THC 113: Philip Farber | Understanding Invocation & Evocation Magick
Sherlock Holmes, ATEM Experiment and Intentional Archetypes
The conversation highlights how fictional characters like Sherlock Holmes exert real-world influence on professions like detective work, giving them a form of "memetic reality." Farber details his experiment with ATEM, a self-created entity described in his book Metamagic. This project involved intentionally codifying the elements of an entity to see how it would manifest in the lives of readers who interacted with the text.
