Archive Fire: on clear and present morality
http://www.archivefire.net/2015/05/on-clear-and-present-morality.html
On clear and present morality. In “ Their Morals and Ours. 8221;, Leon Trotsky laid out some sobering reflections on justification and sentiment:. A means can be justified only by its end. But the end in its turn needs to be justified. From the Marxist point of view, which expresses the historical interests of the proletariat, the end is justified if it leads to increasing the power of man [sic] over nature and to the abolition of the power of man [sic] over man [sic]….

Archive Fire: Relative Universalism?
http://www.archivefire.net/2015/02/relative-universalism.html
International policies for the protection of the Environment rest on a very specific conception of nature, which appeared in Europe during the Enlightenment. This conception is far from being shared by all the peoples of the earth, who value different cosmological principles. According to Philippe Descola, the preservation of biodiversity can only become fully effective if it takes into account this plurality in the understanding of nature.

Organic Intellectualism among the Working Class? McKenzie Wark on salvage philosophy. From his newly published. The Philosophy of Living Experience. To write and speak and work for those that might ignite their own passions towards revolutions in lifestyle and polity? What a fantastic idea. But are there those willing to read, hear and work with us among the precariat. Classes and marginal peoples?

Archive Fire: June 2013
http://www.archivefire.net/2013_06_01_archive.html
Any change in determining conditions is never a complete re-coordination of components, but rather a complex adjusting of variable elements according to intrinsic properties and extrinsic force. So it is with base materiality and so it is with any of our scaffolded sapient worldviews. I am no longer driven to pursue individualized intellectual processing. On my own I am a mere glitch. Nothing but a momentary capture of language and associations. But. Others I become more:. Involving Arran (from Attempts ...

The ecological a priori? Adam Robbert bringing the Foucault and Deleuze eco-style:. What I like about Adam's framing of F and D here is his seemless demonstration of how each of these Frenchies are already. Thinking ecologically in their appeals to structure and materiality, without having explicitly stated as such. Reading Adam's post ( here. Reminds me exactly why the work of these two gents is so near and dear to me: each attempts to think about the structural dynamics. NIKOLAS KOMPRIDIS Nikolas Kompr...

Archive Fire: The Anthropocentrist Loop?
http://www.archivefire.net/2015/02/the-anthrocentrist-loop.html
More significantly, anthropocentrism narrows the associative cognitive-neuronal tunnel within which we can evaluate the overall necessity, function and agency of otters, orchids, or even carbon-dioxide molecules. This makes for bad ontography and therefore even worse social design. Thus deflating the aspirations of folk transcendentalisms. Http:/ hontor.deviantart.com/art/Anthropocentrism-136154462.
