Shannon Rowan discusses her fascinating book “The Red Shoes: Our Devil’s Dance with Technology and How We Can Stop It” on whether digital technologies have crossed the Rubicon from being mere tools to becoming our masters and whether they may even inherently be evil. From the harms of EMF and EMR, to the effects of screen technology on children and adult internet addiction, the internet is wrecking havoc on society. She also looks at some of the mysterious DARPA origins of this technology and little known facts, such as how the CIA’s MKULTRA predecessor was known as Project Bluebird, and isn’t it interesting how Twitter’s initial logo was a bluebird? She also covers solutions which includes “rewilding ourselves”.
Shannon Rowan is a “WiFi refugee,” social commentator, fine artist, photographer, geopolitical and health author and researcher, and EMF-awareness educator.
Shannon lives off-grid with her partner in the Northern California wilderness and spends her free time in healthy outdoor pursuits such as organic farming, sea kayaking and surfing.
