White People JuJu | WAWTAR #134

Magic. Juju. Voodoo. It's Old World and for us new worlders, incomprehensible, nonsensical, and quite often frightening. Using magic as our springboard, we are going to explore how we went from a time of mystery to quantity. From magic to data and beyond.Links:Documentary on Appalachia Magic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwaUcSRsQPQ Does the deep immersive experience interest you?
