 * By bringing together the avant-garde and the occult (in its Celtic-Druidic form) under the rubric of the avant-bard, the Neoist Alliance is dissolving both these phenomena, and simultaneously destroying the false community engendered by capitalist social relations, a ‘social’ form predicated on the spectacular opposition of these twin modes of occultural invocation.

 * It is my contention that as the authorship of our own private narrative becomes increasingly autonomous, malleable and optional, that a new future, a future that is inclusive, rooted in the idea of an open source that we can affect by logical and alchemical means, becomes critical to our species’ survival, comprehension, and evolutionary change. A future where Burroughs and Gysin, and their modern occultural brethren, have supplied prophetic, functional skills and nonlocal points of observation which can train us to be fittingly alert and prepared for the unpredictable aesthetic and social spasms to come.

 * Even though few modern, self-professed Satanists feel as a part of a grand movement or clearly definable subculture (and some even attack the very notion of community implied in these words), I would certainly state that from a historical and sociological point of view, they do belong to a diffuse “occultural” movement and, in the case of organized Satanists, belong to subcultures within it with common identity, history (both emic and etic), symbols, aesthetics, interpretations and practices; in short: Identity, commitment, consistent distinctiveness and autonomy.⁷
