On the Mechanics of Creation
Molly Hankins, February 2026
What is vibrating from the void will manifest and what is not vibrating will not, but it shall still contain the seed for all that could be. Bentov also points out that the fertile void of pure consciousness is not a private void, but one that connects all there is. “Everybody and everything is made up of this vibrating void, whether you like it or not. Your thinking processes spread out and affect all Creation; there is no privacy, and at this point, it is too late to complain,” he wrote.
The phenomenon of quantum entanglement occurs when two or more particles, such as a pair of photons, become entangled, they remain connected and influence each others’ states even when separated by large distances. According to the book, this process is a mirror of how the Universal Mind creates its experience of “other” by first polarizing into what we understand to be opposites. To activate the creation of all there is, these two poles move away from each other, to opposite ends of the toroidal field surrounding the Creator that looks like a cosmic egg. “Once separated, they want to come together again, because opposite polarities attract each other,” Bentov wrote...
Between Nihilism and Salvation
Noah Gabriel Martin, March 2026
Despite what the romantics say, love cannot conquer death. But it’s still pretty great. And even though it brings pain, with each hurt we can learn to do it better and make it more enduring. Dancing cannot save us from the fundamental groundlessness of all meaning, but it can make it feel good to have a body and be alive. The little things can be transformative. Even if they don’t alter the essential character of existence, they can change the way existence feels; make it exciting and full of possibilities and significance.
The temptation to give up trying to make things better because ultimately we’re going to die, and ultimately all life will be extinguished at the heat death of the universe, and ultimately nothing really matters, is just as much an error as the temptation to believe we can find ultimate answers. You don’t need to solve these problems in order for that poem you’re writing, or that long lazy Saturday afternoon, or that campaign you’re working on, to be worthwhile...
Thank You, Francis! (1923)
Francis Picabia, February 2026
One must become acquainted with everybody except oneself; one must not know which sex one belongs to; I do not care whether I am male or female, I do not admire men more than I do women. Having no virtue, I am assured of not suffering from them. Many people seek the road which can lead them to their ideal: I have no ideal; the person who parades his ideal is only an arriviste. Undoubtedly, I am also an arriviste, but my lack of scruples is an invention for myself, a subjectivity. Objectively it would consist of awarding myself the légion d’honneur, of wishing to become a minister or of plotting to get into the Institute! Well, for me, all that is shit!
What I like is to invent, to imagine, to make myself a new man every moment, then forget him, forget everything...
Tetragrammaton on Basquiat
Continents collide, antiquity butts up against modernity, and a primal spirituality comes into conflict with an industrialized capitalism. Every inch of the canvas of “The Melting Point of Snow” is used deliberately, weaving a tapestry of biblical stories, themes of childhood, and contemporary culture. Through all exists a theme of healing, from the Ritalin trademarks and copyrighted drug names, to the description of the Eye of Horus and its benefits. The entirety of human history is fair game to Basquiat, and he manages to draw a line between disparate ideas in a single canvas that becomes greater than the sum of its parts...
The Symbolic Task and the White-Haired Man
Derek Simpson, February 2026
The one sacred rule for a psychomagic act is as follows: if it is prescribed it must be completed. You can, of course, give it a healthy dose of contemplative time before taking action — some clients have even waited years to perform their act. Considering the uncomfortable nature of some of these prescriptions, which regularly include instructions like “act out your own birth with a maternal and paternal participant” or “paint a self portrait with your own blood,” it’s understandable that a client might exhaust any and all other options first. But inevitably we find that in order to heal ourselves, in Jodorowsky’s own words, “we have to do something we’ve never done before — and the harder the better.”
Jodorowsky is a noted disruptor, and commonly referenced among lovers of the counter-culture for his groundbreaking contributions to the world of film. He has long been testing common assumptions on what heights we can and should aspire to in our art-making. Where David Lynch famously traded his paintbrush for a camera and saw clear potential for the motion picture to become the moving painting, Jodorowsky saw an even greater potential for the medium: to heal the ancestral wounds of humanity. It’s clear, in retrospect, that his earliest works for the screen, Fando y Lis, El Topo, and The Holy Mountain, all hold the seeds of psychomagic. Each of these films attempts to aggravate the viewer’s unconscious mind. He hopes to inspire permanent release from mass mental imprisonment. With his more recent autobiographical pictures, The Dance of Reality and Endless Poetry, the intention is streamlined. These two films are Jodorowsky’s attempts to heal his own ancestral wounds; they are two distinct acts of psychomagic, self-prescribed...
