Acid Horizon
Mysticism Without Transcendence? Laruelle's 'Vision-in-One' with Jeremy R. Smith

Follow Vintagia: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/acidhorizon/vintagia-i-ching-oracle-for-psychogeographers-and-creativesIn this special crossover episode of LEPHT HAND and Acid Horizon, we explore the radical mysticism of François Laruelle through his essay Vision-in-One or Unlearned Knowing. Laruelle proposes a mysticism stripped of transcendence and doctrine—one grounded in solitude, immanence, and the irreducibility of lived experience. Our guest, translator Jeremy R. Smith, helps unpack Laruelle's challenge to Neoplatonism, dialectics, and the pedagogical authority of philosophy. Along the way, we consider how this "unlearned knowing" might offer tools for thinking mysticism on the left, beyond both theology and theory.Vision-in-One or Unlearned Knowing: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1n-i7-kfCt_ykSxrMrUIeNxLwLKcCzcl3LbSJCR_etVQ/edit?tab=t.0 Support the showSupport the podcast:https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcast Boycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/ Join The Schizoanalysis Project: https://discord.gg/4WtaXG3QxnSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438 LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.com​Revolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.com​Split Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/​Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/

Two titanic figures in contemporary theory join us for two separate and strongly divergent episodes on the status of revolutionary thought in political philosophy today. Ray Brassier influenced a generation of philosophers not only with his outstanding and highly rigorous writing, but also his absolutely stunning translations of Quentin Meillassoux and François Laruelle, and in so doing is subcutaneously responsible for literally a decade of earthquakes in the discourse. Ray joins us to evaluate the status of Marx in the 21st century.Ray traces the long arc from Nihil Unbound through Marx, Sellars, and the inferentialist tradition, opening up an unapologetically rationalist framework for understanding both science and emancipation, without reducing either to liberal platitudes or metaphysical fantasies. We discuss the seductive dangers of naive anti-humanism, the legacy of German idealism, the automation of reason, and why political theory today needs to be deeply embedded in materialist accounts of scale, finance, and abstraction. Ray shares a trenchant critique of both the empiricist and idealist strands of Enlightenment thought, offering instead a dialectical, normatively grounded, socially embedded concept of rationality that returns to Kant and Hegel by way of Wilfrid Sellars. We strongly recommend:Ray's book Nihil Unbound: Enlightenment and Extinction His essay “The View from Nowhere”His exceptional piece "Politics of the Rift" on Théorie Communiste in e-fluxWork from the journal Endnotes (https://endnotes.org.uk/)In the episode, we also discuss theorists such as Badiou, Larouelle, Meillassoux, and Marxist reinterpretations by Moishe Postone, Théorie Communiste, and the German “New Reading” school. Ray elaborates on how capital's increasing abstraction—especially in financialized regimes where labor is decoupled from value—is not the end of Marx, but a reason to read Marx more seriously and materially than ever.

3hr30 min tribute to the non-philosophical thought of François Lauruelle...full episode Francois Laruelle was a French philosopher who developed the concept of "non-philosophy." His work influenced facets of the project (particularly The Spectre of Finance Punk) through his critiques of traditional philosophical systems that prioritized the material and empirical over abstract theorizations + his non-historical/non-mystical encounters with science, art, and spirituality through his mediations on the One (the Real). He sadly passed away last week so it seemed fitting to do an episode on him and try to bring forth some of his ideas a bit in reference to the state of things and ask some pretty broad "what if questions" using the Non-Philosophy magnifying utensil. What would he think of Country Music and barbecue...

Vladimir Putin's regime has increasingly been accused of embracing fascism, in its annexation of Crimea, its historical revisionism, attacks on liberal democratic values, and its support for far-right movements in Europe. These tendencies have accelerated with the full-scale war in Ukraine. So, does Russia now meet the diverse criteria for historic fascism, or it's off-shoot, German Nazism? Russia has successfully muddied the waters, by branded itself as the world's preeminent antifascist power because of its sacrifices during the Second World War. But Russia continues to weaponize and debase that legacy of WWII, embracing the same characteristics, policies, and tactics of the axis powers. ---------- Marlène Laruelle is Research Professor of the Illiberalism studies department at the Institute for European, Russian and Eurasian Studies (IERES) at the George Washington University.

