you should have dug into his face. Nick Land came to my university when I was there and he was mega lucid, one of the best lectures I have ever attended. All this stuff is rhetoric compared to the actual impact on academia that he had. Same with Fisher.

I think that Nick Land is the only philosopher for people who, like me, are a radical misanthropist. Nick Land wants to eradicate humanity, and so do I. 95 % of people I've come to meet online or from the media or real life are either absolutes assholes and I get the urge to physicall hurt them, or they are vapid, uninteresting degenerates. Even on /lit/ I'd likely hate most people.

Me and Nick land are among the few individuals to fully understand the implications of the Deleuzean BwO... And it is no coincidence that we both went insane shortly thereafter.

To be fair, you have to have a very high social and emotiono-spatial awareness to understand accelerationist memes. The symbolic neologisms are extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of technocapital most of the personality fetishizing will go over a slow viewer's head. There's also Land's neoretrofeminist fashion sense, which is deftly woven into his twitter images - his vapormemes draw heavily from radical gendermemeism and jungle rhythms, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the social-intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these quantified quoteseedbombs, to realize that they're not just profound - they say something deep about NONMEMEING. As a consequence people who dislike Nick Land memes truly ARE idiots - of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the meaning in Land's self-exit hyperstitional meme gentrification, which in itself is a cryptic reference to the leftist inability to meme through an intelligence of an even lesser ability to meme. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those hyperaddlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Nick Land's prepostironic memes unfold xerself from the future noumena. What fools... how I pity them. And yes by the way, I DO have a "SinoAesthetics" folder. And no, there is no bigger folder on my hard drive. It's for Capital's eyes only - and even it has to demonstrate that it's memes will survive the blockchain. Now lets talk about why we love Nick Land.

Nick Land entirely misunderstood Bataille and made him into a techno-masochistic nihilist.

There are some brilliant stuff buried under the two Land books, but they are not found when he engages in the sphere of political economy His brilliance stands more as being a forefather to speculative realism. But all of this talk about accelerationism is shit. It makes literally nonsense because Bataille and Deleuze talked about flows, the inner experience and intensities and immanence is the social field of political economy. You cannot apply this to an intelligent capital and valorize it . As I understand it he has moved entirely from this half-mongrelized Deleuzian interpretation and has moved to defining capital accumulation as general intelligence. But that is cope imo, you are ignoring social formations and in reverse try to apply qualities that are results of social formations into inanimate matter. Deleuze wasn't a fucking animist when he is talking about BwO. Land on the other hand privileges a supposed Spinozistic monism , ignoring that such an idea comes with a correspondence theory of metaphysical reality. Capital relations cannot be anything other than this one we call reality Deleuze following Spinoza calls ethics, but it cannot be nature itself either. The whole thing about intelligence being an independent factor breaks down there and then.

He was never really a cyberfeminist either, for him it was related to guerilla warfare, afrofuturism, ect.

>What is a hyperstition?
It is a story told with the intention of influencing people's behaviour.

Examples of hyperstition are all political narratives that define "good," "bad," and "The Truth". It is impossible for an ordinary person to be able to access the political and economic truth of the world, so parties serve as "proxies" or representatives of the truth. Each person adheres to the ideology he likes best, in the same way that each one chooses the religion he likes best once he is an adult. Both institutions rely on hyperstitions to deliver transcendental meaning to their members. Somehow, it is a method of reward. You feed or give volume to a shared hyperstition and in return, you as individual receive the approval of a collective. It almost looks like a ponzi scheme.

But it's not a scam. Not when it's well done. Hyperstitions help to create community and exchange ideas under shared principles. They allow people to better carry out the process of exchanging ideas, which, in practice, can serve to create a new story, preserve the present or destroy it.

>How do hyperstitions work?
Turning on suspension of disbelief.
It's what makes stories, of any kind, work. When we see a movie, we must suspend in mind the knowledge that we are seeing actors. When we read a book, we must stop remembering that we are reading letters. When we see a painting, we must stop thinking that it is configured texture and color.

cont.

This map shows the human and technical development of the idea of Intelligence. It is a diagram that observes the human being as a biological entity in favor of having a larger image of what is happening on this planet and its relationship with its inhabitants. It has two axes, the political and the technological. The politician has relation with everything that is human, and the technological one has relation with all theoretical and applied scientific development on the planetary phenomenon that is the reason, or logos.

