Rushkoff is known for being an active member of the cyberpunk movement and was the online associate of Timothy Leary.

This extends to his broader philosophy as the founder of an online community for discussion of Judaism and related issues, called Open Source Judaism.In 2003 Rushkoff was keyboard player for a short-term line-up of Psychic TV. |
