Hello
I've watched a lot of your videos which I've enjoyed alot.
I have one question.
Why do some of your videos have no comments, but CZcams recommendations for further reading and explanation and is there a way to access the comment section? Thanks again for the videos.
not sure Mark would have laughed or cried about a video on his philosophy having a prelude about a micro capitalist online art market lol
Both.
And, in a real sense, neither. @@epochphilosophy
Also Seriously R.I.P Mark Fisher.
Still so heart breaking
Thanks for making another episode on Fisher and this underrated text. Also, I wanna point out: the editing / motion design in this one is fantastic.
Thanks so much!
existence in this era is just unsettling. your channel is one of the things that put me more at ease. especially the mark fisher videos, this was great
the underlying hope in something new in fishers work always gives me a warm feeling ❤
I think this is the point that often gets overlooked in Fisher's body of work!
Man the audio visual experience of this video is on another level
I’m a simple man. I see Mark Fisher content and I click.
I'm a simple man, which meant none of it made any sense to me :(
@@MrWeeRhys Read Mark Fisher first, books are so small you can read them multiple times in one week and understand :)
I am a sheep copy pasting popular comments
@GIGADEV690 oh do loads of people say what I said?
And you click. And you Click. That subtle word of psychological entrapment.
the visual styling of this video is amazing
Thank you for bringing up liminal spaces! I feel like they (and weird core) have the potential to say some pretty interesting things, but I feel like some potential is stifled when people view it as just another fad. It feels like a lot of fads are consumed rather than analyzed, and a lot of depth is lost by abandoning an idea, rather than working with it for a while. I think a lot of internet movements are flattened in that way, cause they don’t get explored further. Idk if what I’m saying actually makes any sense, but yeah 👍
Yeah, the entire design of the internet, or more rather the social media spaces humans interact on, encourages surface level participation in any of the ideas being shared. The algorithm doesn't want us to go to the library and learn in depth about something we find interesting, it wants us to keep scrolling. To find a vide to play in the background. Anyone mentioning these topics shows up in your feed regardless of whether they are knowledgeable on the topic, they can say just about anything and that thing can easily spread.
Thank you so much for introducing me to new philosopher Mark Fisher. So far it seems everything he makes is pure gold! As you describe him, Fisher looks to be very different from “normal” philosophers. More humble, down to Earth, not trying to attain some mythical objectivity. His personal experience and art references are more than enough to work wonders. Yet as his “pretentious” definition of the term ”weird” has shown us, he is still grounded in phenomenological tradition like famously obscure Heidegger. Heidegger also tried to redefine existing terms to better suit needs of Truth.
Funny thing about phenomenology is that it´s based on subjective experience. This means, we have so many phenomenologies as there are phenomenologists. So Husserl´s phenomenology is full of obsessive mathematical references, Heidegger´s is full of (kinda dodgy) etymologies of pre-Socratic Greek terms (and odd pastoral romanticism), and Sartre´s full of objectifying of other people and himself.
I studied philosophy for many years but never liked phenomenology because frankly, I didn´t like any of these guys. Fisher shows me, what marvels can be done with this old (and somewhat disgraced) phenomenological outlook on the world. It can help us to understand our own lives and give us some solace in this weird (pun intended) world.
Soon, I will have another Epoch philosophy video to listen to repeatedly!
Damn right! And maybe one for July, who knows?
This video is GOOD. You continue to make the best Fisher vids here, especially for people just wading into his work. Excellent in both production and the theory. Would love to see a masterpiece on K-Punk… Thanks for the work.
Your videos on Mark Fisher are top notch. You do justice to his work.
God, the visuals here are just phenomenal.
Great video!
The aesthetics in this video are insane. Thank you!
I feel a sense of the liminal in some of the best ASMR videos, particularly Ardra ASMR.
Beautifully made video, congrats
Great summary, but also really stunning visuals ❤
Masterworks! Capitalist Realism live and up close!
It seems you have found your "style" with this video, the visuals really aid to further explain the theory in such an enjoyable and smart way. Congratulations for such a great creation!
A wonderful vídeo! Pls take more for us, man 😅
Hands down the best channel on CZcams, anyway you can do “Scent of time” by Byung Chul Han 🙏
Thank you so much! And, you may be in luck... soon.
True detective also echoes this philosophy.
Bless for more philosophy/theory 🙏
This is so great.... thank you......❤
Truly interesting. A new view.
This is so amazing! Thank you so much for making this I’ve always loved the weird and the eerie and this ish it’s perfect l. Plus your style is unreal. What software do you use? much love
Masterworks trivializes, desacralizes, consumerizes, and so does the tube.
Thanks.
I was reading mark fisher a couple of years ago and listening to Ian Curtis. I had a vivid dream which said ‘don’t follow people down roads unless you want to share their destination.’ What can it mean?
