In total darkeness, is poetry still there? Talk with Jason Bahbak Mohaghegh.

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 01:52:32

Iranian-American philosopher Jason Bahbak Mohaghegh joins me for a garden walk - through evil and madness, secrets, games.

Poetry that sits at the start of every civilization, rave cultures in active war zones, programmers who can dance, horror films as the real history of reality, mysticism as transaction, and the praying mantis.

Jason Bahbak Mohaghegh, Ph.D. in Comparative Literature and Middle Eastern Studies and now Professor of Comparative Literature at Babson College, is the author of nine books spanning philosophy, literature, psychoanalysis, and cultural studies, including Omnicide: Mania, Fatality, and the Future-In-Delirium, Night: A Philosophy of the After-Dark, and Evil: A Study of Lost Techniques

Accelerating Potlatch. Talk with with John Cussans .

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 01:39:31

A free-flowing talk with artist, writer, and arts educator John Cussans about potlatch, the Bataillean concept of excessive, communal expenditure, and whether figures like Trump represent a perverse modern version of it.

A note on how John stopped consuming news entirely, the lost promise of the 1990s anarchist internet , the political polarization narrative, and the toll lacanian marxism takes on mental health.

John Cussans is an artist, writer, and arts educator working across contemporary art, cultural history, and critical art theory. Among other things, he is the author of Undead Uprising: Haiti, Horror and the Zombie Complex , which traces the zombie figure from Hollywood back to its roots in Haitian Vodou and colonial history.

Flying vegetables of the Apocalypse. In memoriam of Guy Klucevsek.

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 14:47

A special episode in memory of Guy Klucevsek. Sort of degerate radioplay in the spirit of Patrik Ouředník.

No music here, just news and fake news of funerals and beheadings, Marlon Brando, degenerative art, mushroom poisoning, trump fragrances, Darwin's relations to bees, high IQ religion, Nick Land, Baudrillard, Collins and Crickillon and Avicenna.

To listen with the music:

Guy Klucevsek (1947–2025) was an American accordionist and composer who fused polka, minimalism and experimental music. A central figure in Downtown New York's experimental scene, he drew on his Slovenian-American heritage to push the accordion beyond its beer-hall associations. He composed over 100 works, released more than 20 albums, and collaborated with John Zorn, Tom Waits, Laurie Anderson and Bill Frisell, and co-founded the group Accordion Tribe in 1996.

The saints knew it all along. Talk with Michael Levin.

Tuesday, June 2, 2026 • Duration 59:55

The episode about how mind and intelligence are fundamental and widespread (even if it doesn't seem like they are when you listen to the news). The discussion moves from regenerative medicine and aging to the deeper questions of how we recognize and ethically engage with unfamiliar minds, where ancient spiritual intuitions meet modern science, and what place hold in a world filling with hybrid and engineered beings.

In a joke retold by Dr. Levin in another video: two mind neurons are talking—one is a mystic, the other a materialist.

The mystic neuron says, "I believe in a higher something. I almost feel like there's an ultimate goal to what we do." The materialist scoffs and replies, "Nonsense! There's nothing out there and beyond us!"

Dr. Michael Levin is the Vannevar Bush Distinguished Professor of Biology at Tufts University and director of the Allen Discovery Center. His lab studies bioelectricity, the electrical signaling cells use to know what to build, and has used it to regrow organs, repair birth defects, suppress cancer, and create novel organisms like Xenobots and Anthrobots.
