The Acid Horizon crew are joined by Ray Brassier to discuss the new edition of Marcuse's 5 Lectures, out on Repeater Books as 'Psychoanalysis, Politics, and Utopia', which he wrote the introduction for. We discuss Marcuse's influence on accelerationism, his historical materialist take on Freudian psychoanalysis, and the function of repression and enjoyment in a capitalist landscape where scarcity appears increasingly artificial in light of technological and cybernetic advances in production.

This was great. Ray's point about Marcuse being the missing link between Adorno and Deleuze was very interesting. Two thinkers who are so far apart apparently. The point of departure is the centrality of class relation and its ultimate abolition, and Marcuse stands between the Adornian abolition of class and the Deleuzo-Guattarian accelerationism out of class, opression and production themselves.
