    ON HIGH at RED TIDE ∴ Gabriel Hart ∴ PRAGMAGICK

    “Hideously hilarious and strangely poetic, On High at Red Tide is the best/worst ride to the Coney Island of the Minds inside delinquent lunatics looking for fun in all the wrong places. I loved it.” —Lydia Lunch”

    Here’s the full episode with punk noir novelist and troubadour of JAIL WEDDINGS & The STARVATIONS, Gabriel Hart, about his debut novel, ON HIGH AT RED TIDE!

    About ON HIGH AT RED TIDE:

    A debauched meditation on death and delinquency that fuses noir, punk/gang culture, and the surrealist drug novel into a caution-nary tale of toxic co-dependence and blurred principle. A mysterious sentient energy lowly reincarnated as red tide—the harmful algal bloom sharing its red phosphorous with methamphetamine—returns to the scenes of its coming-of-age atrocities, narrating this punk rock shadowing of The Secret History and Lord of the Flies from the vantage of its ominous panoramic ocean. In tandem, we observe The Vigil: a gang of neurotic teenagers living on a strict diet of speed, alcohol, and 25-cent pudding pies, craving power and vengeance in a small beach town where the police are closing in on them and “Mom,” their enabling matriarch on her last hurrah.

    NOTE: I’ll be going on a sabbatical to the foggy coast as I try to make heads or tails of internal and external developments. I hope to return with a plan of attack for finishing both the HAUNTOMANCER / HAUNT MANUAL print text and the REVEL ROSZ record–both have been harrowing in their incessant gnaw and I plan to hexorcise these major works within the next few months.

    I will be shipping more HOLLERS and HEXKASSETTES upon returning. My bandwidth is a bit fried at the moment. Hope you all have a great horrorday and stay tuned for some more updates via patreon. HAUNT THE HAINTS, AND HAUNT ON.

    How We Made an AudioSigil ∴ DIMtZUM ∴ PRAGMAGICK 100TH

    DIMtZUM’s “The Mauve Sessions” is a somatickally performed-yet-transcontinental audiosigil created by Frater Perseus and Revel Rosz. They discuss the this hauntsigil’s creation, trak by track, for the 100th (official) PRAGMAGICK episode!

    ABOUT DIMtZUM:

    The creation and whirlwind magicks utilized to conjure a surprise and powerful record, whilst in the midst of piecing outing my song sigil series, is a fantastick example of the hauntsigil, personally, but hypersigil, commonly, in turn.

    My Hauntomancy within DIMtZUM is best exemplified by the communion of the Spectre of my youth—one doused in the desert heat and cradled within the fuzz gospel of bands such as The Melvins, Unwound, Fugazi—and one that I have always cherished, yet, never knew how to conjure those deep influences until this project arose. The Aspectre was also danced with, as I found myself white-eyed and ravenous to experiment with my own talismanic instruments in ways hitherto unknown, inspired by the cosmick rhythms of Frater Perseus somatickally performed in his own magickal artspace called The Mauve Room, and allowed me to tether his conjurations from my Dimming Room: A rather analog & somatick affair considering we were transcontinental in collaboration, but one that kept the dirty ghost within a baritone fuzz gospel based upon performance rather than post-production.

    Without disrespectfully constituting Frater Perseus’ own utilization of Hauntomancy within this sigil, or discussing his own praxis without his explicit description, I will say a marked element of Hauntomancy I noticed with Perseus’ construction of the DIMtZUM rhythms was that of letting go of long charged and utilized syncopations. He almost retired these long toiled with rhythms to haunt on within these DIMtZUM songs; an exorcism of what was through true communion. He has told me that a lot of these rhythms, although created long ago but never utilized, nor found an appropriate home, can now find their unfinished business somewhat fulfilled upon this DIMtZUM HauntSigil. A fantastic example of Hauntomancy at play as the praxis was both a reverent dirge to what was as well as an ecstatic road-opening to forthcoming, newfangled experimentations.

