Race as Phenomena
Lights! Race! Gender! Adrian Piper and the Pseudorationality of Data
This article engages with the work of Adrian Piper in order to explore relationships among visuality, data, race, and gender. It specifically pairs Piper's multimedia installation Cornered (1988) with her conception of pseudorationality, which she develops in her philosophical work on Immanuel Kant, and brings this pairing to bear on current discussions in software and critical algorithm studies. Cornered's exposure of the pseudorationality of ra…

Any successful theory of music is at the same time a theoretical failure – this is the primary contention of Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe’s 1979 essay ‘The Echo of the Subject’, which explores the conn
Deterritorialising Transversality
Felix Guattari opens his 1964 essay ‘Transversality’ by declaring that ‘institutional therapeutics has got an object’ and that this object is ‘the reality of the social problematic’.1 In the remain

This chapter argues that the imaginary of the Chinese male body in Hong Kong kung fu cinema functions both as a site through which vengeance is sought against the Chinese experience of modernity as well as a figure of racial melancholia that expresses the failure to achieve such vengeance.

Institutional Schizophasia and the Possibility of the Humanities' ‘Other Scene’
Transversality occupies a central place in Guattari's thought, appearing in his early writings on institutional analysis and on through to his final work, Chaosmosis. Transversality is thus particularly pertinent to understanding Guattari's critique of semiocapitalism and his goal of re-imagining forms of institutional subjectivisation as a way to free the unconscious from structures of lack and the desire for punishment, the very structures upon…
