#494 — technomagick

Have any of you ever used the links in networks including the Internet and 
cellular networks as part of your magickal workings, or have you considered 
such usage? How do you think it should be done? Do you know of any SF stories 
that have featured such technomagick?

If my assisted shaktipat eventually is successful, the

dragon lines, updated

item should prove useful in such technomagick for assisted shaktipat 
recipients as well as for me.

(The dragon lines formed on my arms and then on my back after I observed a 
web chart on TV in early 1996, but of course the web has evolved greatly 
since then. I call them dragon lines since they seemed similar to the dragon 
lines in The Mists of Avalon by Marion Zimmer Bradley, though those were not 
related to technology.)

There are far more stories where there is conflict between
magick and technology.

Has "Waldo" been mentioned?

Also, Devon Monk's Allie Beckstrom books are very much about the
industrialization of magic.
