Dismissing the contemporary revival of the witch as just some new woo woo manifestation of angst-fueled, crystal-gazing consumer-capitalism is once again diverting our precious attention from the deep and rigorous system critique that the prismatic Wxtch is speaking to.

The program will shapeshift because, sadly, shallow and fixed representation of the witch continue to prevail, derailing our attention with what we would call ‘bad faith distractions’. This attunement is the necessary groundwork for also this program to shapeshift next academic year, when it will metamorphose into a new form while remaining true to its ethics and politics, spirit unchanged. Only by temporarily shedding the accepted perceptual logic of their culture can the sorcerer hope to enter into relation with other species on their own terms only by altering the common organization of their senses will they be able to enter into a rapport with the multiple nonhuman sensibilities that animate the local landscape. It is about cultivating certain skill - available to all genders but also to men - that works as an anti-dote and earth medicine for this encapsulating, desensitizing modern world. This cycle, that dreams of queer and crip more-than-human Sex Magick, is an open invitation to become incredibly sensitive and sensual to an essentially queer universe.
