My article on "Esotericism and Democracy" just got published in Portuguese translation in Brazil.
Here’s the cover of my new book. It will come out this spring.
Necessary reading. Having seen the Chilean writer Benjamin Labatut speak at the Nexus conference in Amsterdam, I ended up devouring his two books in quick succession: When We Cease to Understand the World (2021) and The MANIAC (2023). Extremely scary, deeply impressive, and strongly recommended.
Blue sky? I saw it in Egypt a few weeks ago. I’d love to see it again.
