May the 4th be with You! Science, Fiction and Magic

Hold on to your tinfoil hat as you join us for a warp speed ride through the universe where magic and science meet! From cyberpunk shamanism to alchemical futurism, discover how magicians have used scientific ideas to inform their practice, and the ways in which science is influenced by occultism. In this lecture and Q&A session, occultist and independent scholar Julian Vayne will be our guide to forces that have shaped the history and language of magic, as well as lifting the veil on emerging fields where technology and the esoteric studies converge.

Julian Vayne is an occultist with over 35 years’ experience. His work is informed by chaos magic, and by lineages in Wicca and Tantra. A regular workshop leader and speaker, Julian is also a co-organiser of the psychedelic conference Breaking Convention, and he sits on the board of The Journal of Psychedelic Studies. His books, essays and articles are published in both the academic and esoteric press. Site: julianvayne.com
