Poetic Faiths embody soulful practice through ritual participation in mythopoetic art; they are ways of taking as profound that which may not be taken literally.Volume I includes:Aretéanism – a ritualistic path toward personal and communal excellence, inspired by ancient Greek philosophyCREATION – a queer, science-fiction-infused religious response to climate change, mourning the AnthropoceneThe First Church of David Bowie, Phonomancer – a psychedelic blend of role-playing, music and personal developmentThe Orphan Wisdom School – a redemptive practice rooted in knowing history, being claimed by ancestry and working for a time that we won’t live to seeThe Mysterium – an immersive experience of Deep Play guided by 'memento mori ergo carpe diem'—remember death, therefore seize the dayWith a foreword by Professor Carole Cusack and the provocative Cultpunk Manifesto, this collection explores the dynamic intersection of ceremony, art and philosophy in the search for metamodern meaning.Book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DV92J27NBlog: https://cultpunk.art
