New autonomy series

A tradition of intentional and initiatic dreaming connects the sufism of Ibn Arabi and the Owaysi Order, medieval Kabbala, Taoist scriptures, Afro-Brazilian spirit-cults, Siberian shamanism, and early Christian "angel alphabets." This book deals with specific methods for inducing prophetic or "veridical" dreams, because this book has a purpose: the experimental achievement of non-ordinary consciousness through autonomous openings ("Initiations") to the world of the imagination.

Compelling and instructive tales of autonomous adventure and humorous mayhem from within the Dutch squatter’s movement of the 1980s. Accounts of playful and spontaneous intransigence, theoretic burlesque, strategies of disappearance, and narrative collage recuperate a situation that had been skewed to fit mass media’s general take on all things subversive.
