On spectacle: oh yeah, defintely. That's one thing I like about the occult philosophy JMG has introduced me to - it helps to make that distinction very clear and gives a good, solid way to think about it. It is perhaps one of the ironies of the modern world that so many folks spend so much time immersed in the non-material, but if you asked them what they believe about the world, they'd say that only the material world is real.
On making things: very much so! It really is shocking how meaningful it is to make something with your hands when you almost never do so. I'm always pleasantly surprised by how great it feels to do something crafty, even if I'm not very good at it.
