A bold examination of artificial intelligence, consciousness,
technology, and the human urge to return to the womb. The thesis
of Big Mother begins with the premise that our
disembodiment as a species is being engineered, and that, at
the same time, we are engineering it through technology. It
proposes that the primary driving force of human civilization is
the desire to create through technology a replica of the mother’s
body—and then disappear into it. Taking us into the uncanny
valley where neurodiversity, linguistics, consciousness,
technology, demonology, Rudolf Steiner, Philip K. Dick, Norman
Bates, Ted Bundy, transgenderism, liquid modernity, identity
politics, the surveillance state, virtual reality, transhumanism,
Satanism, medical totalitarianism, and a new world religion of
scientism collide, Big Mother explodes the
technologically-assembled and technocratically-imposed architecture
of illusion in which the modern human being is increasingly lost
inside, and points the way back to our original soul natures.
