Culture is not your friend

Terence McKenna - 'Culture is not your friend' 
Audience - 'so how do we fight back?' 
Terence McKenna - 'I think that by creating Art, man was not put on this planet to toil in the mud. Or the God who put us on this planet to toil in the mud is no God I want to have any part of it is some kind of Gnostic demon, some kind of cannibalistic dema urge which should be thoroughly renounced and rejected. By putting the art pedal to the metal we really I think maximize our humanness and we become much more necessary and incomprehensible to the machines.'
