How To Survive Secular Mysticism is a fierce meditation on the cultural hijacking of mystical language and imagery. Alex Head’s swirling aesthetic sensibility and kaleidoscopic commentaries pull us through the subtle yet profound distinctions between lived spirituality and its secular simulacrum, demanding conscious intention and devotional presence amid ever-intensifying chaos.
- Ferdiansyah Thajib, author of Enduring Otherwise
Dense and earnest, this is someone thinking seriously about finding transcendence through art, community, and presence rather than doctrine. 'Secular mysticism' numbs you, disorients you, and opens you to external control. Genuinely strange and original writing, somewhere between cultural criticism, spiritual autobiography, and conspiracy theory, held together by artistic intelligence.
- Erin Honeycutt, pamphleteer
