well, combining continental theory with how blockchain/AI et al works would be interesting to me at least (although you would have to dumb it way the fuck down so that math smoothbrains like myself could understand it). i cannot into Badiou's math or much else. Yuk Hui has the programming chops and the continental background to write interesting things, i always sleep well after shilling him. he also thinks Land is wasting his talents and prefers to take his cues from Heidegger, Simondon and Stiegler rather than Deleuze.

besides pic rel, this is now...oh snap, available. hm.

have you read Negarestani? Intelligence and Spirit? might be up your alley also. and Justin Murphy wants to launch something called A Really Bad Graduate School, maybe you could write to him, i don't know. he's got an interesting blog at least, documenting his own It's Complicated status with academia.

>I also dropped Land a line at one point but not much came from that.
god if i had the Fuck You money i would so love to fund the Department of Speculative Economics as an online course in Land, NRx, all of the rest of it. would be online, i think, and we would scale down the lying on the floor and croaking while Orphan Drift or whatever plays in the background. something much more sober that would not horrify the Scottish Enlightenment. but, you know, with just enough Outside to keep things interesting. and in which i would be able to maintain my own tiny little Curio Shoppe under a bridge and ramble in increasingly arcane and bizarre ways.

'tis a very interesting world we live in. just too many interesting things happening in it. too much for one mind. a studio system independently funded and not depending on Virtue Bucks would be preferable. just too many interesting things to talk about in this poor old battered world of ours.