    Here is the full mastered 6 song album I created with Frater Perseus for the DIMtZUM project and a full visualizer! The album will be released via bandcamp and youtube at 6am on 8/4/24. We chose this release date and time due to celestial elections, and hope our navigation proves fruitful.

    The visualizer uses drone footage from Logan Ford that we shot at and around his property of DIRT HAWK RANCH, NM. I also added my analog tape glitch for fun effect. But this is more about the musick than anything else…

    Also, here’s the sigil for the projekt. We mixed the Arabic word for “dim”, the Hebrew word for “tsom/tsum” (the root of TZUM), my custom WtH font, the therefore symbol, all into a DIM MAUVE CACTUS:

    The ART OF DOOM ∴ Chet Zar ∴ PRAGMAGICK

    Renowned “Dark Artist” Chet Zar chats with Keats of PRAGMAGICK about his brilliant artworks and their methods, the confluence of art & magick, conversations with the muse & the serpent, his creature FX work and the whims & blunders of the artist archetype in this modern digital age.

    A two part liminalstream, now combined as a mondo-sode with brilliant arts and DARK ART MAGE, Chet Zar! We definitely made up for the MARS/ALGO/URANUS techno goofjuice that ended our first liminalstream. This has to be one of my favorite discussions that truly exemplify that ‘third mind’ communion of pragmatism and magick as we saunter through the inner/outer/supra realities that conduct a modern artist’s paradigm.

She is a modern PSYCHOPOMP of sorts, and part of Seattle's Stone Circles Collective, whose mission is to support individuals in maintaining their sovereignty in death.

    NOW AVAILABLE FOR HQ DOWNLOAD ON BANDCAMP: https://revelrosz.bandcamp.com

    MANY NAMED (The Second Body) ∴ songsigil01 by REVEL∴ROSZ

    The first SONGSIGIL in the REVEL ROSZ monthly series that builds to his first fully produced debut album. The songsigil is to be widereleased on bandcamp and all streaming platforms July 2024. It was imperative that the first of the series be revealed today, 7/7/24 due to celestial elections. You can view the videomancy component of the sigil here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0PJ4cnBu5w

       

    The video was made in The Dimming Room and shot on analog film Hi8 camcorders along with my rusty sony DSLR. The glitch effects are all completely analog as one of the camcorders has a malfunctioning output - but I love the natural analog decay. Utilizing this along with in-camera lo-fi projection mapping is perfectly analogous to the song's production, as everything was performed and recorded somatically - no digital samples, sequencing or digital FX.

    Recorded with live drums and live manipulated analog FX, four track & cassette player manipulation, baritone electric guitar, casio circuit bent keyboard, 70's analog rhythm box and the live manipulated Robert Monroe tape samples!

    lyrics

    Prelude: Robert Monroe on The Out Of Body Experience 1989

    I am the ghost that hangs aroundKeter dethroned and spit me outAnd the yell-hounds still tryna sniff me outBut I told you I'd be the ghost that hangs aroundCan't you hear them howlin?

    Them yell-houndsWell, they're bound to keep me found

    Back from the deadIt ain't like you readI chewed through Sekhmet's spacesWith a severed, bloody head

    And now these muckle black tykesDressed in dead's threadsThey done sic'd on meThey won't let me beHoney, time is of the essenceSo lay with me

    And I see you weep'Cause I'm not aroundA boy could get used toForlornin', and how!

    Never knew how many strangers feltI'm so deeply uncomfortableCome dig me outBefore the hounds will outCome on, dig me out

    Can't you hear them howl?Ooh-raA-hoo-ra

    Can't you hear meRappin' at your chamber doorYou say "Forever More"No matter howStrong enoughLook who's ghostin; vows now

    Look who's ghosting vows nowI am post hasteAnd I'm many namedBut I can't relateTo a dying day

    Check my pulse nowCan you replace?No, I had noneStill I was oneOh, I'm comin'Yeah, I'm comin' home

    Who's ghostin' who now?I'm many namedForever in one placeI am post hasteI am the mostTo cull awayNow many named

    HAUNTING THE MUSE ∴ JJ Reine De Blanc ∴ A Talismancy & Hauntomancy Magickast

    Welcome to a MONDO HAUNTOLOGICAL PRAGMAGICK 3 HOUR TITTLE TATTLE DIGGLE DEEP OF AN EPISODE!