In this episode, Nick and Eliza talk with widely respected historian and sociologist Marlène Laruelle about the concept of illiberalism and its spread across Europe. Dr. Laruelle explains how she frames the relatively new term as a cluster of ideologies that is challenging liberalism in its various forms, mostly based around two key arguments: (1) the need for sovereignty, and (2) the idea that traditional hierarchy must be reinforced and protected. She also talks about Russia's rebranding of itself as an anti-colonial power in order to appeal to the Global South which she holds has been a successful and efficient tactic that resonates with nations opposed to European and Western overreach. Thanks for listening! ABOUT THE GUEST Dr. Marlène Laruelle is the Director of the Illiberalism Studies Program and former Director of the Institute for European, Russian, and Eurasian Studies (IERES) at George Washington University. She works on the rise of populist and illiberal movements in post-Soviet Eurasia, Europe and the US. Trained in political philosophy, she explores how nationalism and conservative values are becoming mainstream in different cultural contexts. She focuses on Russia's ideological landscape and its outreach abroad. She has been also working on Central Asia's nationhood and regional environment, as well as on Russia's Arctic policy.

Regular guest to the podcast Glenn Wallis wrote  A Critique of Western Buddhism: Ruins of the Buddhist Real (Bloomsbury) back in 2018. Time has flown since and in honour of the non-Buddhism project, and some interesting news coming up, the Imperfect Buddha Podcast presents this audio review of the text that will serve as a useful introduction to the topic itself for those new to the world of this controversial set of theories and practices.  “The single most important book of contemporary Buddhist philosophic reflection. Wallis' critique masterfully addresses the twinned questions central to contemporary Buddhism: 'What use is being made of Buddhism today?' and 'What use is Buddhism today?'” ―Richard K. Payne, Yehan Numata Professor of Japanese Buddhist Studies, Institute of Buddhist Studies, USA “Wallis' Critique is a bold commentary and analysis of Western Buddhism that runs against the mainstream. His central arguments are convincing and should certainly enter into discussions of "mindfulness" practices and adaptions of Buddhism in Western societies. This book will challenge the thinking and practice of many readers, make some uncomfortable, but will be a life preserver for others.” ―Stuart W Smithers, Chair of the Department of Religious Studies, University of Puget Sound, USA “It is a very rare and precious thing to find a book such as this, which engages as deeply with religious materials as it does with the philosophical. Glenn Wallis brings together resources from Continental philosophy, namely François Laruelle's non-philosophy, and concepts and ideas from Buddhism to carry out a A fecund project that grows in the ruins of our philosophical and religious pretensions and arrogance.”” ―Anthony Paul Smith, Associate Professor of Philosophical Theology, La Salle University, USA Matthew O'Connell is a life coach and the host of the The Imperfect Buddha podcast.

Freddie Sayers meets Marlene Laruelle.Aleksandr Dugin, the ultra-nationalist Russian philosopher and erstwhile organiser of the National Bolshevik Party, has been referred to as ‘Putin's brain'. Professor Marlene Laruelle, the world's leading expert on Dugin, says his influence is no longer direct. Dugin stated mission is to preserve the "Russian soul" and expand the Eurasian empire in defiance of the West. Today, Russia's invasion of Ukraine and increasingly isolated global position feels like some of these visions have become a dark reality. Freddie Sayers sat down with Laruelle to seek a deeper understanding of the oft-quoted concept of the "Russian soul", what Dugin wants and how Putin might be able to help him get it.Read the Post article here: See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

HYPER-THINKING THE ABSOLUTE: Badiou, Laruelle, Zizek

In the 1980s, Laruelle's radical thought experiment led him to a thought of the Absolute as primary and to envisage the Absolute as subject. He analyses the failure of symbolisation to capture the real, both in the failure of structuralist signification and in the failure of Deleuzian « sense ». Subjects discussed: the Absolute turn, the Subject, bio-materialism and democratic relativism, Badiou and Zizek, Laruelle in the 1980s as vanishing mediator, repeating the 80s today.

HYPER-THINKING THE ABSOLUTE: Badiou, Laruelle, Zizek

Alain Badiou in his IMMANENCE OF TRUTHS (French 2018, English 2022) took the « Absolute turn », deciding to show how mundane multiplicities appeared when viewed from the Absolute as point of departure. François Laruelle made a similar turn in 1985, beginning with the Absolute as transcendental field and as perspective on mundane multiplicities. What are the points of convergence and divergence between the two approaches?

