From John Harrigan:

Ten Towers is an audio recording of Ten Magical people reading prose written especially for them by myself.

These people have been chosen because they are highly respected by the community they are a part of.

The Ten Towers is also a snap shot and attempt to comprise a state of the union address from the world of Occulture and Magic. This project is also my way of saying thank you to the people I care about. Giving something of myself in the creation of a piece of prose that will always belong to that person and that person alone. I do this because of how the magickal community has supported the work of FoolishPeople.

All Towers will also have access to the entire recording and everyone who works on the project and will be able to print and sell copies via CD. Any money made from the CD this way can be kept by the Tower who has printed and sold any CD’s. Towers can print as many cd’s as they like individually and then sell them. Each person designing the look and design, so as to create a modern day magical artifact. A limited edition specific to that Magical person, whomever they may be.

I have no idea how many of these recordings will get turned into artifacts until after the project is completed.

Tower number one is Danny Chaoflux. Danny Chaoflux is a Persian artist living in Portland OR, and the
founder of Portland Occulture. Hir main interests are crossdressing, dream travel, and ancient mysticism.

Titillation Lip and Nipple Balms, by Agent Provocateur

Seriously, if your gonna play it up this winter season, get your better half these little gems (bundled as one) from this popular European lingerie company. Use it wisely.

Viva Pi?ata, for the Xbox 360

I hate console games and the only game I like on the PC is Company of Heroes, but this gem has the perfect balance or addictiveness and appeal that anyone can enjoy. It’s like crack for kids and anyone that hates video games.

Spectacle, by David Rockwell & Bruce Mau

We’re all obsessing over Second Life and virtual communities, but it’s worth remembering the universal power of the town square, the arena, and the other very real places where we come together. The book to read about why we love to experience things together and publicly is David Rockwell and Bruce Mau’s Spectacle. It’s a coffee-table-size exposition of NASCAR, Burning Man, Hindu religious rites in the Ganges, and other glorious spectacles that people experience together.

Baraka, by Ron Fricke

Baraka is an incredible journey through 6 continents, 24 countries. It is a collection of high quality images, presented in a moving and compelling manner. Hopefully everyone you know has seen it, but, if not, smoke a joint and sit down to one of the most beautiful pieces of cinema ever made. It’s a nice reminder seeing as how Fricke’s next piece – the spiritual successor to Baraka – called Samsara, is set to be released in 2007.

The Griffin & Sabine Trilogy Boxed Set, by Nick Bantock

Few books are more romantic than this trilogy, nor more surreal. The legendarily popular trilogy of books containing the Griffin-Sabine correspondence literally contains the correspondence: postcards, front and back, and letters in envelopes pasted into the book, which the reader must open and read. Nick Bantock’s story was way ahead of the computer game Myst, with which it shares a moody allure. His artwork is gorgeous, and countless romances have been intensified by exposure to that of Griffin and Sabine.

More on peak oil, slave morality, shadow projection, alchemical questioning, disassociated resentment, morality vs empathy, the internet as sense organ, and ripping people’s hearts out.

Post-moral alchemical demigods, or just twisted by the dark side? A fine way to use a half hour of your life, methinks, as my apparent desire for exile from the arena of civilised discourse continues…

MP3 on Alchemically Braindamaged.

In the second half of our show on Philip K. Dick, the Vikings meander through the multiple mind states of our fearless author picking apart the events and aftermaths of what came to be known as the V.A.L.I.S trilogy.

We discuss the final work of PKD which, unfortunately, was never completed and how that project known as “The Owl in Daylight” shows PKD prophecizing his own demise 2 weeks before it’s occurrance.

Throughout his work PKD not only defined a new class of sci-fi hero – the delinquent savante – but also challenged our notion of what it means to be sane, what it means to be insane, and what it means to come to realize that our defining organism – the artist who created this whole mess of several worlds, the organism we all may be but fingers upon fingers of the same self within – may itself be as batty as the most batty amongst us.

MP3 on Viking Youth Power Hour.

Grab a drink and fill that pipe full kids, this week the Vikings indulge themselves in the greatest Science Fiction writer of our time and a modern day christian/gnostic prophet, Philip K. Dick. While you may be familiar with the many films adapted from his novels (Blade Runner, Minority Report and A Scanner Darkly among others) you may not be aware that in February of 1974 – around about the same time R.A. Wilson was having some strange visits from the Sirius star system and Tim Leary was busy bouncing his ethereal body up over the walls of San Quentin – PKD believed that a satellite, V.A.L.I.S, which might have been part of a Russian covert operation, part of a nervous breakdown, or perhaps even God itself, blasted a pink laser into his head. The subsequent effects of this experience left Dick speaking languages he did not know, accurately diagnosing illnesses he should not have been aware of, and living in two realities simultaneously…one as PKD, the other as an early christian under prosecution from the Roman Empire. What resulted for the rest of the world were two of the most unique and important science fiction novels in the history of the genre, “VALIS” and “The Divine Invasion”. AJ was our editor, satellite Viking Channel Null offers up our closing hymn.
