Beschreibung:
Beth Singler is a Post-Doctoral researcher at the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion at the University of Cambridge, where she is using digital and non-digital ethnographic methods to consider contemporary developments in Artificial Intelligence and robotics and their implications for both human identity and for the continuation of religious ideas and narratives. The Indigo Children: New Age Experimentation with Self and Science continues her research into 21st Century New Religious Movements, and other areas on which she has been published include Jediism, Scientology, Paganism, and the Pro-Ana movement.
This book is the fullest introduction to the Indigo Child concept to date. Employing both on- and offline ethnographic methods, Beth Singler objectively considers the place of the Indigo Children in debates around religious identity, self-creation, online participation, conspiracy theories, race and culture, and definitions of the New Age moveme
