Step through the oddly placed door and enter the world of the weird and the eerie. In this episode, we dive into Mark Fisher’s The Weird and the Eerie with author and photographer Matt Colquhoun (xenogothic.com). Matt is the Author of Egress: On Mourning, Melancholy and Mark Fisher. He has also edited the compilation final lecture series entitled Postcapitalist Desire.

The book haunts.
This is the last Fisher book I haven’t read. I’m really looking forward to it.
already liked it before even pressing play lmao
Fantastic podcast, learned a lot. And a big thank you to your guest who brought both wisdom and emotion to the table.
this is my favorite kind of subject matter to have interrupted by advertisements

You can buy your way out of that burden as well. Capitalism and consumerism really can solve all our problems! 😮
Thank you for these videos. I absolutely love Mark Fisher's work and these interviews are incredibly insightful.
amazing, i was literally thinking about how i need to get around to reading this book and saw this as first thing on my recommendations
THE MAN THE MYTH THE LEGEND
Great podcast. A lot of fun to listen to
Great convo and l o v e the sounds : )
Thank you!!
Hearing Matt talk about this remix of Belly of the Beast using self-checkout sounds is really fascinating - what's the name of Fisher's mix of Belly of the Beast? Searching him and K-Punk with BotB only brings up - understandably - Fisher's writing in relation to the original.
you mentioned how deleuze talks about representations- where could i read more on that?
Great question. When I first came to Deleuze's work years ago, it was something that initially eluded me as being of primary importance. It's basically EVERYWHERE in his writing, even if it anti-representationalism is functioning in the background. The essay to start you out might be 'Plato and the Simulacrum' (It is available online and it is also found in the appendix of The Logic of Sense). D&G's book on Kafka is an important note in their anti-representationalism. ('Justice is desire and desire alone [not just propositions about justice, etc.]). The recent episode on the image of thought we did brushes up against Deleuze's anti-representationalism as well.
@@AcidHorizon can I just add: his essay "How do we recognize structuralism" also thinks about representation through this relation between genesis and structure in structuralism->post-structuralism. gets into his stuff about calculus in D+R
I recommend the Conclusion of Difference & Repetition. It’s a fantastic distillation of lots of the ideas throughout the book
It's reasonable to say a universal symbolic language exists and psychoanalysis, philosophy, poetry have cast thousands of molds of symbolic meaning . We lack objective coherence so we never understand each other or ourselves, we are the other and the other is us. Perfect communication meaning error free understanding which poets would say is love.
I am subscribing for the name alone. Thanks algo.

It sounds like you are saying “Marx” instead of “Mark” a lot of the time!
