In mid-March, 2020, the author was overwhelmed by what he perceived as widespread mental illness induced by mass-media generated terror around a far-from-apparent pandemic. As a way of trying to understand what was happening, he enlisted 5 friends in 5 cities and 3 countries who were united in their HERETICAL thinking about this global event to share observations, theories, writing, artworks, and research about the PANDEMIC PANIC. Five months later there were over 4,000 pages of emails and works accumulated that addressed the subject. This book is a distillation of those texts and images presented here as a document of a search for clarity that's far from over.
