This week, the buddies step away from the CCRU (though maybe not too far) and turn their attention to a blogpost Mark Fisher wrote about Stanley Kubrick’s last film, Eyes Wide Shut. The buddies discuss the film and its representations of sex, desire, ritual, eroticism, conspiracism, and the dreary spectacle of Power. Below are linksContinue reading "Episode #4: “Have You Been Enjoying Yourself?”"

In episode 3, the Buddies dive deeper into the work of Mark Fisher with help from special guest Amy Ireland. Falling further down the CCRU K-hole, we cover the multi-layered hyperstitional piece “Who’s Pulling Your Strings?”, belief and unbelief, Monarch conspiracies, the numogram, and more. Amy Ireland is an experimental writer and theorist best knownContinue reading "Episode #3: “Who’s Pulling Your Strings?” w/ Amy Ireland"

This week, we continue our exploration of the work of Mark Fisher with an extensive interview with his friend and collaborator Robin Mackay. Last week, we dipped our collective toe into the blogosphere of the mid-2000s, discussing hyperstition, 70s pulp sci-fi and some of Fisher’s most enduring weird and eerie interests. Lurking in the backgroundContinue reading "Episode #2: The Ccru w/ Robin Mackay"

Last year, Buddies Without Organs explored the works of Gilles Deleuze. Now, in association with Zer0 Books, we are turning towards the lesser-known works of Mark Fisher.

Hello Buddies! It has been a while… Sorry about that. We were well and truly defeated by The Fold. But rather than abandon our reading completely, we decided to branch out and try and make sense of one concept at the heart of the book. Lucky for us, it is a concept that remains atContinue reading "Episode #09: The Event"

This week we are joined by a very special guest, Lucy from the Wyrd Signal podcast. Together, we read the nomadology chapter on Deleuze and Guattari’s A Thousand Plateaus. We spoke about the form and content of State apparatuses, war machines, nomads, blobs, and how this all relates to conflicts in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Israel-PalestineContinue reading "Episode #08: The War Machine"

It has been a long time coming… I don’t think we fully appreciated what we getting ourselves into here. Unfolding, with intervals, over the coming months, the buddies begin their three-part reading of Gilles Deleuze’s 1988 book The Fold. Beginning with a quick look at the life and times of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, each ofContinue reading "Episode #07: The Fold (Part 1)"

The buddies are doing something a little different this episode. Having previously announced a three-episode deep-dive in Deleuze’s The Fold, they all had pretty rotten Aprils. Corey suggested we cover something a bit lighter in the meantime… Instead we read Chronosis. Written by Reza Negarestani and Robin Mackay, with astounding artwork by Keith Tilford, ChronosisContinue reading "Episode #06: Chronosis and the Three Buddy Problem"

It is possible that writing has an intrinsic relationship with lines of flight. To write is to trace lines of flight which are not imaginary, and which one is indeed forced to follow, because in reality writing involves us there, draws us in there. To write is to become, but has nothing to do withContinue reading "Episode #05: On the Superiority of Anglo-American Literature"
