Comments on: Hacking At The Roots http://www.alterati.com/blog/2007/07/hacking-at-the-roots/ After a long day, we know you can work up quite a thirst for tasty entrainment. Search no further. Alterati is the spot for home-brewed, 100 proof podcasts of the Alterati.com editorial team. In it you will find a delectable blend of original musics, audiobook and drama excerpts, interviews with artists and media theorists of the fringe, and hints of strawberry and motor oil.

Having just returned from Orb festival, I feel as though I've received a profound anthropological lessons on the core qualities that build communities that exist outside of time and space... The dance floor transcends notions of race and class, touching the primordial essence within (that is, if the music succeeds :) For what it's worth, I'd love to meet you out in the forest some day and toss some more ideas around.

Thank you for this, I needed it. I have been in a state of chaotic, confused limbo for around a year. It started last year at Burning Man when I first tried acid and reached a little bit of enlightenment. After that I have been searching for that experience again and again. I spent 5 months in Europe and the UK searching and looking, falling short and waisting lots of money. It was not all useless but I never got close to where I had been in Black Rock City. I feel like maybe my life is about finding my spiritual self. Fuck all of this consumerist reality forced upon me. I still am in limbo. I still don't know what to do. I feel like that hour of talks has helped me, thanks again, Love, Raven. I am waiting for you at Burning Man. Thank you for this, I needed it.