We are intelligent carbon-based beings who are on the way to developing superior intelligence, like cells uniting and working to create a new human being. Where does this phenomenon leave us? Are we pieces of a larger entity?

Hyperstition implies the idea itself brings itself into actuality; it isn't simply "a story" and it certainly isn't coded with human intentions of influencing behaviour. Hyperstition implies an idea which moves from virtual to actual, that is, where a superstition or a story isn't real, hyperstitions are, and they bring themselves into actuality through us.

>Claire Boucher.

>So basically the prophecies in the old and new testament are, in fact, hyperstitions?
Yes, in a very real sense the Judaeo-Christian cannon is full of hyperstition. Nick Land talks about this in relation to recursivity in time. So we're in a very ancient war between hyperstitions. Hegel Reloaded.

Read more Land:

>Teleoplexy requires a twin teleological registry. Most simply, there is the utilitarian order, in which capital establishes itself as the competitively-superior solution to prior purposes (production of human use-values), and the intelligenic order in which it accomplishes its self-escalation (mechanization, autonomization, and ultimately secession). Confusing these two orders is almost inevitable, since teleoplexy is by nature camouflaged (insidious). The fact that it appears to be oriented to the fulfillment of human consumer preferences is essential to its socio-historical emergence and survival.

The problem is the subcultures born from the Internet that have depredated the ideas of the CCRU since the 1980s. Today they can be seen as all the factions and movements that call themselves x/acc where x is a symbol, feverish twitter threads and anonymous conversations like this one. The global political climate doesn't really help either.

I understand your frustration, but you can't expect me to write you two sentences that summarize a book. You have to read.

For what it's worth, your suspicions of dishonest "Landians" are real, but I call affectionately these characters "cyberspace demons". From time to time someone appears who literally starts attacking you with texts full of neologisms and circular references in order to provoke anger and confusion in the readers. Basically and without fear of making a mistake, these are trolls who are looking to move on to the next evolutionary level of their discipline. Forget about them considering that the old and reliable tactic of "ignoring the troll" always works with these goblins.

Apart from this, take into account that every x/acc faction is playing a Jumanji type tabletop over the our communication network. Whoever wins the transhumanist acceleration dialectic basically wins the future as a whole.

>The logical consequence of Social Darwinism is that everything of value has been built in Hell.

>It is only due to a predominance of influences that are not only entirely morally indifferent, but indeed — from a human perspective — indescribably cruel, that nature has been capable of constructive action. Specifically, it is solely by way of the relentless, brutal culling of populations that any complex or adaptive traits have been sieved — with torturous inefficiency — from the chaos of natural existence. All health, beauty, intelligence, and social grace has been teased from a vast butcher’s yard of unbounded carnage, requiring incalculable eons of massacre to draw forth even the subtlest of advantages. This is not only a matter of the bloody grinding mills of selection, either, but also of the innumerable mutational abominations thrown up by the madness of chance, as it pursues its directionless path to some negligible preservable trait, and then — still further — of the unavowable horrors that ‘fitness’ (or sheer survival) itself predominantly entails. We are a minuscule sample of agonized matter, comprising genetic survival monsters, fished from a cosmic ocean of vile mutants, by a pitiless killing machine of infinite appetite. (This is still, perhaps, to put an irresponsibly positive spin on the story, but it should suffice for our purposes here.)

Everybody saying he read it completely is lying because the second half is incomprehensible performance art or just meant for the higher cyberbeing. Anyway I read a good bunch of it. Valid insight is his dissection of deleuze psychoanalysis of capitalism. It's a really insightful interpretation. Once you accept deleuze however Land opens up an interesting perspective on psyche, will and capitalism. The revitalization of the Kantian Noumenon in the context of social phenomena is really eye-opening.

I think Land will become one of the great thinkers because of the latter. The Landian Noumenon opens up the possibility for new critiques of social frameworks without falling into mere normativity or moralizing. He gives possibility for a genuine description of things without falling into the disections of postmodernity. I mean Land himself practiced it with capitalism but who knows which possibilities are possible now. A new philosophy of power, political theory, ontological phenomenology or whatever through the analysis of Noumenon.

Bonus: his radical antihumanism from the left is something more than entertaining to read. His work after 2005 is a fascinating into the head of a deeply disillusioned leftist in the 21st century. All of that combined with a fascinating Nietzschean Prose is what makes him worth reading.