    Before we dip into the raditudes, please check out the new Ritual Craft Grimoire entitled the DIVERGENT MAGICK GRIMOIRE!

    THE DIVERGENT MAGICK ANARCHIC GRIMOIRE

    “From PRAGMAGICK creator and perpetual fuck up, Revel Rosz, comes the Divergent Magick Anarchic Grimoire. A workbook that offers a framework to create, construct, disrupt, and rejuvenate the rites and rituals that form your personal lore. It’s Divergent because it doesn’t adhere to a single current, reflecting the diverse nature of each person’s individuation process. Additionally, it’s divergent because the creator is a neurodivergent schemer, always seeking to merge the pragmatic with the magical. The grimoire’s 40-plus ritual cycles encompass metaphysical frameworks for various aspects, be it artistic projects, health habits, or creating/deconstructing magickal rituals. Each rite cycle can delve into the neurotic details of a single step, making the grimoire a major rite in itself! The only rule: customize everything! Let this tool assist your anarchic praxis in ritualising the mundane, echoing the profane, and resonating with sacred rites that shape your personal lore. Hardbacks and paperbacks are available on Amazon. Contact PRAGMAGICK-(at)-Gmail-dot-com to be part of the grimoire’s own deconstruction and rebirth!”

    After years of working with Eric Millar and his We The Hallowed Press bouts of independent publishing, I decided I would take a stab at creating custom, blank journals—largely for myself and my endless need of scribble books. I designed a blank journal with PragMagick’s Austin Osman Spare Planchette insignia, only the image on the cover, but needed to publish it to the public to get my discounted author copies, so I pummeled through the annoying minutiae of listing it for sale to a general audience. I knew how niche and specific these designs were, and had no expectation about them selling. The simple praxis of self-publishing these wholly custom journals got me itchy about all the publishing projects from the early We The Hallowed era. Hell, even Revelator Rosz, my rebirthed moniker reinvigorated by the Prospectre Ritual, is still listed as an author to the first ever We The Hallowed zine.

    Dissolving the internal dissonance I’ve felt with We The Hallowed as a magickal apparatus of late, echoing its ethos of anarchic revelries of shared metaphysical creations, and finally, resounding in the thirdscene of both made new—allowed me to construct this anarchic grimoire, this workbook, this rubric for user-created ritual construction.

    PURCHASE HARDBACK VIA AMAZON: https://a.co/d/ck9mfZz

    THE ANARCHIC SCHEMA

    The Grimoire is simple. The book gives space for the aspects of a rite, it gives space for the ruminations and visitations of a rite’s attempts, space to catalogue a personal sigil alphabet, and, most importantly, it introduces the “Disolver Eco Resonar” method to assist in ritual ruination, reconstruction and rebirth of all of the above. This very chapter of the Haunt Manual was guided by this D E R method—as the Spectre of 2017 dissolves, the Aspectre of a thought lost self echoes, and the resonance of these workings haunt on through the Prospectre of self and future works…

    My aims of this Grimoire are threefold: 1) To hone and construct my own ritual processes within an organized schema 2) To have this become the backbone for a resurgence in community driven magicks 3) To deconstruct & rebirth new schema for updated volumes.

    My hope is that the Divergent Magick Anarchic Grimoire is not only found useful for neuro-divergent and neuro-typical minds alike, but also inspires a community of sharing these anarchic recipes for life in the form of their custom rituals. Perhaps this tome can become the tool to discover the constants, to discover the inherent. Perhaps this is vessel for the intentionally customizable scripture of this self-styled art-religon’s “Tethers?” We shall see.

