Sepher Da'ath: The Book of Un-Knowing is a more personal six part text with a great many images & dream poetry that deal with what Kenneth Grant (Typhonian Tradition) called The Mauve Zone & 616 calls The Kingdom of Un-Knowing. Da'ath (traditionally known as "Knowledge" on The Tree of Life & Gate-Way to The Tree of Death) is the great mystery of the Qabalah & 616 had to sink his teeth into in "It" in order to "unite the gold & the mauve". 616 M.A. is an artist-magickian from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada who, for over the last thirty years, has been tempering his academic background in English, Philosophy & Education with his passionate exploration of magick, music & the visual arts.

In 1998, he self-published Imago & edited the twenty-five volume set of The Beacon between 1993 & 1999. Since 2000, 616 established himself & the locus of The LRG in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. He released typhOnia (2007), a 15 minute film which is a surreal dream ritual; a synthesis of all his artistic endeavors. The Black Book of Shaitan: Nu Revelation (2014) was also released as well as the first three volumes of The Black Tradition Trilogies, selling 400 copies through consignment & a previous distribution deal. He recently concluded his experimental 16 years of teaching various adults from around the world & his current sabbatical will be ending soon. 616 has been seeking, finding & refining his magick for the last twenty years in Toronto, somewhere under the Shaitan (CN) Tower.
