Book excerpt: There is today a surfeit of cultural practices, oriented towards the posited future, that merely reflect personal beliefs or desires, or are utopian or, as we know through terrorism, are destructive in character ... We now need another way to address the future, the future in its character of being always unknown and yet REAL! This future requires a corresponding method; a cultural practice that is synchronized to the quality of the future as unknown yet real, and at the same time participates in its coming-to-be. This book is an attempt to "spell out" such a method. (from the preface)