Laruelle's radical thought experiment using Deleuze's philosophy as raw material identifies an agon between multiplicities and difference in the most radical thought of Contemporary Continental Philosophy and attempts to think the pure transcendental field extracted in Deleuze's LOGIC OF SENSE as composed of multiplicities without difference.

HYPER-THINKING THE ABSOLUTE: Badiou, Laruelle, Zizek

This audiobook is an attempt at a linear reading of François Laruelle's A BIOGRAPHY OF ORDINARY MAN. In this chapter I discuss the Foreword, concentrating on elucidating the « transvalued » or non-authoritarian meanings of a set of seemingly familiar words: biography, system, principle, foundation, rigour, science, order, and linear reading.

HYPER-THINKING THE ABSOLUTE: Badiou, Laruelle, Zizek

In this episode I discuss why one should read Laruelle from the point of view of six criteria: anti-authoritarianism, hyper-deconstruction, positivity, the Absolute, synthesis of humanity and rigour, and de-schooling philosophy.

HYPER-THINKING THE ABSOLUTE: Badiou, Laruelle, Zizek

This is the first audio chapter in a hyper-book devoted to a reading of François Laruelle's A BIOGRAPHY OF ORDINARY MAN. I plan to make the first book-length Reader's Guide, in Hyper-Book form, to a book by François Laruelle, A BIOGRAPHY OF ORDINARY MAN, which was translated into English only recently, in 2018. I think it was translated at the right time, in a certain sense. Although the book came out in French 36 years ago, in 1985, it has acquired a new contemporaneity, in relation to various types of philosophical work and projects that have come up recently, notably in relation to the turn to the "Absolute" that was instantiated in Deleuze and Guattari's WHAT IS PHILOSOPHY? and continued in major works in dialogue with this turn: François Laruelle's TETRALOGOS, Alain Badiou's IMMANENCE OF TRUTHS, and Slavoj Zizek's SEX AND THE FAILED ABSOLUTE.

In our episode on the non-philosophy of Laruelle, Jeremy mentioned a section from The Gay Science that was important to Laruelle's reading of Nietzsche.  Verse 346 and the verses that precede it tie together many important strands in the Acid Horizon extended universe; they form a thread which runs through our episode on Laruelle and Deleuze's attack on the dogmatic image of thought which we covered in our D&R reading group. This excerpt also includes Nietzsche's notion of "the greatest weight", which is one of Nietzsche's more notable sections of text within the broader arc of his anti-moralism.  Together, verses 341-346 act as nice complement to some of the work we and our patrons find exciting.Contribute to Acid Horizon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcastSubscribe to us on Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/169wvvhi Happy Hour at Hippel's (Adam's blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.comNew Revolts (Matt's Blog): https://newrevolts.com/​Revolting Bodies (Will's Blog): https://revoltingbodies.com​Split Infinities (Craig's Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/​Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/​Merch Store: http://www.crit-drip.com

In Is Russia Fascist?  (Cornell University Press), author Marlene Laruelle argues that the charge of "fascism" has become a strategic narrative of the current world order. Vladimir Putin's regime has increasingly been accused of embracing fascism, supposedly evidenced by Russia's annexation of Crimea, its historical revisionism, attacks on liberal democratic values, and its support for far-right movements in Europe. But at the same time, Russia has branded itself as the world's preeminent antifascist power because of its sacrifices during the Second World War, while emphasizing how opponents to the Soviet Union in Central and Eastern Europe collaborated with Nazi Germany.By labeling ideological opponents as fascist, regardless of their actual values or actions, geopolitical rivals are able to frame their own vision of the world and claim the moral high ground. Through a detailed examination of the Russian domestic scene and the Kremlin's foreign policy rationales, Laruelle disentangles the foundation for, meaning, and validity of accusations of fascism in and around Russia.Buy Is Russia Fascist? now from:Cornell University Press: bit.ly/rpodrussiaAmazon: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1501754130Join the author and experts in discussion on March 26th 2021: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/142568605537

We engage with the existentialism of Benjamin Fondane, an existentialist philosopher who is not widely celebrated in the English speaking world but whose name enjoys renown among Francophones. Craig, Will, Adam, and Taylor look at “Existential Monday and the Sunday of History”, an essay which seeks to define the role of the existential philosopher against those philosophies which he claims erase or obscure ‘the existent’. Other figures in the discussion include Hegel, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Camus, Sartre, Simondon, Deleuze, and Laruelle.

