In September 2016, Rob Atkins (Wellington, New Zealand) and Andro Mathewson (Edinburgh, Scotland) met at the University of Otago in New Zealand and founded Acrillics with the goal of producing electronic music that combines multiple genres and their cross-cultural backgrounds to create a unique sound without the constraints of one musical category. Since their origin, Acrillics has gone on to release tracks on Mat Zo's label Mad Zoo Music, prominent trap music blog FUXWITHIT, Noiseporn, Electric Hawk, Tribal Trap, Street Ritual and many others, as well as headline shows and perform at venues across the world, open for artists such as Mat Zo, GTA, Josh Pan, Louie Lastic, Dack Janiels, AFK, Svdden Death & Shaun Frank and be supported by Alison Wonderland, Dillon Francis, Boombox Cartel, Ookay, Luca Lush, SteLouse, T1R and SpaceYacht.

A podcast for a positive future! To host fun conversations to illuminate the path out of this oppressive leviathan, towards an ideal society.

Terence McKenna once said, "If we continue going where we're headed, we'll end up living in a toxic waste dump ruled over by Nazis." 30 years later, we are still driving down that same road. How do we escape this fate? Is there another path? 

If we are going to escape our default dystopian trajectory, we need a map. Reactionary forces in our society are afraid of the unknowable future, so they vociferously grasp towards an unrecoverable romanticized past, for lack of an alternative vision. The status quo has become untenable, so something has to give. We forward-thinkers must get better at articulating the future we want to see, otherwise we will slide back into the worst aspects of historical injustice, and things will get very ugly indeed.

To create a world worth living in, we need help. No one can create the future alone. Whatever the fate of our species will be, it will be a manifestation of our collective will. The people own the future. It does not belong to any elite. But most people don't even bother confronting the future, because they are kept treading water by an economic system that treats them as mere instruments of production. The working class is deliberately distracted from thinking about big picture questions like Does it really have to be this way? What is the good life? How should society be organized? What would we do with our time if money was no object? What does utopia look like from here? and How the fuck do we really accelerate the evolutionary path towards it?

Utopian Cartography will feature artists, activists, intellectuals, & event producers from whom I have gained great insights about the potential of a positive future. When I woke up to the ways of the world years ago, I became overwhelmingly depressed by the apocalypse. I was convinced we were headed straight for the Nazi toxic waste dump Terence warned us about. Then I discovered utopia. My eyes were opened yet further, and I learned that the revelations of our as yet unrealized liberation had a purpose. I came to appreciate the fact that "change only occurs when the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of changing." Apocalypse is a necessary precursor to utopia. We can only see the garden beyond the veil by first confronting the ills of the status quo. Utopia is out there, if only we know how and where to look.

So if you want to shed some of that existential despair and pessimism about the possibility of a good future for humanity and our planet, give this show a listen. We will do our best to illustrate the rational case for optimism about the future, with a philosophically & historically informed evolutionary perspective, streetwise cynicism, and a healthy dose of psychedelic trickster irreverence. 

To be hopeless is to disregard history. The future can be better than any of us imagine, so let's figure out how to get there.

With Love, 

Neonn Felicity 💜
