A long time ago, before I was involved in ceremonial magick I made a tea called ayahuasca. It is an herbal tea generally used by shamans in South America to purge people of their spiritual demons and parasites. The main chemical in this drink is Dimethyltryptamine, or DMT. It is the chemical secreted in your…

I read an essay called The Aesthetics of Failure: ‘Post-Digital’ Tendencies in Contemporary Computer Music by Kim Cascone. Since then, I have dedicated my life to destroying convention in all senses. Shortly thereafter, I watched a documentary on a musician named John Cage. He espoused a philosophy called indeterminacy, which is pretty much Taoist thought applied to…
Many ceremonial magick authors suggest practicing yoga so as to control your mind, and to be in a constant state of meditation. It helps you to create the psychodrama. The idea in general is that you want to be in some sort of trance while performing. However, there are various forms of gnosis. Peter…
Have you ever looked at the sky and shouted “Why?” Have you ever looked for hope and only found despair? DADA does not speak. DADA does not listen. DADA does not exist. DADA breaks the circle.

This is a banishing ritual using philosophies I’ve outlined in this article on technomancy.

I will explain more in the comment below, but there will be similarities between this ritual and…
This will be my first in a series on Borderline Personality Disorder and its intersectionality with occult topics. We will discuss how this disorder affects the magician in her work and ways to cope. I am not a professional, but I am someone who suffers from BPD. I am writing from my own experiences in…
Technomancy is the art and practice of using technology to carry out one’s will. This isn’t something out of a Shadowrun campaign, but a practical application of ceremonial magick. I’ve been running Linux since I was 15 when my father gave me a copy of SUSE 9.3. It came with two thick books full of…
Dada is an anti-art movement from the early 1900s that turned its nose at the establishment. It ignores aesthetics. It is anti-art, which means that it represents everything art isn’t supposed to be. Dadaism breaks convention, and means to offend the senses. If magick is the “Science and Art of causing Change in conformity to…
It was early 2011 and I was a mess. I was overdosing on synthetic marijuana (white rabbit) on the regular and my marriage was falling apart. I was making my own absinthe and my own ayahuasca. The early ’10s were a fun time, but probably also the weirdest time in my life. However, I am…