In an attempt to make more sense of non-Philosophy, and therefore non-Buddhism, I interview Irish philosopher and academic John O Maoilearca, the author of All Thoughts Are Equal, an exceptionally accessible introduction to the work of that pesky French philosopher Francois Laruelle, who we've been name dropping on the podcast for quite some time. Laruelle's work navigates an interesting paradox. On the one hand it can be incredibly straightforward, perhaps more so for those who have not been indoctrinated into philosophical thought. On the other, it presents a wide range of challenges to established philosophy and systematic modes of thought, including those found in Buddhism. We talk about non-philosophy as a heuristic in this regard, therefore as a kind of practice that people can engage in, and experience certain kinds of liberation through. A practice, I would argue, that compliments Buddhist ideals and fits perfectly well into the practicing life for those intrigued by post-traditional explorations of Buddhist materials, notions and practice techniques. In part, this episode acts as a preparation for grappling with non-Philosophy and so we unpack three of its most important concepts. Topics include; • What makes Laruelle's non-Philosophy so radical and so intriguing for the world we live in today? • The Democracy of Thought. • What are we to make of the democratization in an age of alternative facts, and the difficulty of distinguishing narrative and reality in polarized times? • Decision, sufficiency, and The Real. • The most important contribution John's book makes to Laurellian thought. • Where non-philosophy is heading. • Henri Bergson & Mysticism.

PODCAST #09 Ernesto Castro Profesor de Filosofía Antigua y Medieval (Universidad de Zaragoza) Moderador: Fernando Manjarrés (Editor Materia Oscura) Título “Introducción a la no-filosofía de François Laruelle”. Resumen Ernesto Castro nos hablará de su último libro editado por Materia Oscura “Realismo Postcolonial”, del filósofo François Laruelle para profundizar en su obra “Principios de no-filosofía”. Nos adentraremos en el realismo especulativo siguiendo la línea que vertebra la serie de podcasts que nos ofrece Materia Oscura, a través de la dirección de Fernando Manjarrés (nuevamente como moderador de la charla). La no-filosofía no es la negación de toda filosofía, sino que es una axiomática distinta. Estas reflexiones, junto con el realismo especulativo y postcontinental, abren el campo a la filosofía a pensar desde un prisma más liberador. Ernesto, a su vez, nos aporta nuevas reflexiones sobre la actual pandemia y de cómo todo esto, está influyendo en el campo del arte. Ernesto Castro (Madrid, 1990) es doctor en Filosofía por la Universidad Complutense de Madrid y profesor de Filosofía Antigua y Medieval en la Universidad de Zaragoza. Ha escrito y publicado los libros de ensayo Contra la postmodernidad (Alpha Decay, 2011), Un palo al agua: ensayos de estética (Micromegas, 2016), El trap: filosofía millennial para la crisis en España (Errata Naturae, 2019), Realismo poscontinental: ontología y epistemología para el siglo XXI (Materia Oscura, 2020) y Ética, estética y política (en prensa).

I discuss American novelist Cormac McCarthy with literary scholar Dr Julius Greve. Cormac McCarthy is known for his often bleak and unwavering take on the Western. He has written over ten novels, as well as plays and screenplays in the Southern Gothic literary tradition. Less discussed is the philosophical dimension of McCarthy’s novels. With Julius I discussed how philosophy is present in the  Blood Meridian, Suttree, The Orchard Keeper, The Road, Child of God, No Country for Old Men, The Border Trilogy and Outer Dark. We touched on ecocentrism, geocentric criticism, panpsychism, violence, myth and science and the role of German Idealism in McCarthy's work. Central to Julius’ interpretation is  the idea that McCarthy offers a synthesis of Orphic and Promethean myths, which offers a very human blend of grief and grace. Julius Greve is a lecturer and research associate at the Institute for English and American Studies, University of Oldenburg, Germany. He is the author of Shreds of Matter: Cormac McCarthy and the Concept of Nature (Dartmouth College Press, 2018), and of numerous articles on McCarthy, Mark Z. Danielewski, François Laruelle, and speculative realism. Greve has co-edited America and the Musical Unconscious (Atropos, 2015), Superpositions: Laruelle and the Humanities (Rowman & Littlefield International, 2017), “Cormac McCarthy Between Worlds” (a special issue of EJAS: European Journal of American Studies, 2017), and Spaces and Fictions of the Weird and the Fantastic: Ecologies, Geographies, Oddities (Palgrave Macmillan, 2019). He is currently working on a manuscript on the relation between modern poetics and ventriloquism. You can find out more about Julius here.

