For normal humans yes, for those that merge not so much.

There’s websites showing how you can build technomagick circuits with batteries and leds and sigils / potentiometers. I don’t know how it works or if it does but there’s a lot on it. Lucifer Faust shamanic technomagick is a book that teaches you actual magick devices you can make I believe.

    I honestly have trouble being mad at the non fash tech fetishists. The disempowering horrors of capitalism leave us desperate for salvation and technology is the one promise that capitalism has historically provided as a solution. That being said the solutions of technology under capitalism are usually implemented in some horrific monstrous way but it’s still a solution.
