Machinic Unconscious Happy Hour

Jack Collis (@technoecologic), friend of the podcast currently working on a 12-episode first season of a YouTube series on philosophy, politics, and economics (utopiaTV), joined me for an anti-work focused episode. We looked at 4 pieces: Armed Joy by Alfredo Bonanno https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/alfredo-m-bonanno-armed-joy On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs: A Work Rant by David Graeber https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/david-graeber-on-the-phenomenon-of-bullshit-jobs-a-work-rant The Abolition of Work by Bob Black https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/bob-black-the-abolition-of-work?fbclid=IwAR2Wcv9cx7A8WTGYMLqFx0xDWE7whTYZyypFNU3z-jvehy-jmTMI8NC7s1w Getting Rid of Work by Gilles Dauve https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/gilles-dauve-getting-rid-of-work?fbclid=IwAR2u-5T3u1L7zmR7xNXM_JtZENuCE8feuFiFpRehWkAOSF31u3GrAHrdTlo Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/muhh Twitter: @unconscioushh Instagram: @unconscioushh

This week Dr. Saul Newman joined me to discuss Max Stirner, Lacan, and Post Anarchism. His work is in the area of continental political theory as applied to a study of contemporary forms of radical politics and autonomous social movements. He coined the term ‘postanarchism’ to describe new post-statist forms of political activism. His research has also led him to an exploration of sovereignty and legal theory, violence and securitization, political theology, autonomy and freedom, human rights and statelessness. He has also written widely on the nineteenth century German thinker Max Stirner, and he published the first ever edited collection on Stirner’s thought in the English language. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saul_Newman Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/muhh Twitter: @unconscioushh Instagram: @unconscioushh

This will be part 3 in a series of discussions on Felix Guattari's work. Taylor Adkins & DC (@4Q248) both return to discuss chapter 5 of Felix Guattari's The Machinic Unconscious: Essays in Schizoanalysis. Taylor actually translated this edition, so we are very lucky to have him share his insights. The discussion has a great dynamic, with DC on his way to becoming a psychoanalyst.
