I'm a bit biased towards this book as it's been one of my favourite things I've ever read. Want to read a discussion with a scientist about tests on plant empathy? Want to read about Grant Morrison's experience being abducted by 5th-dimensional beings, who showed him our universe was a 5th-dimensional being in a larval state? Want to see works by one of the most brilliant artists you've never heard of, who relates advanced metaphysics through diagrams? Want to read about Genesis P-Orridges strange and fascinating career helping to invent psychic music and popularize magick anyone can do? Want to read about how it is in our genetic and evolutionary instincts to be destructive? Well, this book is a good starting ground for all types of diverse and subversive thinking. It will blow your mind if you pick it up and give it a chance. Way better than the TV series, btw, as it has full interviews, edited together by the pretentious guy on the cover. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0971394210, Paperback)

The best and most revealing interviews from the prococative TV series/DVD of the same name.

Richard Metzger presents the most compelling interviews from the hit TV series Disinformation, revealing mind-blowing thoughts from modern culture's most radical thinkers: Paul Laffoley on how to build a working time machine and a house made of vegetables; Douglas Rushkoff explains "media viruses"; Lucifer Principle author Howard Bloom on the coming biological apocalypse; Genesis P-Orridge on what it's like to be the leader of your own cult; Joe Coleman's collection of weird stuff; Robert Anton Wilson on The Illuminati and Aleister Crowley; Kembra Pfahler on The Voluptuous Horror of Karen Black; Duncan Laurie on the forbidden science of radionics; and comics author Grant Morrison (The Invisibles, JLA, X-Men) on sex magick, Hollywood's interest in underground culture and the best alien abduction story you'll ever hear! Plus, many more modern revolutionaries (including philosopher Peter Russell, futurist Mark Pesce, and Apocalypse Culture's Adam Parfrey) expressing their thoughts, fears, enthusiasms, and predictions.

The book's title is our brand name and trademark-both a first and a last. It is also the first book by the "face" of Disinformation-Richard Metzger. Naturally, it will receive our biggest marketing push ever:

o Richard will make live appearances in New York, Los Angeles and other citiesMultiple TV & Radio appearancesMultiple mailingsRetail price and position participationNational press coveragePromotional t-shirts and other branded merchandiseOngoing Disinformation web site (www.disinfo.com) and email blitz

Richard Metzger is a co-founder of The Disinformation Company and wrote, directed, and hosted the first two seasons of the Disinformation TV series, which initially aired on Britain's Channel 4 network. The series has been licensed to a major cable network in the United States, and a DVD of the series is planned and will be co-marketed with the book.
