Living Torch part 2

beautiful speech

She has no filter. She's beautiful.

Great work. Love their Borders CD.

beautiful lecture!

Critical theory existed before ww1?

Since Oct 7 , I see Dr Dean as the only theorist left standing, since I used an unholy alliance of Jack Barnes, Jodi Dean, Nina Power and Chris Cutrone, Amazingly I did pretty good union work with these diverse touchstones!

Still so Eurocentric lol - as if corpses were not ubiquitous before WWII?

Elena Cohen :0

"The fuck. When ya'll gunna fucking end this shit."

😶

Your art and research is so wonderful! That is very cool that you are bridging art and science! I learned a lot about the resounding/persisting affects of colonialism. Thank you for advocating for climate Justice! 🌱💚

Imaginations are being stolen from our children early in their childhoods because of violence and racism. Those children didn’t even have an imagination because they were too focused on not being harmed through violence.

lived "with" Martin for 2 years from 1969 to 1970 out in the woods in the Santa Cruz mountains in California. He lived in his "Martin's Pod" & I in a geodesic dome. You knew he was home when the moog kicked in at all hours. Remarkable man.

Amazing speech…against Latour BS and the elites behind him

I understand, hehehe

this is so very cool. really interesting too.

In the end, a proposed fundamental change in society still boils down to either convincing people or coercing people; and unfortunately the world does not have the luxury of time and resources to convince all; nor should we have the lack of empathy for those suffering while society takes the scenic route to change. Theory needs to not just "speak truth to power", but also encourage coercive tools of concrete force against power; otherwise it might not be any helpul in the time we have.

Robert has done amazing work. Our generation most important artist work is saved.

As a sci go comic book kid from the 70’s it’s about time Africans Start focusing on the future. The tremendous energy of the past, good and bad can be used to build a fantastic future, but we have to create that future intentionally . Very happy😛

If you cannot imagine something, you cannot create that thing

Definitely see her live if you get the chance. It can be kind of a mind-altering experience.

Much more refined studies of planetology in actual astronomy and exoplanet research. Philosophical hot-takes are welcomed but they should be better grounded in actual planetary research, for instance the work of George Gamow who actually coined the term "comparative planetology" in 1951. No mention of this and the 70 years of astronomy that followed. But lots of Latour and Spivak.

She is the great singer ? Elena Cohen ?

Does anyone else think she’s cute? Especially with longer hair but I think she’s cute here too

This women has a mental illness. She thinks as long as she speaks quickly, you won’t realise she has nothing coherent to say.

Terrifying yet immanent. I violently disagree, on an aesthetic level, with this fetishism of petroleum polymer waste products and the entropic-Death-Drive notion of “Becoming-Plastic.” Where is Nietzsche when you need him?

The Industrial Age will be over within one to three centuries from now. One or two decades from now, the world economy will become entirely unable to grow any further, go into stagnation for a while, and then switch from the anabolic to the catabolic mode, generating wealth for a rapidly shrinking number of people while destroying everything else. Eventually, the people will rise up against capitalism as it grows weaker, but nothing will bring back a growing economy. The reason for this is the simple fact that the decoupling of economic growth from energy and resource use doesn't work, it is just a fairytale for people who think crapitalism is the best thing ever, and the capitalist industrial mode of production has exceeded and overshot the ecological limits of the biosphere and wasted enormous amounts of non-renewable energy and raw materials on pointless overproduction and overconsumption. Meanwhile, the Industrial Age has caused so much cumulative damage to the biosphere and the other planetary systems like the atmosphere (greenhouse gases are just one of our immense and monstrous problems) that we are at the beginning of the Sixth Extinction event. I don't think human extinction will happen any time soon, but I'd estimate our chances of making it through the coming 10 000 years at not much better than 50%, and that is only if the additional cumulative ecological damage in the remaining time of the dying Industrial Age is not too massive. If it keeps going the way it does now, about 50-70% of all species alive today will vanish, and humans, being highly intelligent omnivores, are quite likely to continue to live on and evolve. However, if we push it to the point where it becomes the kind of extinction event which kills 80-95% of all species, large terrestrial vertebrates just vanish, and we are large terrestrial vertebrates, unfortunately. If we were the size of a mouse, we'd still have a good chance. Dreams of spreading humanity across the Solar System in the next centuries and across the Galaxy in the next millennia will just pop like soap bubbles. I think our technological abilities as a species in terms of technolgical complexity and industrial capacity will peak within this century and then go into decline. But it will all happen rather slowly, with short and sudden catastrophes making things a lot worse every now and then, followed by periods where things improve for a while, never reaching the level before the last catastrophe again though. And just when people think everything will eventually go back to the way things were, the next catastrophe comes. Famines, pamdemics, wars, extreme weather events like droughts, floodings, heatwaves, breaks in the supply chains of all kinds of industries. The human population on this planet will shrink, life expectancy will go down, humans will adapt. And those who have never lost their old ways of living as a part of the living planet Earth will look at the stupid Whites and say, "We told you so, we have been telling you for hundreds of years." And that's OK. Civilisations come and go, and ours is getting old and sick, but it has been suffering from cancer of the economy (aka capitalism) for centuries. If we somehow manage to succeed with an eco-socialist world revolution not too far into the future and put capitalism out of its misery, we might still be able to build a new, different civilisation in the coming centuries.

I so love everything about her..

Thank you, @timothymorton !!

you look like zizek

I like the books but this speech sounds like Greta Thumberg shit.

I've never heard such much cuff in my life. Just why, no one could give a monkies. Irish DaDa hilarious. Does she ever stop talking. This is no doubt how she gets funding, anything to get her out the door.

IRA funded ?

A product by for by hand outs. Atrs grant funded bollocks

So many faces. I should coco.

Amazing presentation! If anyone would like, I have transcribed the video so feel free to reach out

24:28 bookmarking for myself

What a beautiful artwork 🌦️🫙💙

Jeff makes a strong case for Nazi punching and calling out the Christian cowardice that enables Nazis and capitalists, because those are the matched swine driving the slow apocalypse.

Is this the stupidest version of this load of bs or is there a more stupid version?

This is absolute comedy. All the characteristics she attributes to Neo-Feudalism are directly observed in authoritarian communist societies (China, Russia, NK) while almost completely absent in Capitalism. Why are people so blind nowadays...

But Communism is Feudalism of the Government… of course if there is no State, then we can talk

23:30 ish what to do

ah network science ! 12:00 ish homophily

9:07 beginning of abstract authenticity

"still in formation" was a good title for that

Very interesting stuff!

excellent
