I strongly disagree with having "Orgonite" associated with Orgone. If Orgonite is mentioned in the article, it is necessary to highlight the fact that Orgonite "devices", and all other Orgone "technology" stuff found on the net are a DISHONEST recuperation of Reich concepts to pursue fraudulent commercial activities. None of the properties or alleged effects of Orgonite have something in common with Reich's orgone investigated effects. Also the image used in the head of the article is non appropriate. for the same reasons, because associated with the Orgonite business. For Intelectual honesty and respect for Reich's work integrity, we MUST remove or denounce the Orgonite and fake/dishonest Orgone business on the net. |

:I would be happy to agree with you...once you post some evidence that, you know, any of this is true. The evidence that the scientists that made your computer work and the internet go have somehow missed. I will anxiously be awaiting your reply.

I've made a change which relates to Devo, not orgone as such. The text previously read that Devo "probably sarcastically" promoted orgone recyclers, but the citation, footnote 30, explicitly makes clear the interviewer's opinion that they were sincere: "(At this point I realized he was being 100% sincere and I truly had to bite my lip a bit to keep from giggling. But still, I was in awe of the guy.)" For this reason I have changed "probably sarcastically" to "apparently sincerely". The link for footnote 30 is http://www.fecalface.com/SF/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=949&Itemid=92
and the relevant passage begins
A: Do you feel that this sort of consumer-based art conflicts at all with the critique of consumer culture that you were doing with Devo?
I've also made a couple of changes of spacing and punctuation to the quote itself. Mothersbaugh's words have clearly been run together at the original website and I've separated them here. E.g. "iconit" should clearly be "icon it" Not sure what the guidelines are on this. Spicemix (talk) 18:52, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Are there any interesting results from these hypothesis? I've seen some videos illuding to them, by argon acucmilators promoting plant growth, etc. These are easily reproducible in regular homes, I'de love to try some out. All this guess work and quotations are not very helpful. --Namaste@? 09:23, 15 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I think cloudbuster should get merged in as a section of this article. they are both short, and cloudbuster is too heavily dependent on the pseudoscience of Orgone to stand alone properly (it's hard to talk about it without going into orgone theory). --Ludwigs2 16:37, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
The subtle energy identified by Reich characterized in the same terms as biofield energy. In effect, researchers today are replicating his work and carrying it further as the study of how intentionality influences this energy and the general health of an organism. For instance, Dr. Richard Gerber noted in his book, Vibrational Medicin Page 299-300, that (to paraphrase) energy healing applied to samples of enzymes changed the bioactivity and that the direction of change amongst the different kinds of enzymes always corresponded to the greater health of the organism.
