LD Deutsch’s debut essay collection, published by Sacred Bones Books, investigates the intersections between technoscientific thought and mythological narratives through five interconnected essays. Drawing on figures including Carl Jung, Carlo Rovelli, and Jacques Vallée, the work explores consciousness, temporality, the simulation hypothesis, and the relationship between inner psychological/esoteric experience and outer physical reality. Deutsch engages with psychoanalysis, philosophy, metaphysics, and mysticism to examine how science and myth inform understandings of selfhood and reality’s foundations. Originally appearing as zines between 2018-2023, the collection includes revised versions and one previously unreleased essay, positioning itself within speculative and alternative intellectual frameworks that resonate with post-punk culture’s broader engagement with consciousness, technology critique, and non-linear thinking.
