Book 'The Goofy Sufi' probes the mind..

Surfersvillage Global Surf News, 23 October, 2009 : - - The goofy Sufi and his parameters of perception is a profoundly analytical essay by Australian surfer and intellectual, Dan Webber, whose philosophy of Surfism uses surfing as a metaphor for psychological processes. The perceptual link between surfboard design and surfing provides a way into the mind by showing how spatial perception underpins mindness.

Webber draws on a range of interrelated phenomena to present an ontological perspective that transcends the limitations inherent in spatial relations. In the preface, Webber gives a brutally honest account of the circumstances that fueled his analytic mind. The brother of renowned shaper, Greg Webber, Dan shares a unique perspective on the Webber family, adding to their portfolio of creative endeavours.
