Open Geesten #24 - Daan F Oostveen over cultuurstrijd en ironische distantie
In deze video proberen Daan F. Oostveen en ik enkele inzichten met betrekking tot de culture wars schoon te praten. We gaan in op de paradoxen mbt representatie in kunst en cultuur. We proberen de filosofische lijnen te schetsen waaruit de zoektocht naar sociale rechtvaardigheid ontsproten is en proberen daarin verschillende denkwegen te onderscheiden. We verkennen hoe de 'dark web intellectuals' zich hiertoe verhouden en proberen enkele misvattingen met betrekking tot het postmodernisme schoon te praten. We krijgen ruzie over de kwestie Jordan B. Peterson en Lindsay Shepherd en komen er niet meer uit. We hervinden onze harmonie in een gezamenlijke afkeer voor de atypische kruistocht van Laurens Buijs...

Houellebecq vs Kirac VIII - The Podcaster - Michiel Lieuwma
Guest: Michiel Lieuwma
Last week, the judge finally issued a ruling on the matter of Houellebecq versus Kirac (Keeping It Real Art Critics). This verdict was completely unexpected to me. I was overwhelmed by a vague sense of doom all afternoon. Perhaps I was too involved with the case after speaking with all sorts of people involved. But maybe something else is going on. I decided to drive to the studio of Jasper Djosa Cremers. He always edits my audio, and with him, I regularly have lengthy discussions about the episodes of the show. He might be the right person with whom I can explore these dark feelings.
About the series Houellebecq vs Kirac:
In this special series I want to report on the lawsuit between Michel Houellebecq on one side and KIRAC, or Keeping It Real Art Critics, on the other side. Leading up to the judge's verdict in about four weeks, I want to talk to various directly involved parties, in the lawsuit and in the making process of Kirac's film, the film about Houellebecq, the film that Houellebecq wants to ban.

Houellebecq vs Kirac VII The Art Collective - Stefan Ruitenbeek & Kate Sinha
Guest: Stefan Ruitenbeek & Kate Sinha
Once again, Stefan Ruitenbeek and Kate Sinha, the driving force behind Kirac (Keeping It Real Art Critics), find themselves in a maze of controversies, intrigues, mud-slinging, and lawsuits. How do they keep a cool head, as a young family and up-and-coming filmmakers? How do they view the lawsuit themselves? How do they explain the bombast and floundering of star author Michel Houellebecq and his wife Lysis? And how do they intend to make a film out of all this material?

Houellebecq vs Kirac VI The Mecenas - Philip van den Hurk (ENG subs)
Guest: Philip van den Hurk
For several years, Philip van den Hurk has been a consistent patron of Kirac. Since then, he has also been frequently featured in KIRAC films. This relationship does not proceed without conflict. For instance, Stefan punched him on Lesbos after he reportedly misbehaved. Despite this, Philip remains fascinated, and notices that he keeps returning and adjusting to his role as the one who has to pull out his wallet.
How does he view this atypical relationship he has built with Stefan? What does he get out of it for himself? And what can he say about this dynamic so we can look at what's unfolding between Kirac and Houellebecq in a fresh new way?

Houellebecq vs Kirac V The New York Art Critic - Forrest Muelrath
Guest: Forrest Muelrath
Art should disrupt the symbolic order. That's why this case is so interesting, according to Forrest Muelrath, a New York art critic and writer. Both Michel Houellebecq in his novels and KIRAC in their films are, in their own ways, engaged in this disruption of order. This disruption in itself serves a higher purpose, as all great art does - or should do. Therefore, it is relevant to look at this Mexican standoff between these two manipulative forces in terms of storytelling and how they both try to bend the narrative to their advantage.

Houellebecq vs Kirac IV The Muse - Jini Jane (ENG subs)
Guest: Jini Jane
Two years ago, Jini Jane made a call on the website GeenStijl. To bridge the gap, she wanted to have sex with right-wing men as a left-wing philosophy student at the University of Amsterdam (UvA). FvD philosopher Sid Lukkassen responded, resulting in the controversial film 'Honeypot'.
Two years later, Stefan Ruitenbeek follows her OnlyFans adventures in the suburbs of Paris when their path crosses with Michel Houellebecq. His wife Lysis indicates that the French star author is interested in a honeypot-like adventure. In this episode, we delve deeper into what has happened in Paris since then and how Jini Jane herself views the agreements made about the creation of the juicy film footage.

Houellebecq vs Kirac III The Girl - Isa Moleman (ENG subs)
Guest: Isa Moleman
Isa Moleman responded to a call from KIRAC (Keeping It Real Art Critics) to share a hotel room bed in Amsterdam with French star author Michel Houellebecq. She agreed under the specific conditions that this was a film project by KIRAC. During the filming day, she withdrew and indicated that she did not want to continue the intimate scenes.
In this episode, we will delve deeper into this specific case: what initially prompted Isa to say yes to this specific plan? What made her hesitate and withdraw at the exact moment? How does she view the lawsuit now that Houellebecq's lawyer demands that the film footage may not be used? And doesn't such a ban contradict her initial commitment to intimacy with the writer?

Houellebecq vs Kirac II The Orphan - Levina van Winden (ENG subs)
Guest: Levina van Winden
Levina van Winden is one of the people who has worked extensively with Kirac in recent times. Over a period of years, she was followed with cameras in her daily life and various situations, such as a Christmas dinner or intimate scenes with her ex-husband. Several people from her personal life strongly advised her against this collaboration. Her ex-lover even dared to claim that their life would be over as soon as the film - which has not yet been released - would see the light of day. However, she thinks differently about it. In this second episode, we reconstruct this atypical way of filmmaking and what it does to the people who participate in it. This may perhaps shed new light on the lawsuit and the way in which the literary superstar Michel Houellebecq also deals with this situation.

Open Geesten #15 - Timon Dias over klimaat en gender
Voor de derde keer schuift Timon Dias aan. Hij stelt voor om het ditmaal te hebben over wat in zijn ogen de twee heetste hangijzers zijn van deze tijd: klimaat en gender. Waarom wordt juist om deze kwesties om het hardst gestreden? In welke mate zijn de voorvechters ervan ideologisch gemotiveerd? Hoe moet je je daartoe verhouden? En wat hebben deze twee onderwerpen uiteindelijk met elkaar te maken? In deze aflevering doen we een dappere poging om twee ogenschijnlijk onbespreekbare onderwerpen met de grootst mogelijke voorzichtigheid te verkennen...
