    Theory & Philosophy

    Welcome! My name’s David Guignion and I distill complicated philosophical and theoretical ideas for wide audiences. While ideas are important to help us understand the world, it is even more important to put ideas into action. Some of this channel’s key theoretical and pragmatic influences include, but are not limited to, Marxism, Decolonialization, Feminism, Gender and Queer theory, and Critical Race Theory.

    This channel’s content is recorded on the in Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal, the traditional territory of the Kanien’kehà:ka, comprised of
    the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, Huron/Wendat, Abenaki, and Anishinaabeg.

    In this episode, I begin my presentation of Kelly Oliver's "Witnessing: Beyond Recognition." In this book she tries to conceptualize an anti-oppressive political strategy that is not predicated upon difference, but that is focused on the similarities that bind people. I'm joined by Helene Bigras-Dutrisac to impart her expertise of chapter 4!

    Introduction: Beyond Recognition (Beginning)

    Ch. 1: Domination, Multiculturalism, and the Pathology of Recognition (21:15)

    Ch. 3: Identity as Subordination, Abjection and Exclusion (37:36)

    In this episode, I continue and finish my presentation of Theodor Adorno's "The Culture Industry." Some of the key takeaways from this half include Adorno's appropriation of Freud's theories to understand the rise of Fascism; Adorno's critique of Benjamin; and Adorno's faith in theory as a form of praxis.

    In this episode, I present the first three chapter of Theodor Adorno's "The Culture Industry." Adorno levels a strong critique against mass culture here, highlighting the effects of alienation under advanced industrial capitalism

    In this episode, I present Roland Barthes' seminal essay, "The Death of the Author." Here he argues that the possibility for interpretation of the text must follow the erasure of the "Author-God" as the bearer of the truth of the text. I try to untangle what I believe to be some misconceptions about Barthes' argument at the end.

    In this episode, I turn my attention to Judith Butler's "Undoing Gender." This is a collection of essays, so it is difficult to summarize the book. However, we can comfortably say that it explores what it means for gender to become undone, and the undoing that is done through gender.

    In this episode, I'm joined by Christina, PhD candidate at the Center for the Study of Theory and Criticism at the University of Western Ontario, to systematically dissect Gilles Deleuze's "Cinema 1: The Movement Image." This is an enigmatic book, treading the line between philosophy and film theory, and never committing to one nor the other. This episode covers from the "Action-Image" chapter to the end.
