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...
What happens when two experimental music veterans go full Smashmouth? Callahan and Witscher's new album Think Differently answers just that-full of wry introspection on the conditions of music, it's value, and despite misreads by music journalists as being "irony poisoned"-comes across as uniquely sincere in a way most things don't. We talk about the album, what is the value of a critique? flexing on critics with pure musical chops, nu-fluxus, low-brow messaging, the rise of "tastecels", the value of humor, sleeping on floors and slogging it out on the road, why you can't stop creating, destroying your life, going to shows you don't want to, Fairport Convention, and attempt to answer the question: "What is the value of music?"

Episode on the history of non/anti-cybernetics (Game/Automata/Double Bind Theory) developed in the UK, US, USSR, and China and what that means for us today: cognitive autonomy, surveillance, breaking out of the cyberculture, etc. Throught the 20th century complexity studies were conducted globally by social psychologists, computer scientists, and mathematicians in capitalist and socialist countries alike, and despite them all adopting the same trendy word at one point or another: "Cybernetics", that wasn't exactly what they were all just doing. And they certainly weren't aiming for the same outcome of streamlined logistical matrices--and depending on the cultural, social, and national context, sometimes aimed for the opposite!
The project turned four for so bod [包家巷] proposed we do a rundown of every single episode of from 1 until 170 and "react" to each one - the good, the bad, the ugly - every single phase from this nebulous, undefined sociology project. Afterthoughts on what worked and what didn't work, who to trust, where things are headed, and more. From cult leaders to Soundcloud rappers to transhumanists and 21st c. philosophers-after 4 long years I have finally found out what this show is about.

Why do ideas that seemed radical just 6 months ago seem so played out now? Does repetition yield new becomings or burnout? Rituals can be an answer to the production of the self and the excessive search for trends and novelty. Rituals bring closure while stabilizing life and allow it to flourish. We look at all this through Byung Chul Han’s The Disappearance of Rituals, Werner Schroeter’s adaptation of the book Malina, and Desert Islands by Giles Deleuze…

We talk about erotic poetry and the language of love, from the anonymous, steamy, adulterous lais of Marie De France to Heloise and Abbard and William Blake; an appreciation of The Ladies, just 'understanding' things, making theorycels angry, and some great advice from the bear himself. He has been described as an 'instant anti-depressant'.

The crypto market has crashed. Comedy philosophy is The Key. In this episode, me and Bienstock dive deep into the idiosyncratic concept the Spectre of Finance Punk and discuss some of its conceptual origins: Leibniz, Monad theory, Chaosophy, Concept Art, Post-Art, and Mail Art, and probably the least boring explanation of Francois Laruelle Non-Philosophy around.