    Notes on terminology From Elena (SorcerersHomie):

    • Praxis: Rite, ritual, practice, cycle.
    • Tethers: Additional notes that don't entirely belong to the other sections of the praxis.
    • Intention: Succinctly articulated objective of the praxis.
    • Spectres: [Note to self] Go read Keats' entry on this as well as the following. These are external or internal contacts—deities, spirits, intelligences, saints, notions i.e., "certain musicians' pathos," etc., with whom you wish to parlay your intentions.
    • Talismans: Physical objects to be utilized in the rite. These may be tools for some specific purpose or items used symbolically toward the aims of sympathetic magic.
    • Invo/evocation Sequence: A distillation of the rite's sequence into nine distinct steps. For best results, they should be comprehensible to a second person.
    • Sigil: A symbolized representation of the praxis (via the usual means).
    • Declarations: The praxis' "prayers, chants, decrees, etc." or the song's lyrics, mission statement, etc. The text of the rite.
    • Observations: "Note the conditions within and outside the self. A micro mindfulness meditation to break you away from the fervor of craft creation."
    • 1 Month Later: Reflections after a month.
    • Disolver: Admissions of obstacles to the rite's work that should be resolved. I think of these as "the trees," as in, "can't see the forest for the trees." Keats writes: "Dissolve them to see past [them]" in this section.
    • Eco: "What do you need to keep performing? These are actions; these are movements. Roar the elements that worked to have them amplified and repeat!" Josephine [McCarthy] always reminds us patterning strengthens ritual actions. Knowing this, what actions will you repeat in future?
    • Resonar: "A revelatory whim materializes. [...] What is it you hope wallows and lingers on from the praxis?" What epiphanies from the praxis process our outcome will you carry with you? What do you want to ring out in perpetuity? K also adds: "Haunt • Emanate • Unify • Resolve." Many potential meanings to Resonar.

    Thanks to Jenny Rocky for her amazing example used in the podckast!

    Thanks to Derek Hunter for the kind words about the Grimoire!

    THE LIVING LORE FILM SCORE ∴ SOUND MAGICK ∴ AUDIOMANCY

    Before we discuss this episode's Audiomancy... The Divergent Magick Grimoire is now out on hardback:

    Watch the Unedited Liminalstream Introduction: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eJDFZ-iAB7A&t=5

    THIS EPISODE:

    I call this a Living Film Score because it has been a rollicking soundtrack that illuminates the Noirs (or metaphysical darkened corners) of the day, and ignites them Neon. Perhaps, you too, will allow this breathing and churning sound magick to brighten the mundane in your own film lore.

    All musick heard was performed live & recorded live to 4 track cassette tape.   Because it is recorded live and on cassette tape, and because everything is improvised, sound quality may vary! But I exalt the warts and all as these rituals are vulnerable exorcisms.

    This "Living Lore Film Score" was composed of two completely improvised DIM SESSIONS (or Audiomancy Rituals) performed and recorded on 12/24 & 12/25 utilizing a new ritual setup. These gusts of creative abandon evoke the PROSPECTRE from the Hauntomancy Workings of HAUNT MANUAL by marrying the SPECTREASPECTRE and all that came from 2023's raucous sound magick works!

    Here is the 2023 Videosigil Vigil of these very Dim Sessions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfpI72K7dWM&t=2285s

    This also is the score and tether for the 2024 Analog Audio Sigil released via PRAGMAGICK:

    PLEASE LIKE, SHARE, SUBSCRIBE, RATE, WHATEVER to help get more eyes/ears/hearts/haunts on this deeply intentional Audio Sigil & Videomancy!

    I also composed a Haunt Manual piece that goes more in-depth about its tethers and sections: “An in-depth look into The Dimming Room Tapes’ Analog Audiomancy Sigil, its Videomancy and the Divergent Magick Grimoire” https://keatsross.substack.com/p/the-dimming-room-tapes
