Raiazome is the concrescence of Rhizome Theory and the Gaia Hypothesis.

Raiazome is a community-building lifeboat collecting books, book excerpts, articles, essays, FAQs, interviews, journals, papers, poems, software, speeches, audio, video, and imagery, et al., through the convergent discontinuities of the 21st century — which are:

• Peak everything. (Particularly, peak oil.)
• Climate change.
• Economic collapse.
• Ecologic collapse.

Raiazome is a community-based wiki composed, in muffled concert, of ragamuffin camps of techno-dystopian doomsayers, techno-utopian gainsayers, and naysayers, far and far-flung, between that fractal schism.

Raiazome is a reordering principle over beliefs, institutions, and world views — re-prioritizing memetic principia, metaphysical positions, and physical percepts through the whistling sieves of a Generalized Agnosticism.

Raiazome asks the question, “Is Civilization good?”; but doesn’t answer it.

Only you, ordain’d in flesh and wisdom of your birthright’s heritage, have its answer.
