SYGNYL: A General Mystification Vol. 1

Mystic Elegy, Orphic Yarn, or Dire Warning? The varied texts of SYGNYL have at times been lost, found, translated, forged or otherwise mishandled. Listener discern. File under: magical realism, participatory arts, immersive nonfiction, esoteric wisdom, new vessel.

Begin with the Prologue, and listen for cameo appearances by: H.R. of Bad Brains, Wavy Gravy, Pamela De Barres, Marky Ramone, Jason Segel, Lonnie Anderson, Dougie Fresh, Cherie Currie, Money B, Damien Echols, and… you.

Before we are able to welcome a new era... Aug 10, 2025

Show notes

We will not go back. We've come too far. We are not going to give up now.

Together we gather at the twilight of the world we once knew.

To honor what has passed and remember who we are…

The lucky ones.

Those born to witness modernity’s culmination yet alive to navigate its reckoning.

The Cortege is our offering.

A dusk-lit procession where art, myth, and ceremony walk side by side.

An invitation to emerge from your solitude, Bear witness, and join us beyond the veil.

The Cortège is …. A festive funeral for our times.

The Third Episode Feb 09, 2021

Show notes

The narrator seems to be employing some kind of craftiness and you're not sure how you feel about it. Neither does the other listener.
Will you follow the instructions embedded into the episode? Maybe you will. Maybe you won't.