This and CCK’s vid let’s go
Hell ya
14:31 That's my subway station.
"I'm sorry; I love you." Didn't know you were a Ric Flair fan 😎
can’t wait :-)
Oh, this will be a good one!
For some reason, this video keeps crashing. Do other people experience the same problem? I really would love to see the whole video-essay!
This is likely a YT issue! Not sure what browser or platform you are using. YT can do some weird things.
@@epochphilosophy it worked after I waited 10 minutes. Probably YT or Mozilla Firefox. Thanks, great essay.
Nice
This video feels like Antichamber
Claro que o que e novo ou novidade, não repetição, não pode se manifestar por meios estabelecidos. Mas ha de haver algum esforço em fazer uma ponte. Freud foi uma novidade mas sua linguagem recebeu o prêmio Goethe de literatura. Será Mark Fisher tão original assim que o umheimlich se torne ou se diga por palavras como liminal, Eerie, wierd etc., etc.
Queria entender um pouco o que ele pensou...
Hell yeah boys, we are not going make out of the backrooms with this one !
That's mf right!
Will this be very scary? just asking for my friend
boo
That which is, but matters not. That which should, but does nothing.
Hello 👋
9:54 we not as physically atuned with many mamnals in our 5 senses . We are limited in the physical and in our perceptions of our world.
Primeiro toque, nestes comentários, que me chega com algum sentido.
A Internet tem prodigalizado shorts da vida animal que realmente começam a ampliar-nos nossa área de percepção...
she mark on my fish til i'm her
God damn, that is beautiful. I shed a tear.
Philosophy is so masculine, angsty, and impotent. I’m here for it on the whole, but it’s also all rather silly.
Well, something new is possible, but it is almost inevitably going to be even worse. Still, I don't blame people being hopeful for a new worse thing, as it is still at least new for a short while.
Pior do ponto de vista de quem? Desde Nitzsche senão antes que as limitações humanas vem sendo derrubadas...
@@juvenalhahne7750 Nietzsche had the concept of eternal recurrence and claimed that it was better to develop as an individual to imagine being stuck in the exact unchanging bad position forever and being more than happy with it. What I am saying is that there is a Zizekian "waiting for godot" type existentialist patch, which we could say applies to the current era, where there is progress, but only where things seem to become worse all the time, and we must, you know, keep on going.
Interesting title. The voice delivery is a bit odd.
Wow love it, gives me ideas of new empty spaces, i call this NeoLiminalism, or a space that is filled not just with empty weirdness but also hints at an aesthetic of NeoFeudalism hmm lemme think, ah maybe robots standing around with trays in livery, Thanks !!! ( gonna hit the AI drawing tool after this to see if i can bring it to some visual realisation ) Oh and love the references to Lovecraft and PKD my favourite authors of the dark and surreal, really a great prompt to further thought !!!
Trumpism
Not Trump himself
But in the atmosphere and theme of 2016
There was something novel
Bainger
Housing - eerie spaces are one that are lacking it, they are supposed to be lived, they were built, decorated, supposedly warm but no living is happening there
People are on streets, under the bridges, in the woods, and there is this unhoused space
Pure capitalist eeriness
Any chance to stop with phenomenology in this century? We have people like Joscha Bach that can really put a dent in answering how conscience works. How about following that?
Acid Capitalism. Mark was ahead of his time. ✌️ r.i.p.
Pretty good video. Will watch your other stuff. But that intro add is really fucking weird for a video about Mark Fisher
Stop thinking about Capitalist Realism and get back to work!
Modernity is not over , modernity never existed, it’s a human construction, Im wary of any philosopher that commits suicide, there work is also certain leading you astray.
I wasted twenty minutes watching this. All I got out of it was the sense that this channel is a venue for videos that promote the channel on the pretext of offering something of value. The Trumpian in its active form.
when a theorist commits suicide I check off against their theory
Idea for Epoch Philosophies next video...
Louis Althusser's concept of Ideology & Ideological State Apparatuses as it relates to the multi-decade project of capturing the US Courts via dark money, think tanks, etc that have clearly imposed ideology in order to justify and reproduce itself.
There's a lot there that shows it clearly in practice between the US Chamber Of Commerce, the Federalist Society, and the wealthy plutocrats pulling the strings behind it all. Obviously, it is a pretty hot topic right now too.
Oh, I would love to do a video over Althusser. That said, PlasticPills has an insanely good video on that very topic.
@@epochphilosophy yes I know, I am a fan of his as well, and have actually just finished up reading Ideology & Ideological State Apparatuses. I recommend checking out Senator Sheldon Whitehouse's channel and watch/listen his multi-part saga on "The Scheme", as well as reading the "Powell Memo" and the ProPublica exposè on Leonard Leo.
Pretty alarming stuff, although not really surprising here in the USA lol... It holds up Althusser's work as true quite well, though!
