Very happy to announce THE FORGETTING OF DREAMS: SELECTED ONEIRIC RESIDUES by the brilliant Dominic Pettman.

We process our lives through riddles, mysteries, ciphers, and enigmas - but we hesitate to share these with friends and family. In times gone by, as for Freud, dreams were considered a key to cosmic secrets. Today, in all sorts of ways – both subtle and not – we are discouraged from sharing the content of our dreams, unless we happen to be indulging in that most anachronistic ritual: lying prostrate on the psychoanalyst’s couch. Anywhere else, an anecdote that begins, “Last night I dreamed . . .” is usually met with a sigh and a defensive glazing of the eyes. In our over-burdened world, any sharing of dreams is always already perceived as over-sharing. Contrary to this, Pettman argues - the more we share tales of our isolated nocturnal journeys, the better chance we have to understand the topography of our collective conundrum.

Freud’s psychoanalytic project describes people caught between two contradictory forces: the libido and a collective need for social order. Part of this harmony is embedded in the binary mutuality of men’s and women’s bodies, which remains indispensable for society to reproduce itself, even in our sexually liberated age.

Sohrab Ahmari revisits the idea of ‘genitality’ arguing that perhaps the ‘heteronormative’ orthodox Freudians were right about some things after all. How can we understand the relation between libidinal tension and homeostatic harmony, without falling into chaos or complacency?

Join Ahmari in conversation with Alfie Bown, to launch ‘Saving Genitality’, published by @everydayanalysis, which rethinks sexuality, proposing a return of the repressed: genitals.

Join me in May for a festival that mixes radical thinking with art, music and more. Speakers include,

🌓LIGHT OF THE DARK: DERRIDA, BARTHES, CELAN🌓

Jean-Michel Rabaté

Derrida’s essay “Aletheia” discusses the work of Japanese photographer Kishin Shinoyama. Reading Derrida, Rabaté investigates how, behind the classical concept of truth as a beautiful naked woman, Derrida argues that any photographic image tells the Truth, but a truth obscured as it comes to light: “nothing is more black than the visibility of light.” Staging a critical conversation with Roland Barthes’s theses in Camera Lucida and Paul Celan’s poems from Breathturn to Lightduress, Rabaté argues for a theoretical approach to truth that counters the prevailing truth-discourses of today.

CONFESSIONS OF A CLASS REDUCTIONIST by @gtaa_show 's Ben Burgis.

Link to order and attend the launch party in stories!

The neurotic's solution to the others desire takes many forms. One is the obsessive and his enjoyment in making the other wait, even for his own 💩

If you don't want to wait any longer then check out episode 4 -our penultimate episode- discussing little Hans. Link in @germaleene bio. Summary of the episode is written up on @everydayanalysis

The podcast I mention was a great episode about shit by @zizekandsoon

We had a great time at the London Radical Book Fair @bookfairldn - see you there next year!

You have 3 solutions to the crippling question: ✨What does the Other desire?✨

We all choose one: the Psychotic, Perverse, or Neurotic solution.

The pervert acts as if they know the Other’s desire, disavowing its unknowability by covering it with a veil: a fetish object or spectacle, where the Other’s desire appears knowable.
