"But first, I want to address the notion of double consciousness
and its relationship to art.
By double consciousness I mean the state of being which gives access,
at one and the same time, to two distinctly different fields of
experience.
In classical anthropological terms this is to describe the shamanic
"trance" in which the shaman is both in the world and
at the same time navigating the outermost limits of other worlds,
psychic spaces aided often by plant "technology", are
granted access.
In post-biological terms, this is mirrored by our ability to move
effortlessly through the infinities of cyberspace while at the same
time accommodating ourselves within the structures of the material
world."
