Absolutely amazing .. I have come to the end of the line and the beginning it seems lol I had started out a constant drawer and lover of mythology and philosophy as a teen .. to a hard nosed non fiction please know it all , all about the material and science and psychology of the mind type of strategy to understanding and working with life .. then had my world flipped upside down to realize there is much more to it then we realized as was ripped out of my body and travel through time now and awareness in most fractals yet strung together mannerism of a god with a major sense of humor and mild sense of obsessions with water and flowers lmao .. To back to now rediscovered love for using art and stories to understand this reality .. and understand how reality works on me .. and how we are all connected and so on .. in so many more ways on this journey, then I ever could of believed I have no in the flesh friends like me yet who experiences such versions of perceptions of reality and time .. so ty .. I felt like as it feels when talking to guides and “ friends “ from other spaces and places .. just as it felt when randomly stumbled upon Alan moores promethea work this week It gets me all warm and fuzzy and light up like a lightening storms skies ;) I look forward to discovering more of both of your works. The interviewer who I just now stumbled upon who seemed just as genuine as he.

I have listened to and read almost all Alan Moore interviews and this one is unique enough and comprehensive enough to be my new favorite. Who in God’s name gave this a thumbs down? WTF. Seriously.

Alan really makes you think about what being an artist ( or being an human) really is . This interview is transformational , it lifted a fire inside me. It’s very difficult to believe in oneself sometimes but after listen this man and his integrity it obvious to me that’s the name of the game!

What an amazing interview ^^ Just finished reading Promethea, and reading Jerusalem now. Alan Moore becomes a woman with a really full cup... 1200+ pages full.

this is one of the best alan interviews i heard. great work

This was wonderful! Enjoyed it very much.

reckon I’ll be coming back to this for years to come - thank you

This is a simply wonderful interview, Lena Korkovelou. You have a very rare talent. The visuals are actually well-selected and genuinely resonate with the subjects. We look forward to more, no pun intended.

This is a keeper. Absolutely fascinating. And I really needed to hear this.

Well done on getting Alan Moore! Yes!

Fantastic interview. Love the visuals. Thank you.

Wonderful interview! The best Alan Moore interview I`ve ever watched!

I just want to thank you both for this. Wonderful interview.

❤️ This is wonderful ❤️ Thank you ❤️

Thank you very much for uploading this. All the time I was waiting for Joseph Campbell's name to come up....

Great, great interview. I am eager to hear your next interview and beyond, and beyond.

Wow! This is a truly phenomenal appearance and display from both parties, kudos to whatever frequency these two were dialed into. Such beautiful chemistry.

Great interview, really enjoyed it. I've noticed that when Alan Moore gets going about his favourite subjects (Northampton, magick/art, eternalism), his "chats" tend to turn into lectures. However, you did a good job of staying involved. I've also noticed that Alan has certain routines, like the "bits" of a stand-up comedian, that he seems to know play well. For example, the bit about, "if a bard put a satire on you" - I recognised that from "The Mindscape" (from 2003!) But there was plenty of new content, too. I particularly liked it when Alan went into some detail regarding his thoughts on magick - such as when he talked about Qabalah symbolism. It did not escape my notice that he referred to The Moon And Serpent book as "hopefully forthcoming" ... It's been "Coming Soon" on the Top Shelf website for about 9 years now! I know Alan has released a ton of stuff in that time - Dodgem Logic, Jerusalem, Jimmy's End, Provenance, Cinema Purgatorio - and there's the not-insignificant business of Steve leaving the physical plane of Malkuth for the lunar sphere .... I'm just saying, maybe it was premature to start talking about The Moon And Serpent book so early on (like a decade before release). Anyway, thanks again for the interview. And the accompanying graphics are really great, too.

I asked the question about the moon and serpent book on a thread that was on his Facebook page about a year ago and his daughter Leah commented back and said that it had been very difficult for him to finish the book since Steve had passed as Steve was his best friend and mentor but also said that he had hopes of completing and releasing it soon.

this is excellent. definitely one of the more inspiring conversations I've heard in awhile, and I'm only 1/2 through. Thank you for making this, truly making my night richer

Fantastic discussion. I've listened to many Alan Moore conversations and interviews but have never actually read anything by him as I'm not a reader of comics or fantasy in general, but listening to this reminded me to rectify that and I ordered Jerusalem.

Thank you for such an insightful interview.

Fantastic interview Lena, thanks for putting this out. I am glad that KZread actually brought this up for me after searching for 'Alan Moore', took it's time as I normally search out interviews or whatever with Alan on here monthly so am not sure why this hasn't come up before, the most recent interview that I can find. I hope he's okay during this pandemic and I am sure he is, and you! Thanks again, Ian aka Dr Nitrogen

Really enjoyed the interview, Lena. Letting the interviewee speak freely and moving the conversation on when the time was right. Visuals must be a lot of work too. Love the concept for the series and hope there are more in the pipeline.

Thank you so much for this fascinating interview, When Moore expounds on anything that he’s passionate about I can never get enough of it, if he gave a history on the history of ice cream parlors in Northampton I think I would want to hear the entire thing. 😁

Wonderful work Lena...simply the best interview with Alan available on the internet.

thank you for this

Thank you for this. I agree with others on here this is the very best interview with Moore I've listened to. It's something you can go back to over and over again and find something new. Well done!

Alan is, if anyone anywhere is, seminal. A charming interview by host/creator Korkovelou, I must add!

This is an interview I'm going to come back to, it's a dream to have such a massive and wide-ranging interview with Alan Moore. Would that I had known of this a year ago, but oh well. Back to winding my way through Jerusalem, with fresh inspiration!

Your are a fantastic interviewer - a rarity, indeed. Thank you so much for this!

So many beautiful and enlightening threads woven into this conversation. There is a point near the end of the interview at 2:01:12 where Lena's question leads us into drifting red embers flickering to the purposeful deep resonance of Alan's voice that gives me hope in 2020.

God he's such a legend and this is such a wonderful interview. I love the beginning talking about MYTH and mysticism and people looking away from that tradition is favor of rationalism.♥️ Thanks so much.

Alan, please, for Earth's sake, have a conversation with Duncan Trussel. That young man is in a mental space where your ideas would blow his mind currently. I know you aren't a fan of Netflix probably, but the show that he did with Pendleton Ward, The Midnight Gospel, is a true occult masterpiece in my opinion. Also maybe peruse my own works? I'm trying to bring magick into new cultural areas. Thank you for the lifetime of inspiration, brother!

And thank you Lena! Your background knowledge seemed invaluable in moving this dialogue forward past points that I've seen Alan get stuck on with other interviewers. For example, the close relationship between language and magick seemed like more of a mutually understood underpinning to the dialogue here rather than a point to be extensively expounded. It left room for much deeper explorations later on.

This was great!

Fantastic conversation and points raised. Opening up and making such content approachable and inclusive the way Lena and Alan unravel the language of MAKING and the practice of creating as a tool available to all, is a very necessary path to be carved and rendered carvable, especially nowadays, considering the visual and verbal cluster a current mind has to swim through. Μπράβο Λένα!

I absolutely love this, there’s far too much I love about it for me to comment on it at all or I’d be writing for weeks. I love the VR talk especially. That level of immersion can do incredible things for us. I try to use that idea in my own life these days, even just by surrounding myself with images that make me feel a certain way. Which isn’t anything unusual obviously, everyone’s done that for millennia. But knowing how profound an effect it has can completely turn your life around

This is an incredible interview. Very activating! Great work, Lena!
