    This special episode features a replay of Claire Colebrook’s presentation of her paper What’s Wrong with Extinction?, delivered at the Time, Waste, Extinction workshop held at Penn State University in September 2024. Acid Horizon was proud to collaborate with this event, bringing together leading thinkers to interrogate the cultural, ethical, and political frameworks through which extinction is commonly understood.

    In this talk, Claire challenges anthropocentric assumptions underlying ecological and ethical debates, urging a reconsideration of extinction beyond human survival and crisis narratives. The presentation offers a compelling exploration of extinction’s implications for life, ethics, and political imagination.

    Is Hegel Cool? Josh Wretzel's "The Coolness of the Absolute" Live at Webster's Cafe in State College, PA

    This episode features a live recording of The Coolness of the Absolute, an Acid Horizon event held in State College during the fall of 2024. Penn State philosophy professor Josh Wretzel reinterprets Hegel’s Jena Phenomenology as a moral psychology, exploring three varieties of moral personality and their culmination in absolute knowing. Josh connects these ideas to the cool jazz of Miles Davis, offering a profound reflection on how both philosophy and jazz embody calm contemplation amidst disruption.

    "Are We Still Able to Die?": https://camtology.substack.com/p/are-we-still-able-to-die

    In this episode of Acid Horizon, we are joined by philosopher and writer Cameron Carsten to discuss his recent blog post, "Are We Still Able to Die?"—the first installment in his series Power as Reality. Cameron’s work delves into the nature of power as the control over reality, tracing its manifestations through domination, hegemony, and the symbolic dimensions of life and death. Drawing on thinkers like Baudrillard, Foucault, Deleuze, and Guattari, this conversation also confronts urgent questions of meaning, fulfillment, and resistance in the shadow of the emerging Trump 2.0 era.

    'The War on the Social Factory' with Annie Paradise and Manolo Callahan

    Support the Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/acephalous/acephalous-the-erotic-tarot-of-georges-bataille

    But the 'War on the Social Factory': https://nupress.northwestern.edu/9780810146648/the-war-on-the-social-factory/

    About the book: 

    A collective ethnography of grassroots mobilizations for community safety across the Silicon Valley
     
    This is a narrative of struggle and solidarity and a collective toolkit for grassroots opposition to militarization, policing, and ongoing conditions of war in the current conjuncture of racial patriarchal capitalism. Grassroots researcher Annie Paradise presents here a collective ethnography of the mothers and community matriarchs whose children have been murdered by police across the San Francisco Bay Area as they develop and practice autonomous, creative forms of resistance.
     
    The War on the Social Factory: The Struggle for Community Safety in the Silicon Valley maps local families’ struggles to reclaim their households and their communities—to create a social infrastructure of care, justice, and safety outside state- and market-determined modes of “security.” Practices such as sustained vigil, testimony, and the production and circulation of insurgent knowledges are shown here to be part of interconnected justice efforts to demilitarize and decarcerate communities in the face of the multiple forms of violence enacted under late racial patriarchal capitalism. Paradise examines the expanding carceral processes of enclosure, criminalization, dispossession, expropriation, and disposability that mark the neoliberal "security” regime across the Silicon Valley and offers counter-counterinsurgent strategies and practices of co-generative, dynamic resistance.

    'The Philosophy of Movement: An Introduction' with Thomas Nail

    Please fund the Acéphalous Kickstarter today!: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/acephalous/acephalous-the-erotic-tarot-of-georges-bataille

    Acid Horizon and Stuart Kendall live at the Durations Festival on November 9th, 2024: https://publicrecords.nyc/events/durations-festival-2024/

    Buy Thomas' book: https://www.upress.umn.edu/9781517917456/the-philosophy-of-movement/

    About 'The Philosophy of Movement: An Introduction': 

    Why are city dwellers worldwide walking on average ten percent faster than they were a decade ago? Why are newcomer immigrant groups so often maligned when migration has always constituted civilization? To analyze and understand the depth of the reasons, Thomas Nail suggests that it serves us well to turn to a philosophy of movement. Synthesizing and extending many years of his influential work, The Philosophy of Movement is a comprehensive argument for how motion is the primary force in human and natural history.

    Nail critiques the bias toward stasis at the core of Western thought, asking: what would a philosophy that began with the primacy of movement look like? Interrogating the consequences of movement throughout history and in daily life in the twenty-first century, he draws connections and traces patterns between scales of reality, periods of history, and fields of knowledge. In our age of rapid movements shaped by accelerating climate change and ensuing mass global migration, as well as ubiquitous digital media, Nail provides a contemporary philosophy that helps us understand how we got here and how to grapple with these interlocking challenges.

    With a foreword by philosopher Daniel W. Smith, The Philosophy of Movement: An Introduction is a must-read for scholars and students not only of philosophy but also history, anthropology, science and technology studies, mobility studies, and other fields across the humanities and social sciences.

    'Machine and Sovereignty: For a Planetary Thinking' with Yuk Hui

    Support the Kickstarter: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/acephalous/acephalous-the-erotic-tarot-of-georges-bataille

    Buy the book from University of Minnesota Press: https://www.upress.umn.edu/9781517917418/machine-and-sovereignty/

    What is “planetary thinking” today? Arguing that a new approach is urgently needed, Yuk Hui develops a future-oriented mode of political thought that encompasses the unprecedented global challenges we are confronting: the rise of artificial intelligence, the ecological crisis, and intensifying geopolitical conflicts.

    Machine and Sovereignty starts with three premises. The first affirms the necessity of developing a new language of coexistence that surpasses the limits of nation-states and their variations; the second recognizes that political forms, including the polis, empire, and the state, are technological phenomena, which Lewis Mumford terms “megamachines.” The third suggests that a particular political form is legitimated and rationalized by a corresponding political epistemology. The planetary thinking that this book sketches departs from the opposition between mechanism and organism, which characterized modern thought, to understand the epistemological foundations of Hegel’s political state and Schmitt’s Großraum and their particular ways of conceiving the question of sovereignty. Through this reconstruction, Hui exposes the limits of the state and reflects on a new theoretical matrix based on the interrelated concepts of biodiversity, noodiversity, and technodiversity.

    Arguing that we are facing the limit of modernity, of the eschatological view of history, of globalization, and of the human, Hui conceives necessary new epistemological and technological frameworks for understanding and rising to the crises of our present and our future.
