Description


Bret Bernhoft is a Web Developer, who loves learning; especially when making applications for the global Web. He began his journey in technology with WordPress and Web Analytics. Eventually he'd like to work as an Artificial Intelligence Programmer. Bret has been a practicing pagan for about ten years, and his major interests are in technology and paganism, and their intersections into transhumanism. In this discussion, we discuss Bret's views on magic in the cyber realm, 'meme magic' and the parallels between magic in a cyberverse and other forms of reality. We discuss the ethics and experience of conducting ritual virtually, Bret's examination of early internet discussions, and the role Timothy Leary, Alan Watt and psychedelics have played in his approach.
