[Dancecult-l] secrecy, disappearance & invisibility

[tobias c. van Veen]

hey there d/c:

I am undertaking some focused research concerning rave culture as a secret
society, including the phenomena of (sub)cultural 'disappearance' -- i.e.
what it means to be 'underground' -- including the process of
'becoming-invisible'.

Any texts within the culture -- including journalism, manifestos, tracts,
blogs -- or analyses in the academic field that link rave/technoculture to
disappearance, secret societies, becoming-invisible, etc., appreciated.

As I am not a sociologist or ethnographer but a communications scholar in
philosophy, reports from the field in these and other disciplines would be
greatly appreciated.

ps. yes I am well aware of Bey's writings -- :) -- what would also interest
me would be people taking them up ...
