About The Event
Tonight's lecture is a exploration and experiment. Queerying posits the subject – the self, the person, as unfixed, unstable, fluid, and perpetually becoming. It is a commitment to difference and diversity; complexity over simple assertions; open-endedness over prescriptive solutions; lived experience over abstractions. It is a refusal to be trapped in boxes or borders; a joyful, unruly wilfulness. Permission to be uncertain rather than expert; to embrace indeterminancy. Daemonic atavism, art, philosophy, literature all feed the queerying of chaos as ritual, practice and theory.
Patricia MacCormack is an Australian scholar who lives and works in London, England. Currently she is Professor of Continental Philosophy in English and Media at Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge. She has published extensively on philosophers including Gilles Deleuze, Felix Guattari, Maurice Blanchot, Michel Serres, Luce Irigaray, and concepts such as queer theory, teratology, body modification, posthuman theory, animal rights, horror films and antinatalism. Her most recent book is The Ahuman Manifesto: Activism for the End of the Anthropocene.
Phil Hine is a British occultist and author. He became known internationally through his written works Condensed Chaos, Prime Chaos, and The Pseudonomicon. Queerying Occultures and Acts of Magical Resistance are his most recent books.
