74. The Magician and the Machine w/ Eric J. Millar & Mme. Vendredi

Lux Occult

Eric J. Millar https://substack.com/@ngbmo joins Luxa https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata to share some philosophical outlooks on the creation process, what it means to be a magician in the machine and about his newest book, WOMBAT. Despite the title, which stands for Waste Of Money, Brains, And Time, WOMBAT is a very cool collection of creative curiosity ranging from sculptural comics to blackout prose, surreal collages to asemic writing experiments. For the episode w/ in the episode, Mme. Vendredi https://www.instagram.com/mmvndri/ (who is NOT a hitwoman) shares some fascinating perspectives about working as a magician for hire and about the many considerations that go into performing magic on a professional basis. There are tracks from FAFO pt. 2, The Green Mushroom Project https://greenmushroomproject.com/ & We The Hallowed https://wethehallowed.org/ digital mixtape. Also hear news about The Green Mushroom Project and Project Spex, a new pop-magic working thematically based on the 1988 John Carpenter film, They Live. Project Spex will be formally initialized with the “All Out of Bubblegum” ceremony on Jan. 19th, 2024 on The Green Musheen Discord Server. Much Love!