 DEMOCRACY IN TROUBLE?  Interviewer: MATTHEW BERKMAN. The United States, and Western democracies more generally, currently view Russia through the lens of their own internal crises, argues MARLENE LARUELLE, expert on Russian politics and author of Understanding Russia: The Challenges of Transformation. In her discussion with political scientists and Mitchell Center interviewer Matthew Berkman, Laruelle describes how the focus on election interference distorts our vision of Russia, portraying it as a closed-off society under monolithic authoritarian rule, guided by an implacable opposition to free democracies rather than geopolitical interests. By placing Russia outside of “international norms,” Western democracies are also able to deflect the way in which they have progressively undermined many of those norms themselves, especially as anti-liberal and anti-democratic movements gain steam. Ultimately, Laruelle counsels against anti-Russian hysteria and for a more clear-eyed view of the world.

The second interview has much better sound quality) Why would a modern day Buddhist engage with the work of non-Buddhism? Why bother to be forced to question your relationship with Buddhism? Why risk destabilising the status quo? Why not carry on as usual? If the last episode didn't convince you, maybe the man who started the thing will. The instigator of the non-Buddhism project graces the Imperfect Buddha podcast with his presence and with such rich material and such a sharp mind, we couldn’t contain everything in a single episode. The humanity shines through and for those who may have been unsettled when approaching the revolutionary work at the Speculative non-Buddhism site, will find the content of the podcast surprising. This is not to say there has been any loss of the sharp critique many will be familiar with, non-Buddhism has work to do and there is no shying away from its powerful insights. Part of what emerges in our discussion is the need to go further: to question, to reflect, to delve, to think it all through and appreciate the limits of what we know, and pretend to know. Throughout, we talk about the speculative non-Buddhism heuristic and expand on many of the topics we touched on in our last episode. We also cover the how of applying non-Buddhism as a form of practice and to thinking critically about Buddhism, the relationship between the individual and society, and the changes that can take place when non-philosophy is applied. Glenn Wallis Bio Glenn holds a Ph.D. in Buddhist studies from Harvard University's Department of Sanskrit and Indian Studies. His scholarly work focuses on various aspects of Buddhism. For a long time, he was concerned with how to make classical Buddhist literature, philosophy, and practice relevant to contemporary life. His recent work is best summed up in the title for a book he is currently writing for Bloomsbury: A Critique of Western Buddhism: The Self-Help Myth with critique drawing from François Laruelle's non-philosophy and Peter Sloterdijk's anthropotechnic. Since the early 1990s, he has taught in the religion departments of several universities, including the University of Georgia (where he received tenure), Brown University, Bowdoin College, and the Rhode Island School of Design and the Won Institute of Graduate Studies.

Josef talks to Clayton Crockett about his new collaborative project An Insurrectionist Manifesto: Four New Gospels for a Radical Politics, which also features Ward Blanton, Jeff Robbins, and Noëlle Vahanian. Foreword by Peter Rollins, Preface by Creston Davis, and Afterword by Catherine Keller. An Insurrectionist Manifesto contains four insurrectionary gospels based on Martin Heidegger's philosophical model of the fourfold: earth and sky, gods and mortals. Challenging religious dogma and dominant philosophical theories, they offer a cooperative, world-affirming political theology that promotes new life through not resurrection but insurrection. The insurrection in these gospels unfolds as a series of miraculous yet worldly practices of vital affirmation. Since these routines do not rely on fantasies of escape, they engender intimate transformations of the self along the very coordinates from which they emerge. Enacting a comparative and contagious postsecular sensibility, these gospels draw on the work of Slavoj Žižek, Giorgio Agamben, Catherine Malabou, François Laruelle, Peter Sloterdijk, and Gilles Deleuze yet rejuvenate scholarship in continental philosophy, critical race theory, the new materialisms, speculative realism, and nonphilosophy. They think beyond the sovereign force of the one to initiate a radical politics "after" God.

