On this episode of the Cyborg Memoirs …podcast… I am very pleased to present to you a lively recording from Rasheedah Phillips’ Dismantling the Master’s Clock book release party here in Philadelphia, at the Wooden Shoe at March 13, 2025. Posted w/permission of course. Myself and Ras Cutty Mashramani were on hand to read alongside our lovely colleague. You can listen at the 45 minute mark of the episode.
As usual, I have an astrological-tinged, confessional-style cyberpunk monk sermon to deliver prior to the reading, with lots of threads to pull, on the topics of holding fast to stability myths in our current epoch and the narratives that keep us in our suffering.
