"I am very disappointed with your show giving a platform to Nick Land, to the point of being frantic. I'm literally shaking and feel sick to my stomach"
I don't know if it was a real email or if it was written by someone at theory underground as a theory fiction.
Potentially as a self troll, attacking themselves as a delivery vehicle to critique the ridiculousness of the reality distortion of the current election cycle.
So many layers of fantastic potentiality here. Room for so many flights of thought.
I love the apocalyptic imagery evoked by the video and the whole letter.
Very resonant with the book of revelation or Ezekie, the metaphor and fantastical creatures.
I love the dialectical weaving (not necessarily in the Hegelian sense) of cycles of thesis, antithesis synthesis. (Though it would be interesting to re-examine it through Hegelian dialectics of sublation and immanent overcoming)
The emotive drive that "we have to do something" to stop the apocalypse, into sensory and choice overload provoking inactivity through learned helplessness.
Then the dialectic between both, that either action or inaction have no meaninful impact on the future unfolding itself.
It's fascinating how it weaves the dezuzian schizo type lines of flights with the dialectical narrative structure, blending and swapping between both.
This is an incredibly enlightening piece of art.
Its unclear if it is the product of a sane or insane mind. But at this point that distinction is debatable anyway.
I think everyone has to be both part sane and insane to live within the artificial intelligence that is capitalism. To either support it or try overcome it requires a dose of insanity.
Taking over or just psychosis. Well, TU just brought into the light all ideas to be seen and search out its limits. negating the negation for all things to be tested not platforming. insane as well as sane all are welcome at TU to be set free for more timenergy.
I read all this and thought - sub-par Jeff Noon, Pollen era. So, since I am unsure if this is a chapter from Nick Land's novel or a real hoax, the level of sheer boys-own mindfuck was mildly entertaining but untutored. Pseudo convoluted to confirm its unreality, no actual reading (homework) done. Most people will think too long to read, but its an insight into how dangerous too much time can be, when there is not enough time to rebuild the communist party we need - that is the kicker...
I’ve read this three times now. What I find most jarring is that it’s all “stream of consciousness” from Chad’s roommate until a sudden switch to whatever the hell part 2 is starting at “TEMPORAL ORPHAN CODEX”. I googled several parts of it but the only hit is your substack post. I’m new here so my only suspects are Land and Mikey 🤣 but I’m curious to see if they contact you again
This email belongs in the SCP vaults. Keter class cognitio hazard over here. XD
This is fantastic and fascinating.

From a rigtheous-lib-love-letter to goosebumps at the end, nice
I agree with Mikey, definitely not psychotic
First thought after reading: Kerem is trolling
