Non-standard anti-capitalist philosophy publication based on the principles of epistemological communization and radical immanence.
Aesthetically, we draw inspiration from the speculative realism blogosphere of the late 2000s and early 2010s (for a brief guide to the first generation of those blogs, see our post on Instagram). As recounted in the speculative reader par excellence:
Along with Collapse, another non-institutional forum for conceptual production has been the online community. Initially operating in the 1990s through email listserves, online discussion has shifted to the blogosphere as this medium emerged in the opening decade of the century. […] The less formal nature of the medium facilitates immediate reactions to research, with authors presenting ideas in their initial stages of development, ideally providing a demystifying sort of transparency. The markedly egalitarian nature of blogs (open to non-Ph.Ds in a way that faculty positions are not) opens a space for collaboration amongst a diverse group of readers, helping to shape ideas along unforeseen paths. The rapid rhythm of online existence also makes a stark contrast with the long waiting periods typical of refereed journals and mainstream publishers. (The Speculative Turn, 6-7)
