In this first episode of THE RE/AL/IGN, I talk with Gordon White (runesoup.com) about his latest book, Ani.Mystic: Encounters With a Living Cosmos (from Scarlet Imprint). We discuss animism and the difficulties of translating its expansive world into the Western materialist-reductionist framework, and end with advice on custodianship and creating sanctuary.
Here are links to thinkers and books also referenced in this episode:
Paul Kingsnorth (“The Fourth Revolution”)
Marshall Sahlins and David Graeber (On Kings)
Judith O’Grady (Gods-Speaking)
The full video and audio versions are available now to paid subscribers of From The Forests of Arduinna and also to supporters of Another World. They will be released to the public 18 November. The link for the podcast version is below.
Thanks for watching and listening, and please tell me what you think!
