Imagining Cultural Metamorphosis

Utopian Cartography Interview [2019]

In this expedition, Neonn talks to Imagine Music & Arts Festival Producer Darin Leong about the phenomenology of conscious transformation at intentional tribal gatherings, the evolution of raving, the nature of sacred social ritual, transmedial psychedelic creativity, the origins of the myth of the rugged individual via theocratic colonialism, the ancient ancestral memory of tribal dance around a campfire, the age of self-discovery through the internet, the limits & potentials of politicization of festivals as vehicles for social change, utopia as a place where people’s needs are met so they can freely practice art & music, & lots more psychedelic activist philosophy.. 🎃
