"Technomad: Global Raving Countercultures is the most wide-ranging and detailed of all the books on rave. More than the study of a musical movement or genre, Technomad offers an alternate history of cultural politics since the 1960s, from hippies and Acid Tests through the sound systems and 'vibe-tribes' of the 1990s and beyond.... Like Greil Marcus' Lipstick Traces, Technomad makes unexpected but entirely convincing connections between people, movements and events. Like Tom Wolfe's The Electric Koolaid Acid Test, St John's book introduces us to unknown heroes, committed geniuses and genuine revolutionaries. Beautifully written, with a genuinely international perspective on electronic dance music culture, Technomad is one of the best books on music I've read in some time." – Professor Will Straw, Department of Art History and Communication Studies, McGill University A significant part of the book covers San Francisco Bay Area and West Coast developments, especially Burning Man and Moontribe, and references Earthdance, CCC, SPAZ, AMF, etc. (Get the book from the Earthdance Bookshelf <http://www.earthdancenetwork.com/page/bookshelf-1>) Online excerpts from Technomad: Digital Be-In: http://www.earthdancenetwork.com/notes/Conscious_Parties_and_Cybertribes Burning Man: http://www.undergrowth.org/burning_time_begoggled_in_the_mega_vibe_burning_man_by_graham_st_john http://www.undergrowth.org/burning_time_begoggled_in_the_mega_vibe_burning_man_by_graham_st_john _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ The Journey Home: Autobiography of an American Swami by Radhanath Swami (Mandala; September 2010; 356 pages; $16.95). This inspiring tale of adventure and profound spiritual discovery follows Richard Slavin through a life-changing journey down the path of enlightenment to his current status as one of India’s great spiritual leaders, Radhanath Swami. His story takes us hitchhiking across Europe and the Middle East—through Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and eventually India. He survives multiple near-death encounters including run-ins with drug smugglers, robberies at knifepoint, an attack by a pack of wild dogs, being held captive by a large venomous snake, and nearly suffocating in quicksand. Penniless and half-starved, he arrives in India and climbs to remote regions of the Himalayas where levitating recluses are among the many famous and unknown mystics who train him in the life of a wandering mendicant. He eventually finds himself in a holy forest where his long, matted locks and threadbare garments gain him entrance into the company of renowned yogis and saints. This is where he begins to learn that beautiful things happen in life when we “let go of our own ego”. THE JOURNEY HOME is an extraordinary memoir in which the author weaves a colorful tapestry of adventure, mysticism, and love.
