The OTO, the Alt-Right & More Part II w/ Marco Visconti & Recluse (Patreon)

This is the second part of my OTO/Alt-Right interview with Marco Visconti. He is a musician and esotericist. As to the former, he is a founding member of the electro-industrial band XP8 and has been playing and producing with Faderhead since 2008. He has also released works and performed under such monikers as Pylon People and DJ Azrael. As for esoteric interests, he has been initiated into Freemasonry, the AA, the Choronzon Club, and the OTO before going his own way. Currently he is the driving force behind the Ecclesia Gnostica Universalis, a Thelemic and Gnostic church not tied to any particular order. Finally, he's just announced a forthcoming book that will drop in 2023.

The first part of this interview, which is available publicly, dealt with Marco's divorce from the OTO. As we were wrapping up part one, Marco broke down the links between the American OTO and the ill-fated Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville as well as the sexual assault allegations that rocked the British OTO. Marco was directly involved in the latter, which brought him into the crosshairs of 8chan trolls. He had started to outline a few of those experiences in part one, but here we go much further.

We also explore the possibility of whether he was subjected to magical attacks, and the potential links the followers of Kenneth Grant and Discordianism have in the alt-right. This leads us into a deep discussion concerning the different states of consciousness, how time travel is possible through them and how it ties into things like the Saturnine current and the Cybernetic Culture Research Unit. To wrap up, Marco also gives us a sneak peak of his forthcoming book.  It's a jam packed hour plus, in other words. In particular, I think you guys are going to enjoy the explorations of the different states of consciousness, i.e., the waking, the dreaming, the deep sleep, and what comes beyond the deep sleep.

As always, I thank you guys for listening and your support.
