This is great - the context of quotes in radiance around them. Was the 'we are as gods' thing never about 'eco-modernism' then? Or did it come to be about that?

With Prometheus it's amazing how people always talk about him like they've got him pegged and yet take utterly different views on him. He's a lot like Loki and yet people talk about him as if he's this totally straight-up guy.

Brand was involved in the Earth Day movement and all that jazz, so I think it was always eco-modernism. There was a really cool illustrate VW catalog for parts and DIY stuff then. We had all this stuff laying around when I was a kid, squarely in hands and regions that were just then beginning to become parts of the permanent revolution or conservative long march. Woodstock country. Back to the Land-ers, future Trumpers.
