#ErikDavis: "There is a reason that #esoteric things were esoteric throughout the history of #culture and #religion, and it is that they are not for everybody, at least at the stage most people are, trying to just make a living, trying to keep their families together... because a lot of these esoteric practices and experiences, have a kind of #deconstructing quality, they pull the rug out from under you, they show you a multiplicity world, sometimes god is everywhere, and it is pretty groovy, but it can be, in someways, #unsettling."

Fans of Terence McKenna, Robert Anton Wilson, and Philip K. Dick might enjoy this book, which explores their weird (and weirdly similar) experiences in the early 1970s: the McKenna brothers' La Chorrera experiment, Wilson's Chapel Perilous, and PKD's 2-3-74

"#ErikDavis es uno de los mejores analistas contraculturales que se puedan leer. Un #antropólogo capaz de enlazar códigos sumerios encriptados en un viejo papiro de 4500 años antes de Cristo con el método de un eco-hacker brasileño y la cantidad de beats utilizados por un DJ belga durante la misma noche en distintos clubes.

Su primer libro, #TechGnosis, publicado en 2004, es una biblia que conjuga “mito, magia y misticismo en la era de la información”."
