Worldlessness After Heidegger : Phenomenology, Psychoanalysis, Deconstruction

This collection of essays from a range of philosophers and art practitioners offers tools through which we can action change across art and philosophy, across a range of media and across the theory/practice divide. Including insights from digital apps to Indigenous ritual art and from feminist and queer art to refugee performances and talismanic magic associated with Islamic Neoplatonism, this collection will decolonise your thinking about art – subverting the traditional Western-centred art history. The first section includes theoretical essays on the concept of multiplicities, on affect and politics as well as the thought of Raymond Ruyer and Gilbert Simondon – 2 key influences on Deleuze and Guattari. The second section includes applied essays on specific art practices including the plastic arts, theatre, architecture, music and folk performances.
