On this episode of Acid Horizon we’re joined by educator and public philosopher Dr Gregory B. Sadler to discuss Nick Land’s Fanged Noumena. We talk about the historical trajectory of Land’s work, his critiques of Kant and redeployments of Deleuze and Guattari, and the ways in which Land problematizes the relationship between capitalism, desire, cybernetics, and the future of the human in a landscape of accelerating and creatively dissolving forms of artificial intelligence in the information age. Other figures mentioned include Hegel, Schelling, Fichte, and Schopenhauer.

“…think of nick as the enemy.” Well said, Will.

Echoes from Elsewhere

When you were talking about what is preventing the singularity and all that Land saw as what should have, in a way, already happened, (can't remember who) but someone said, "There are all of these systems that are completely inept (right?) in the face of the deterritorializing power of capital but also actively standing in way" (~48:00). And i was struck by a point Umberto Eco made in his essay, Ur-Fascism about how fascists are condemned to lose wars because they cannot accurate judge the strength of their enemy, "by a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak. Fascist governments are condemned to lose wars because they are constitutionally incapable of objectively evaluating the force of the enemy." This is the 8th ur-fascist feature. And it seems to be a weakness, constitutionally perhaps, in Land too.
