OVERVIEW of TECHSPIRIT-L
As the electronic communication revolution gathers momentum, it is
becoming clear that we are in the midst of a global transformation
that will change human thought and experience at an unprecedented
rate. One of the least expected but most important areas of culture
to be affected by the electronic revolution is religious and spiritual
life. From traditional forms of western and eastern religion to
recent experimental groups and sects, individuals on a spiritual path
are searching for new methods of communication, including the Internet
and related techologies.
THEMES
We are starting TECHSPIRIT-L to explore the implications of
technospirituality. Key questions include, but are by no means
limited to, the following:
--> What new spiritual possibilities does cybertechnology create?
--> How how are individuals and groups using computers and the
media to deliver their spiritual message, whatever it might be?
How does the technology affect their message?
--> What kinds of spiritual experiments are taking place on the Net
right now, and where will they lead?
Within this broad framework, no subject is out of bounds. We want to
know what is already going on, what you think should be going on, and
what you fear might be going on.
GOALS
Our main goal is to push the exploration of these ideas as far and
deep as possible. This could include staging rituals on the Net,
collaborating with cybershamans to achieve healing, or participating
in other improvisational experiments. Depending on how the
experiments develop, we might use the discussions as the basis of a
book, which would disseminate your views and insights by citing
selected posts.
