Silver Solstice Winter Star Radio
Originally Broadcast on December 22, 2011 between 10PM and Midnight EST on 88.3 FM, Cincinnati.
For this episode of Silver Star Radio I was joined on the phone by Taylor Ellwood to talk about his forthcoming book Magical Identity.
Taylor Ellwood is the Managing Non-Fiction Editor of Immanion Press, which publishes cutting edge esoteric and occult books. He’s also the author of Pop Culture Magick, Space/Time Magic, Inner Alchemy and Multi-Media Magic, and the forthcoming book Magical Identity. Visit him online at http://www.magicalexperiments.com
Magical Identity is Taylor’s latest book, due out in March 2012. Magical Identity explores the role of identity within magical work, using themes of neuroscience, space, time, and definitions to understand where identity fits into the magical process as well as how we can use it to enhance our magical process.

Justin,
After partying with wife and kids on New Year’s Eve, and everyone else went to bed, I queued up this show and mellowed out my first hours of 2012 with your sonic alchemy. Great interview. Gave me many useful insights. Sublime music. Thanks for the show. Thanks for setting the tone for my new year.

Taylor,
It was my joy to have you on the air. It was great talking with you and I hope we can do again.
Theo Scribbler,
I’m really glad I was able to get the show up on New Years eve… and it is nice to know you were able to listen to it so soon. I’m glad that it set a good tone for you. I’m always happy to share my favorite music and a good conversation. Your comments have given me heart to plug forward with many of my new radio plans for 2012. Thanks for tuning in, and please remember to tune in again.
