Appreciate it!

Great conversation. I personally feel that what you're looking for is simply a rebirth of the ancient role of what we call an artist nowadays. Creating compelling symbols that cracks reality's supposed solid bases is the very practice of an artist when that role is not limited by capital. The point is,whatever the artist does or intends, the moment the work is shown, will it find anyone who's not capitalistically subjectivized?

[@pamelaholmes9572]

Depressing most likely but some of us work at not being subjects of capital

[@codycurtin2295]

Yes

Maybe you could be interested in my works. It began with a meta-horror novel in which the protagonist faces the demon of money in the factory where he works. Then I realised that with this symbol, I could navigate my subconscious, thus the collective subconscious so to say. So I jumped from horror to philosophy and schizo analysis and I bounce back and forth between what I call my «grimoires» and my cathedral: the Kyurensi Kodex. The K with two bars is a symbol to hate, to loathe the subconscious ruler of our world, to spit on the invisible hand of the market that pretends to feed, the unknown god of our primordial religion, a religion that even atheists believe in. And with my hate of what ruins what we love about the world, I imagined a potential line of flight out of money itself. That's the territory I colonize.

no, this is just a little solo project to curate my personal research about the imagination and politics

When I hear that synth from Epoch Philosophy I automatically pay attention. It has a John Carpenter vibe and those are movies I grew up with, like theater it gets my undivided attention.

Esotericism is not and has never been political.

These guys are communists. Fascists fight communists.

[@alisonfisher1877]

Everything is political if and only if you’re sucked into the brainwashing that steals attention away from understanding you can operate your own focus. There are vast landscapes to explore that are unsullied by public opinion and ideology. I second the notion from OP; esotericism is not political.