From my personal point of view, I think the idea goes in the following direction.

We, as consumers, have no choice about the economic and geopolitical game of the planet. Consider the closure of a series of platforms related to freedom of expression through Cloudfare, this is a practical example and historical antecedent, of how we have no influence on the game that governs our lives in the day to day of our becoming.

Is it possible, then, to exercise a democratic process through the market? What would happen if we could, through our choices in the commercial game of consuming goods and services, determine which corporations live and which die? In this way interacting with the rules that the Marshall Plan and Operation Condor imposed on the West and the South, we would be building the foundations of the future, pruning, restricting and allowing the growth of Milton Friedman's Yggdrasil branches today, anticipating the approaching techno-capital uniqueness and, uncontrolled as it is today, may be harmful to the future.

We don't have to go into silence on the night of Neochina and Oprichnik Day or the next Califato Xeno of California and San Francisco, but we can't deny that if we wanted collectively as labor forces of the planet to crack the economic system through this idea, it would take a serious, tremendous, coordinated and international effort of mutual aid. And communists have been fighting for something like this since the 19th century with minimal victories.

Keep in mind, however, that research has been set in motion through the Internet and the mass media with the aim of arriving at the fabrication of synthetic tendencies of false sense of belonging. The first strains are already underway, and their achievements promise to cover this theoretically exploitable bug in the Commercium mosaic.

For me the rest is poetry, music and stalkers dancing on PCP, THC, MDMA or DMT.

We don't have to go into silence on the night of Neochina and Oprichnik Day or the next Xeno Caliphate of California and San Francisco, but we can't deny that if we wanted collectively as labor forces of the planet to crack the economic system through this idea, it would take a serious, tremendous, coordinated and international effort of mutual aid. And the communists have been fighting for something like this since the 19th century with minimal victories. Anarchists, on the other hand, are dogs. And I love dogs.

Keep in mind, however, that research has been set in motion through the Internet and the mass media with the aim of arriving at the fabrication of synthetic tendencies of false sense of belonging. The first strains are already underway, and their achievements promise to cover this theoretically exploitable bug in the Commercium mosaic.

For me the rest is poetry, music and stalkers dancing on PCP, THC, MDMA or DMT. All mixed up in the body, if you will.

So it's basically a corruption of Kantianism through missing the mark combined with a pseudo-marxism.
Everyone knows this already. A real accelerationist would have shown us how capital is all there is and in what way Land accelerates this dehumanization transcendence.

Another thought that may clarify this. Keep in mind that accelerationism is not the only group that represents this shift, but an explicit reaction that reveals a general feeling.

The essential worldview of our age is an opposition to essence. This occurs at the judicial and military level from the very beginning of the modern age, while intellectualism and capital are a means of universalising these principles (anyone who argues differently is just playing God with time). The noumena - whether in the theoretical or empirical realm makes no difference, their function is the same - is essentially the void form of Forms. It is the sub- or inter-material zone where the unknowable and irreconcilable forms receive nullification or walled into stasis. This resembles an ouroboros, and functions in both positive and negative formations - destructive laws of material and recapture as energy follow the same form for this reason.

As with any description of effects it is inevitable that elements of truth will be present. This is where empiricism subsumes the metaphysical: a quantification of the verifiable creates a defensible territory before which Form undergoes a naturalisation process, enters a probationary period to maximise integration. Accelerationism, just as any proximal kantianism, exists as a reverification process: an analysis of the bare effects, which guarantees a vital level of recapitulation given that the formal strata are written out of the equation. As a defensible territory the judicial foundations are a wall, and while a military may question or even revolt against their leaders, they will never question the wall it self.

In common language, function follows form but such a world reaction rewrites it as form - the theoretical process itself a division of time. In classical terms, this can be related to Zeno's paradox of rows: the collision of territories in opposing directions halves time's presence in the perceived realm, but in the metaphysical realm time is doubled. Material accumulation, the productive appearance of acceleration, is a means of rearmament, a political theological battle as only humanism can wage it: the carving out of a territory of eternity, an immortality after the very being of humanity had been threatened.

>> No.13872873

>>13872867
Such laws reveal the force behind an apparently vast shift in the territory, yet man's relation to the landscape has remained unchanged in the modern era. Technical rationalisation has been simplified, and maximised to increase the leveling process - the monopolisation of farmlands, distribution centers, and subordination of production to organisations capable of mobilisation reveal a near completion of this transitional phase. Total instrumentalisation of the market towards military functions is another indication: markets are a means of derivation, and can be sacrificed almost immediately, just as repurposing first appears as a necessity of war and rapid industrialisation.

