Generation Hex Now Shipping

Just an excited note to all that the new Disinfo anthology Generation Hex is now shipping. I'm proud to be one of the contributors to this truly excellent volume. Here's the cover blurb:

If the modern world is crumbling, then magic is what’s growing up between the cracks. In Generation Hex, editor Jason Louv assembles a collection of dispatches from the edge—a generation of young adults who are inventing and imagining radically new directions for spirituality and human evolution.

Through critical essays and practical demonstrations of how a positive interaction with the magical and psychic undercurrents of human life can radically alter one’s existence, the young magicians collected in Generation Hex provide a collective blueprint for escaping the suicidal rut of modern life.

Generation Hex will be released everywhere on the Autumnal Equinox, September 22, 2005.

And check out these props:

'Wow, a book that gives the reader insights into how magic is actually lived. Generation Hex explodes with the energy and enthusiasm of its contributors: their highs and lows, their encounters with the weird and wonderful, the collisions of dream and daring with daily life. This book kicks major ass!"

– Phil Hine, author, Condensed Chaos and Prime Chaos

"As the Aeon of the fiery young god Horus gets off to an explosive start, Jason Louv has compiled these amazing true life adventures of fearless young magicians on the front lines of the Twenty-First Century Magical Renaissance to remind us that the only true and worthwhile rebellion is against everything you were ever told to believe. What is magic really? And how can it work for you? At a time of global change and crisis, this incendiary, inspirational book can show you how to step out of the turmoil, seize control of your own destiny and participate in the creation of a whole new world.

"These are the latest alumni of an Invisible College that grows more and more tangible with each passing day. These are the voices of the real Harry potters, delivering the urgent, supercharged manifestos of a new Ultraculture. This is their world and Generation Hex is your invitation to the Party that might just bring the house down."

– Grant Morrison, author, The Invisibles and The Filth

"Nothing could be more crucial at this moment in time than to create a manual of techniques for psychic and physical survival. Generation Hex reasserts the essential place of magic in our interaction with the universe."

– Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, cultural engineer, pandrogyne, lead singer, Throbbing Gristle, Psychic TV and Thee Majesty

Huzzah!
