Description:

On this episode I welcome back my friend Erik Davis to talk about how the grassroots values and DIY ethos of Generation X could provide an antidote to an ailing culture that has been polluted by corporate takeover of media and the internet.

Erik Davis, PhD, is an author, award-winning journalist, and popular speaker based in San Francisco.

He’s the author of many books on technology, esotericism and American subculture but his first and best-known book is TechGnosis: Myth, Magic, and Mysticism in the Age of Information, a cult classic of visionary media studies that has been translated into five languages and most recently republished by North Atlantic Press.

He hosted the podcast Expanding Mind on the Progressive Radio Network for a decade, and earned his PhD in Religious Studies from Rice University in 2015. He currently writes the Substack publication Burning Shore and frequently hosts events at the Alembic in Berkeley California.
