In this episode, I turn my attention to Derrida's groundbreaking essay, "Structure, Sign, and Play." It is here that he lays the foundation of what would become deconstruction, the destabilization of the assumed univocality of either term in a binary.

In this episode, I'm joined by Jeremy Smith once again to continue our excavation of Laruelle's work.

Jean Baudrillard's "The Evil Demon of Images" Sep 21, 2019

In this episode, I take on "The Evil Demon of Images," a text whose title contributes to what I believe to be a common misunderstanding about Baudrillard's work--the antithetical relationship assumed of simulation and reality.

Judith Butler's "Gender Trouble" (Part 2/2) Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this episode, I finish up Butler's "Gender Trouble." It is this episode that I dissect Butler's elusive notion of "performativity" and the potential it houses to challenge the oppressive regimen of sex.

Judith Butler's "Gender Trouble" (Part 1/2) Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

Note: *I discuss performativity at beginning and end of next episode!* In this episode, I take on Butler's "Gender Trouble," a seminal text in the fields of feminism and post-structuralism. Butler argues that some strands of feminist thought mistakenly attribute a transcendental significance to the idea of 'woman' that fails to account for the modes of discourse/power that construct that identity.

Jean Baudrillard's "The Intelligence of Evil or the Lucidity Pact" Sep 21, 2019

In this episode I explore what might be the last Baudrillard text I do. It is here that Baudrillard considers what is at stake with the advent of integral reality, the apotheosis of the oppressive simulacrum.

Jean Baudrillard's "Carnival & Cannibal/Ventriloquous Evil" Sep 21, 2019

In this text, we get a peak of Baudrillard's disdain for the West's global project of expansion, consuming otherness and thereby eradicating it under the pretense "scientific rationality," "truth," and "white superiority."

Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari's "Anti Oedipus" (Chapter 4/4) Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this final episode we are presented with schizoanalysis as a radical alternative to psychoanalysis. They are that schizoanalysis meets the ontological parameters of existence--being comprised of machines--and compels one to think not of themselves in terms of an overarching oedipal narrative, but rather to consider themselves as a machine among other machines.

Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari's "Anti Oedipus" (Chapter 3/4) Sep 21, 2019

In this episode, I take a stab at the 3rd (of 4) chapters from Anti-Oedipus. It is in this chapter that they present a historical overview of Oedipus' retroactive intervention in every epistemic paradigm. To this intervention, they charge that Oedipus is but a stranger in those fields, unable to actually present a meaningful solution to the apparent 'problems' found in those fields.

Gilles Deleuze & Félix Guattari's "Anti-Oedipus" (Chapter 2/4) Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this episode, I dive into the second (of four) chapters of Anti-Oedipus. It is here that they level their strongest critique of Oedipus and Freudian psychoanalysis while proposing an alternative way by which to understand the world: through syntheses.

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this episode, I begin my dissection of Deleuze and Guattari's Anti-Oedipus, an enigmatic book to say the least. In this chapter we're presented with their conception of desiring-machines that opposes the totalizing framework of the Oedipal complex.

Sigmund Freud's "Group Psychology and the Analysis of the Ego" Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy *NOTE* I don't think I did justice to Freud's discussion of neurosis towards the end. I'll have to save that for another episode. In this episode, I turn to Freud's work and his consideration of groups and the ego. In this book, Freud takes aim at the historical understanding of groups as a regressive phenomenon that, he argues, fails to recognize the role of the libido (love) in group formations.

Jean Baudrillard's "Why Hasn't Everything Already Disappeared" Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this episode, we ask the haunting title's question. What does it mean to disappear? Is disappearance a recourse to nihilism or to some new possibility? I try to answer these questions by contextualizing this book within Baudrillard's overarching projects.

Jean Baudrillard's "The Agony of Power" Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this episode, I turn my attention to Baudrillard's "The Agony of Power." This one clarifies Baudrillard's position on power, locating it within the domain of hegemony as opposed to domination. The former presents a much more pernicious mode of oppression for Baudrillard because of its transparency and its illusion of democratic egalitarianism.

Sara Ahmed's "Queer Phenomenology" Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this episode, I turn my attention to Sara Ahmed's "Queer Phenomenology." This book can be regarded as Ahmed's attempt to perform a queering of phenomenology while simultaneously sketching what a queer phenomenology might look like. To do this, she traverses through the phenomenological tradition to craft her own version of phenomenology and then apply them to the domains of race and sexuality.

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this episode, I turn my focus of posthumanism and Braidotti's seminal text, "The Posthuman." Braidotti's brand of posthumanism is a Deleuzian one, seeing the potential of becoming and deterritorialization to oppose the oppressive logic of commodification and identity in late capitalism.

Friedrich Nietzsche "On The Genealogy of Morality" Sep 21, 2019

In this episode, I try to present a coherent thread through Nietzsche "On the Genealogy of Morality." While it may easily be argued that Nietzsche dissuades any methodical reading of his work, I try to contextualize his arguments within the broader theme of the book and bring his ideas into the 21st century

Mary Beard's "Women and Power" Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this episode, I present Mary Beard's "Women & Power." The strength of Beard's text is her genealogical account of women being silenced throughout our history. I also try to simultaneously justify and challenge some of the liberal feminist notions that are present in this text.

Michel Foucault's "The History of Sexuality Vol. 2" (Part 1/3) Sep 21, 2019

Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/theoryandphilosophy

In this part, we move to the second volume of the History of Sexuality. In this books, Foucault extends his temporal scope of sexuality to go as far back as the Greeks. Foucault does this for a number of reasons but may, I believe, be understood primarily as his move to dissuade the argument that asceticism, or the control of sexuality, is a phenomenon rooted in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Bent Flyvbjerg's "Making Social Science Matter" Sep 21, 2019

Silly Mistake: I meant to say James Baldwin, the African-American activist, not Jon Baldwin. In this episode, I try to defend some of Baudrillard's more problematic claims regarding gender and race by contextualizing those claims within his broader project. Also, I try to unravel some of his more enigmatic approaches to the bifurcation he draws between reality and illusion.

Calasso is a thinker of sacrifice and ceremony, and proposes what these components of the 'old order' mean in the age of modernity. To do this, Calasso traverses from the tale of the ancient kingdom of Kasch to the Napoleonic politician Talleyrand to the limitations of Marxism.

This is the text that Baudrillard becomes extremely critical against the obscenity machine that forces everything into appearance.

In this episode, I continue my exploration of Ahmed's "Differences that Matter" and turn my attention to ethics, and the construction of women in Western Philosophy.

Please note: I mistakenly said that this book follows Simulacra & Simulation when, in fact, it precedes it. I got mixed up with the translation date and original date. Please keep this in mind when I speak about the relationship between the two texts. In this episode, I tackle Baudrillard's "Silent Majorities" to present his primary ideas concerning the media and the masses, and the relationship that they have to one another. Moreover, he takes an interesting stance on the role that terrorism plays in both, paradoxically, consolidating and resisting the repressive mechanisms of the media and the masses.