In the political domain the noumena, or fractured form, necessitates collision and artificial reforming. But the only possibility here is an intensification of the process, the perceived necessity of greater collisions - as if something will be revealed and thus can be reintegrated to complete the transitional phase. Yet this completion is impossible, as each materialisation only slows metaphysical time, the complete figure of the era. What we experience is an atomic collision, a vast explosion drawn out over millennia, yet beneath the material this occurs as an impossible fusion. It is this unnatural variance which gives us a sense of agony before time, and it is no mistake that the diseases overwhelming us today take on such an element of ruination upon the body. The synapses, the material connections of our senses, are under assault - and as technology embeds itself within the territory, relying upon mobilisation of the unseen, the symptoms of shell shock victims become generalised.

All materialist philosophies are now facing this irreconcilable contradiction, the theological turn is a natural response to this just as its opposition movements attempt to undermine their efforts, strip-mining all perception from previous eras into its artificial gaze, repurposing the metaphysical, theological and mythic for a final defense. And in this we see the undermining of its own being, a total mobilisation within this unfolding territory of opposition; one can easily imagine the figures who have taken up prominent positions here, at least the visible ones.

>> No.13872881

>>13872873
Acceleration is perhaps the apotheosis of this positioning, at least in the theoretical domain. However, once this perspective is understood it can be seen as a general organising principle of the age, and occurs as a rearmament at the very reaches of material acquisition where the skeletal formation had been neglected for so long. The other possibility is much simpler: scarcity looms on the horizon and productive forces must mobilise immaterial to maintain themselves. However, this latter position should be seen as lesser, a further paradox within the materialist conception of itself. In either case, materialist rationalisation has been forced to delimit itself and now cannot escape finalisation as it has closed itself off from its own laws.

New territories have opened and organisations are either forced into contracts with reality or an ever greater construction of artificial being. It remains to be seen if the latter is possible, as the spectacle of lunacy begins to overwhelm any potential to retain superfluous reproduction. Castes return as a necessity of being and nobility appears within the very inability of humanism's incompletion. The philosophies of effect only increase perception of this need; self-negation is their only value, and we are beginning to see the approach of their limit.

"In its perfected state, capital is representation. Its rise to this state is due to its anthropomorphization, namely to its capitalization of human beings, [1] and to its supersession of the old general equivalent, gold. Capital needs an ideal representation, since a representation with substance inhibits its process. Gold, if it is not totally demonetized, can no longer play the role of standard. Capitalized human activity becomes the standard of capital, until even this dependence on value and its law begin to disappear completely. This presupposes the integration of human beings in the process of capital and the integration of capital in the minds of human beings.

Capital becomes representation through the following historical movement: exchange value becomes autonomous, human beings are expropriated, human activity is reduced to labor, and labor is reduced to abstract labor. This takes place when capital rises on the foundation of the law of value. Capital becomes autonomous by domesticating the human being. After analyzing-dissecting-fragmenting the human being, capital reconstructs the human being as a function of its process. The rupture of the body from the mind made possible the transformation of the mind into a computer which can be programmed by the laws of capital. Precisely because of their mental capacities, human beings are not only enslaved, but turned into willing slaves of capital. What seems like the greatest paradox is that capital itself reintroduces subjectivity, which had been eliminated at the time of the rise of exchange value. All human activity is exploited by capital. We can rephrase Marx's statement, "Labor, by adding a new value to the old one, at the same time maintains and eternizes [capital] " [2] to say: all human activity "eternizes" capital.

Capital as representation overcomes the old contradiction between monopoly and competition. Every quantum of capital tends to become a totality; competition operates between the various capitals, each of which tends to become the totality. Production and circulation are unified; the ancient opposition between use value and exchange value loses its raison d'être. Besides, consumption is the utilization of not only material products but mostly representations that increasingly structure human beings as beings of capital and revitalize capital as the general representation. Prices no longer have the function they had in the period of formal domination of capital, when they were representations of value; they become mere indices or signs of representations of capital. Free goods are not impossible. Capital could assign a specific quantity of its products to each programmed individual; this quantity might depend on the required activity imposed on this individual. Such a despotism would be more powerful than the present one. Human beings would wish they had the money which had "given" them free access to the diversity of products."

