Particular forms of art are attempts to resolve the dead lock inscribed into their very notion. And there's shout out to to art here, from gija, who ho doesn't tend to talk about art very much. He says that the same goes for art. Because art is like, kind of discontinuous with reality as such.

This week the fellas talk Žižek's use of the Möbius strip.

While working through the concept, &SoOn talks art, Top Gun, and Midnight In Paris.