Please join us for the release and discussion of a new CSIS Europe Program report, The New Ice Curtain: Russia’s Strategic Reach to the Arctic, which examines Russia’s economic, energy, and security strategies and aspirations in the Arctic, and the evolution of the Kremlin’s Arctic policies over the past decade.  On the eve of President Obama’s and Secretary of State John Kerry’s visit to Anchorage, Alaska where they will convene Arctic and non-Arctic leaders to discuss climate impact and resilience, and global leadership in the Arctic, it is a timely moment to better understand the largest and most dynamic Arctic actor and to assess whether the Arctic will remain a cooperative region or succumb to geopolitical tensions.   Report author Heather A. Conley and project consultant Dr. Marlène Laruelle will examine the significant changes in Russia’s Arctic policies and rhetoric – particularly since President Putin’s return to the Kremlin in 2012 – and offer their insights on Russia’s military posturing in the region, as well as how to develop new collaborative thinking to preserve and protect international Arctic cooperation.  New York Times correspondent Steven Lee Myers, who has written about and traveled frequently to the Russian Arctic, will offer his reflections on the report and assess whether the development of a 21st century “ice curtain” is realistic.  The panelists will also preview the upcoming August 31st meeting in Alaska and assess the impact of the potential attendance of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov on U.S.-Russian cooperation in the Arctic. Featuring   Dr. Marlène Laruelle Research Professor of International Affairs, George Washington University   and   Steven Lee Myers Correspondent, The New York Times   Introduced and moderated by   Heather A. Conley Senior Vice President for Europe, Eurasia and the Arctic, CSIS Europe Program    This event is made possible by support from the MacArthur Foundation.

“The chief aim of [philosopher Francois Laruelle’s] life’s work is to consider philosophy without resorting to philosophy in order to do so.” What is non-philosophy, what would it look like to practice it, and what are the implications of doing so? Alexander R. Galloway introduces and explores these questions in a vibrant and thoughtful new book. Laruelle: Against the Digital (University of Minnesota Press, 2014) uses Francois Laruelle’s non-philosophy as a foundation for considering the philosophical concept of digitality. In a series of ten chapters (plus intro and conclusion) and 14 theses, Galloway offers an exceptionally clear and provocative treatment of digitality as a way of thinking about and with difference. In addition to offering a critical encounter with some of the most fundamental aspects of Laruelle’s work as they open up ways of thinking about identity, distinction, and exchange, the book also contains some wonderful discussions of brightness and obscurity, representation and aesthetics, computation, photography, music, ethics, and capitalism, while putting the work of Laruelle into dialogue with Deleuze, Badiou, Marx, Althusser, and others. It’s an exciting work, and I will be re-reading and thinking with it for some time to come. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

There you can also watch video of Joshua Ramey, Alex Dubilet, and myself discussing recent Laruelle translations.  I won’t pretend that the opening remarks are not raw or that they are incredibly intellectual. Like many of you I am dismayed and enraged by the Ferguson grand jury decision. Divorcing that emotional register from theoretical work strikes me as doing a disservice to both one’s emotional life and their intellectual work. So, I figured let it show.  Music in today’s episode is J. Cole’s tribute to Mike Brown, “Be Free”.

We are about $70 short of our overall budget, so if you are able to throw $5 our way please consider donating via PayPal. Owing to a generous donation from JCRT and GAIN, I won’t be broadcasting the audio, but they will instead be hosting video of the seminars. I’ll still be using that time to interview folks for the show, though, and a link to the free video will be posted here for those who are interested.  The music featured in the show today comes from El Heath’s “A Cold Day In Spring” and Blue Ducks’ “Falling Asleep In Fhloston Paradise”.

After the towering figures of the postwar generation, as well as the more recent prominence in the Anglophone world of thinkers like Badiou, Rancière and Laruelle, what does the current intellectual landscape look like in France? What are the philosophic developments in the current context? What are the recognizable trends and tendencies in the younger generation? Join us for a wide-ranging discussion that takes as its point of departure the iconic figures of the Anglophone translation regime in order to explore the voices that it excludes and the patterns of intellectual development that cannot be readily assimilated into the linear trajectory of Existentialism, Structuralism, Poststructuralism and beyond.
