Acid Horizon: Daily Summaries Delivered
by Acid Horizon
Emerging from affinities with post-structuralism, abolitionism, biopolitics, communism, critical metaphysics, critical mysticism, and ontological anarchy, Acid Horizon is a philosophy and theory podcast committed to thought in motion and political struggle. While these are our grounding currents, each episode opens out onto a wider constellation: ethics, politics, phenomenology, decolonial thought, queer theory, post-psychoanalysis, disability/crip theory, anarchism, Marxism, feminism, and analyses of the emergence of the new right. Comprised of a decentralized collective of friends and comrades, Acid Horizon cultivates a terrain of militant inquiry. From readings that span 20th-century French communism to new perspectives on German idealism, the collective has also undertaken forays into aesthetic experimentation, philosophical heresy, and the history of revolt. We seek the concepts and intensities that gesture toward new forms of life.

Unfolding the Deleuze Seminars: Experimental Pedagogy, Philosophy, and Politics Inside Deleuze's Classroom (with Charles J. Stivale)
What would it mean to experience philosophy not as a body of knowledge to be transmitted, but as a sensation to be felt? Craig is joined by Charles J. Stivale, author of Unfolding the Deleuze Seminars 1970-1987 and co-director of the Deleuze Seminars Archive at Purdue, and Dr. Bob Langan to reconstruct the atmosphere of Deleuze's legendary classroom: the overcrowded rooms, the student contestations, and the radical pedagogical experiment that post-68 French university life made possible. This is the closest you're going to get to sitting at Deleuze's feet on a Tuesday afternoon. Continuing discussion is available for subscribers via our Patreon account.
