory. It takes a very broad look at the industry of crafting and selling conspiracy theories as products. There’s nothing too mind-blowing in it, but I’d be interested in putting together a collection of similar articles and research. I know this is going […]

Best Supernatural TV Shows?

Tuesday, September 27th, 2005

I’ve been watching more television than usual lately. A lot of people like to boo and hiss when it comes to tv, but I don’t mind it now and then. Usually, I find that it cuts into time that I want to do other things in. But sometimes it’s a totally welcome change of pace. […]

Bob Dylan’s Electrical Treason

Tuesday, September 27th, 2005

I watched the Martin Scorcese documentary about Bob Dylan tonight, No Direction Home, or everything up to the last half hour, when I got a phone call. It was really awesome. Actually, I guess it was only the first part of 2, with the second airing tomorrow night. My favorite thing about it was how […]

Spiritual Nomads

Tuesday, September 27th, 2005

Cool essay on AmbivaBlog called Spiritual Nomads. Worth checking out for great passages such as this:
It’s for you hard-core wonderers and wanderers – my scattered tribe – that I want to send up a flare, pitch a tent, put out some desert rations. I don’t care what faith you were born into, what you call […]
