THE AUTUMN JOURNEY 26
Riding Dragons &
Roaming Dungeons
There be Dragons in these waters, and we have little interest in slaying them. We would rather learn how to ride the powerful currents of fear, desire, creativity, magick and Chaos without getting dragged around by the tail.
There be Dungeons too, hidden beneath the maps of the Self, where Gremlins guard forgotten stories, strange treasures and powers we may have buried long ago.
The D&D part is quite literal: this is a mythopoetic role-playing adventure, where the maps become Territories, the Crew becomes characters, and the Quests spill into real life.
And the R&D part means we are still fucking around and finding out how transformation, Octomancy and the larger MythOS gameworld actually want to develop and and how what we discover along the way might contribute to collective development that can scale beyond a single Crew.
The Crews gather on the evening of the Equinox September 20th and the journeys end on the Winter Solstice December 20th.
THE TACOS FLEET
Transformational Adventures in ChaoSurfing through the Octomantic Seas
The TACOS Fleet gathers a handful of very different vessels, each sailing its own route through the Octomantic Seas and carrying a distinct Crew, culture and purpose.
Some journeys cross all Eight Seas, while others head toward stranger regions such as the Wasteland or the Islands of Magick.
Together, the Fleet is also an experiment in Pirate Commons Economy, exploring how Coin, care, skills, barter and shared resources can circulate through a living network rather than simply flow upward.
Each ship remains sovereign in how it navigates, while contributing stories, discoveries, practices and resources back into the wider MythOS.
The more vessels join the adventure, the more the Fleet becomes something larger than the sum of its ships: a roaming commons for transformation, experimentation and worldbuilding.
THE SHIPS
Choose your vessel wisely!
The “Pippilotta”
The flagship of the fleet
Sailing since Summer 2021 – 9 Journeys across the 8 Seas.
The seasoned flagship, sailing the full Octomantic route across the 8 seas while incubating the next layer of MythOS.
“The Starward Passage – A Constellation Rising through the Octomantic Seas“
Sept. 20th – December 20th
Captain M_Continuum
She steers the Pippilotta and serves as Admiral of the TACOS Fleet, creator of the ORMEC framework for transformational journeys, cartogapher of the Octomantic territories, carrier of the larger MythOS vision and the responsibility of keeping the different vessels oriented toward a shared horizon. Her current work is to call in the constellation that can carry this world further than one Captain ever could.
Transformational Coach, Chaos Magician, Threshold Guide, and Agent of Change at the Cosmic Customer Care Department.
Quartermaster nemo
He tends the relational field aboard the Pippilotta and serves as Treasurer of the Fleet, keeping an eye on both the humans and the Coin that move through the emerging Pirate Commons Economy. A wordsmith, storyteller , chao-economist and seasoned crew steward, he helps make sure resources, stories and care keep circulating where they are needed.
The Constellation Crew of 17
Guided by the Star, Arcana XVII, we call in a Crew of seventeen: Captain, Quartermaster and fifteen voyagers, each carrying a different fragment of the emerging pattern.
We are looking for different-minded humans who are hungry for transformation, willing to do some real inner work, curious about the stranger territories of consciousness, and perhaps ready to rekindle a relationship with magick that has gone a little quiet, dusty or overly theoretical. People who are open to receiving new inspiration, experimenting with unfamiliar maps, and getting their hands dirty in the Territory rather than only talking about it.
We are also calling in humans who bring skills that may help the larger MythOS emerge: game designers, storytellers, writers, illustrators, digital artists, animators, facilitators, coaches, ritual designers, community weavers, coders, hackers, AI tinkerers, product thinkers, UX people, worldbuilders, systems nerds, technomancers, witches, mages and other interdisciplinary creatures with useful obsessions we have not thought to name yet.
The experiment is to see what happens when all these different forms of curiosity, craft, weirdness and lived experience spend three months aboard the same vessel, and whether this temporary constellation can grow into a Crew capable of incubating a world.
