To unpack this case study, the article develops the idea of 'weird mediation' (in dialogue with Gilbert Simondon), as well as considering some 'shamanic' aspects from Deleuze and Guattari's thought (in dialogue with Carlos Castenada), which together offer insights and warnings about the power of mind manifesting technologies. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Deleuze & Guattari Studies is the property of Edinburgh University Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
