Learning and Reimagining the Tarot: First Card – The Hanged Man

By Giania • Jan 24th, 2010 • Category: Featured

Hot: This first card was challenging. Back on the 13th, when I first set down my intentions for this project, I thought I had a pretty good idea of what I wanted to do. I spent the next ten days reading things, assimilating concepts, arguing with myself, and cutting up magazines with the thought of [...]



Learning and Reimagining the Tarot: Introduction

By Giania • Jan 13th, 2010 • Category: Featured

Hot: The premise behind this project is very simple: Choose a Tarot card (only shuffling for the first draw). Dissect the visuals on the card and write down their most basic symbolic elements (from opinion/personal preference). Look up details of that Tarot card from tarot books, 777 and other cross-cultural references. Create a visual and/or [...]



Author, Blogger, & Theorist Mac Tonnies Dies

By Giania • Oct 23rd, 2009 • Category: Fnord

Hot: Skimming through my feeds this morning, I was shocked to see this one from John Brownlee (of Ectomo): I’ll miss @MacTonnies. Despite being a UFO kook, he was one of the nicest guys ever, and we emailed several times. http://bit.ly/2cjqST ~ twitter.com/drcrypt UFO Mystic has reported that Mac was found in his apartment, deceased [...]

You Are in Athens

By AmHm • Jul 23rd, 2009 • Category: Fiction

In the very early morning in the fall of 1979 a particular beach along the Aegean Sea in Athens is nearly deserted. You have not yet slept, as your crewmates have gotten ahold of your judgment once again, and you have been out all night. But you are alone now, and the soft pink horizon gives context to your solitude. You stroll the shoreline, smoking a cigarette, thinking of home and taking stock of the day ahead of you, when, in an instant, your life changes forever.



why your social media guru is an asshole & a liar OR how to succeed (or not) with your internet presence

By Giania • Jun 30th, 2009 • Category: Internet Tools

Hot: Author’s Note: Some editing may apply to the article below. This article was originally 2 hours worth of unedited vitriol, inspired by the inordinate amount of time it takes me to remove spammers from my follower list on Twitter. (I block because I care about the health of the network.) I would like to [...]

Hot: Stuff stuff stuff! Subscription to Hi-Fructose It’s delicious just like the house of crepes I first read it in! Sewing machine? I’m a little torn over this one because I’m not sure if I’d honestly do more sewing if I had a sewing machine. The World Ends With You I’ve heard so many wonderful [...]

By Giania • Mar 30th, 2009 • Category: Dream Log

Hot: Technically I had way more interesting dreams over the weekend, and there was much more to the dream from which this exceprt is from, but dreaming a conversation with David Bowie, however cursory, is fucking sweet and I felt I should share. I was walking through a corridor and came through a door to [...]
