  • If you've been on that Plasticpills content, you know I've been pushing for new forms of practice, so here we're attempting some unprecedented, collaborative work. We discuss the intentions behind the project here: • Eyes & Ears w/ @ArtinS...
    I don't have the skillset for lyrical theory, so I got at someone who does. Artin Salimi is the most innovative and underappreciated theorytube creator I know of (if you're unconvinced, here's his take on Deleuze's Difference & Repetition: • Gilles Deleuze (pt.2) ... ). I did my best to keep up for the sake of the video, but he's on another level. Hit up his channel for continental and Islamic philosophy mediated by stop motion and hip-hop beats.
    We're looking at the sonic as an 'informalized' philosophy, and there's a stack of references packed throughout, including Plato, Mulla Nasruddin, Nietzsche, Heidegger, Derrida, Virilio and Baudrillard, so happy hunting!
    There's always more exclusive content from me for channel members and patrons / plasticpills . Thanks so much to everyone already making it happen--a better contentverse is possible!

    I’m fascinated by your channel. I’m not sure if I understand everything, but I understand a LOT more from 20th Century continental philosophy, which I regarded to be complete gibberish for far too long. You have an excellent gift when it comes to giving examples and using creative autoirony to convey a point. I’m also very glad that you introduced me to Deleuze, whose work is an uplifting and inspiring, yet intelligent message, which I needed desperatly in this bleak stream of hiperreality, which the internet has become.

    Awesome work!
    The visuals are amazing, the lyrics are deep and meaningful, and while your voice could use a little more character and rhythm, it's still good IMHO.
    I'm sure that will improve with time, and I would definitely keep working this stuff, as it's really cool to watch.
    The lyrics being visualized is super helpful too!
    I love your little manipulations to the visuals that fit the audio effects. Top notch!
    I make a bunch of kaleidoscopic visuals myself, and the only thing I might add about those is that I much prefer 6 or 7 pointed stars than the typical 4 or 8....
    Still there's not much to complain about in this wonderful new piece of art, and I only hope the criticism can add to the quality that much more next time around!
    I can't wait for more! 👏👏👏

    People with a lot in common can have violently different Music taste. Personally I really really like the instrumental track here. The rapping is good, but when a big name gets dropped it sounds kind of goofy (maybe some academic baggage there). Plus Plastic Pill's voice could do with a bit more anger, but otherwise works pretty well. Awesome content and production. I'll be checking out Artin Salimi and listening to this one again for sure

      Nothing is also something. The empty space in between notes is what makes a melody. Modern man is trying to eliminate the empty space, the nothing, death, to become immortal. But in doing so you just create a drone, no contrast, no Yin, like a heart monitor flatlining.

    There is an egregore, a heccaity, working through parts of humanity right now that's driving us towards "enlightenment". The connectivity of the internet and amazing artists like you and Artin boost the signal. The immanent thought-form beast that is created by us and creates us in each moment through oscillating feedback, is growing stronger.
