Metaconsciousness: Mythology for a Post-Civilized World
I.14 | Contents | II.1
The impulse behind Volume II is the idea, expressed in the Prologue, that "Civilized patterns are as they are because of the mythologies and memes shared by all civilized people. Therefore, in order to pioneer alternative, post-civilized social patterns, it will be necessary to develop and substitute post-civilized mythologies for existing civilized mythologies. Volume II is dedicated to the development, articulation, and exploration of such post-civilized mythologies, and collaborative input is invited.
So far, sections II.1, II.2, II.3, II.4, and II.5, are initial draft contributions to the ongoing formulation of such a post-civilized mythology. More are needed, sprung from as many diverse points of view as possible. The contributions mentioned above may serve as preliminary examples, to help get the ball rolling; but they should in no way be considered "exemplary." They are simply the first attempts at possible "post-civilized myths" to have surfaced to date.
