Chapter One: The Emic Sociology of New Edge Celebrating Augmentation and Dissociation In the first editorial of the magazine Mondo 2000, founded in 1989 by Ken Goffman (1952) and Allison Kennedy in Berkeley, the editors describe the magazine as "New Edge, not New Age". As Goffman told me in an interview, with the term ‘New Edge’ he wanted to articulate a simultaneous embrace and rejection of New Age.21 Informed by the understanding that New Age is largely about the rejection of high-tech, the term New Edge expressed the dedication of the magazine creators and editors to explore New Age spirituality via ‘edgy’ technoscientific concepts and products. In this first chapter, I seek to understand how 'technology' and 'New Age spirituality' are made relevant to each other from the perspective of New Edge. What is it about 'New Age spirituality' that invites New Edgers to relate it to 'technology', and what is it about 'technology' that New Edgers deem related to 'spirituality'? And what kinds of 'technology' and what kinds of 'spirituality' are thereby related? Without seeking to answer this question in an all-encompassing way, in this chapter I focus in particular on the gnostic epistemology of New Age and the way this gnosticism is made to correlate with high-tech.

  • Exhibition Catalogue
    Cyberculture: The Beginning of the Modern World In the late 1980s and early 1990s something strange was happening. Early Virtual Reality and Internet were combining with house music, neo-psychedelia and cyberpunk fiction to produce a cultural movement that would herald the new hyper-connected world. Cyberculture: The Beginning of the Modern World is a exhibition of material from this era that explores this brave new world from the perspective of those who were there. The exhibition also marks the launch of the Nemeton Cyberculture Archive. The exhibition was curated by Sean Clark at Interact Digital Arts. it received funding from Arts Council England and support from the LCB Depot, Leicester. Many thanks to all of those who provided materials, expertise and encouragement. interactdigitalarts.uk/cyberculture Fractal Artworks Emerging from the mysterious mathematical world of 'chaos', fractals were Cyberculture's answer to tie-dye or the Paisley print of the 1960s. Were they art? Probably not, but they still looked amazing. The posters in the exhibition are originals by Gregory Sams, who opened the Strange Attractions fractal shop in London in 1990. The video clip is from The Fractal Experience, released on VHS by Prism Leisure in 1992. Re:evolution Terence McKenna’s ethno- botanic theories of human evolution made him the Timothy Leary of the 1990s. In 1992 The Shamen – at the height of their commercial success – recorded a Terence McKenna monolog and set it to electronic music. The resulting single Re:evolution reached number 18 in the UK charts. A poster of lyrics was included with the release.