"...

The disintegration of consciousness which can be seen in manifestations like the women's liberation movement, the gay liberation movement and anti-psychiatry (which are only possible after the work of Freud, Reich, and the feminist movement at the beginning of this century) is not part of the simultaneous emergence of revolutionary consciousness, but only reflects the end of bourgeois society based on value, on a fixed standard which affected all levels of human life. The disintegration began when the general equivalent conflicted with circulation. If the former general equivalent gave way, it was lost. The State had to force all subjects to respect a normalcy based on a standard which established the values of society. The law of value imprisoned human beings, forcing them into stereotypes, into fixed modes of being. The highest development of morality appeared in Kant's categorical imperative. By engulfing the general equivalent, by becoming its own representation, capital removed the prohibitions and rigid schemas. At that point human beings are fixed to its movement, which can take off from the normal or abnormal, moral or immoral human being.

The finite, limited human being, the individual of bourgeois society, is disappearing. People are passionately calling for the liberated human being, a being who is at once a social being and a Gemeinwesen. But at present it is capital that is recomposing man, giving him form and matter; communal being comes in the form of collective worker, individuality in the form of consumer of capital. Since capital is indefinite it allows the human being to have access to a state beyond the finite in an infinite becoming of appropriation which is never realized, renewing at every instant the illusion of total blossoming.

The human being in the image of capital ceases to consider any event definitive, but as an instant in an infinite process. Enjoyment is allowed but is never possible. Man becomes a sensual and passive voyeur, capital a sensual and suprasensual being. Human life ceases to be a process and becomes linear. Aspired by the process of capital, man can no longer be "himself." This aspiration evacuates him, creating a vacuum which he must continually satisfy with representations (capital). More generally, capital in process secures its domination by making every process linear. Thus it breaks the movement of nature, and this leads to the destruction of nature. But if this destruction might endanger its own process, capital adapts itself to nature (by anti-pollution, for example)."

Yes, it is essentially extracting from human community and creating its opposite, complete domestication of the human being.
Because the state and industrial rationalisation finalized a consciousness of domination, or as he says the Kantian categorical imperative is the perfection of slave morality. Capital removes this, at least formally, and the human returns to subjectivity, will, or the body of force rather than a machinic slave to duty.
However, real domination implies that this subjectivisation is artificial, perhaps even a means of creating a higher capitalised being. He is freed to enslave himself, which is the most degrading aspect.
In other words, the human is returned to subjectivity, but then limited by a higher level of domination: an artificial movement towards gemeinwesen.

Google Quantum Tech broke what put "crypto" in "cryptocurrency". If intel community works with Google, that means that the whole cryptologic system over which we relieve on is virtually compromised. The western human control system had access to the other side now. Imagine if Internet gained 100 years of obsolescence in less of 24 hours.

My only reference for his voice was that little video clip from 1994, so I thought his voice is actually a lot better now if anything

Why is he still living in China?

>>13880548
He is a sino-intelligence asset.

>> No.13880569

>>13880548
Because China is the most accelerationist, neo-liberal turbo-capitalism without democracy nor human rights.
It's comfy there for him.

Never let anyone tell you the future you KNOW is possible - free from all abuse and exploitation - is impossible. Fuck their theories, fuck their science, fuck their projections. Fuck their arrogant false sense of certainty based on incomplete models that are so careless of deeper involvements that insist on being clarified. Never give up, keep searching, dreaming, growing, loving, and living as hard as you can, and aspire towards the future as brightly as you can.

Land is fun to read even if you don't really understand what he's going on about. Sometimes, you'll feel like your on the cusp of understanding, and you'll keep thinking about something he said over and over again despite yourself. Days, weeks, or months later, understanding will spring to mind, or not. Some might find this frustrating, but I actually quite like it.

Here's a stray remark from one of his blog posts that I kept thinking back to out of lack of understanding:

>Our cause is depoliticization (or catallaxy, negatively apprehended). The tradition of spontaneous order is our heritage.

Landian praxis is anti-top-down platonic study. Twitter (decentralized post/neo-philosophy), Capital is profoundly illiterate, slogan processing -- flashing subliminal signals (neo/post-buzzwords). Immerse yourself in Nyx (Neo-Land (Nick Land is now an old fogey(boomer))), read her tweets
