Spotted this on Tumblr recently (part of that reading up on esoterica I mentioned the other day), the TOPY manual of “television magick”. Never actually read it, but this did remind me that I read something once about how one of TOPY’s “television as a magical tool” things was to use a TV set as a scrying tool, by tuning it off channel and watching the static to see what appeared in it. I forget if this was preceded by consumption of mind-altering substances or not. I’ve often wondered how this would work in the modern digital TV age when there isn’t any more TV static as such, maybe a bit of glitching but that’s all since analogue transmission was shut down, at least as far as I know. Then again, some of the people on this forum reckon any surface will do, so I presume even a TV switched off entirely is also good… and I’m sure those folks would know, they’re posting on a forum run by a noted “black magician” who isn’t at all a piece of shit who inspired a teenager to kill people with a text written for a frankly Nazi occult organisation. Those are people whose opinions you can probably trust…
