Curious to know if you've read Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco. It takes a satirical voyage into the occult in much the same way as RAW's Illuminatus! Even beyond RAW actually, in that he points to the danger of being taken too seriously when writing about this stuff. That's what happened to a friend of mine many years ago. He became obsessed with Illuminatus! which wasn't helping his schizophrenia one bit, although I may be confusing cause and effect here. I know RAW got a lot of unwanted attention because of that book, and so did the KLF, who based a lot of their music on his work. Got to be quite a problem to hear them tell it. Just wondering if you've run into any of that yourself?
Hello Matthew,
Curious to know if you've read Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco. It takes a satirical voyage into the occult in much the same way as RAW's Illuminatus! Even beyond RAW actually, in that he points to the danger of being taken too seriously when writing about this stuff. That's what happened to a friend of mine many years ago. He became obsessed with Illuminatus! which wasn't helping his schizophrenia one bit, although I may be confusing cause and effect here. I know RAW got a lot of unwanted attention because of that book, and so did the KLF, who based a lot of their music on his work. Got to be quite a problem to hear them tell it. Just wondering if you've run into any of that yourself?
