King Ketamine: https://www.parapraxismagazine.com/articles/king-ketamine
Acid Horizon welcomes back Taija Mars McDougall to discuss her latest essay “King Ketamine,” published in Parapraxis Magazine. Together, we examine how ketamine—favored by Silicon Valley elites like Elon Musk—has become the drug of the techno-fascist sacrament, fueling disassociation and delusions of divine-like Promethean capitalism. Drawing on personal encounters and haunting hallucinations, Taija explores how the drug mirrors and intensifies a chimerical ruling-class subjectivity in which power is sanctified through suffering and algorithmic detachment. The conversation charts a chilling terrain: from the political theology of tech billionaires and the racial substrate of “techno-optimism” to the convergence of AI, surveillance, and “libertarian” psychoanalysis.Support the show

The Ordeal: https://splitinfinities.substack.com/p/crossing-the-line-the-repeater-booksPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/acidhorizonpodcast
We are joined by philosopher Nicolas de Warren to explore his concept of the anarchist imaginary, drawn from his essay "Anarchism, the Shock from Elsewhere: Glissant and Levinas". Together, we unpack how anarchism operates not merely as a political program, but as an ethical and temporal force—a heterotopia that resists monolingualism, sovereign authority, and the foreclosure of otherness. Nicholas discusses the right to opacity, indirect reciprocity, and an anarchist ethics of reading that dismantles institutional power while cultivating new forms of literacy and solidarity. Drawing on the work of Glissant, Levinas, Derrida, and others, this conversation maps a terrain where impossibility becomes the site of political and philosophical renewal. We also reflect on the prospects for anarchist institutions, public pedagogy, and the future of thought in an age of digital unthinking.

CW: explicit mentions of pornography and revenge porn
Is AI a cruelty machine? In what ways do the aesthetics of fascism intersect with techno-futurism and reactionary fantasies—and how should we respond? Acid Horizon welcomes Gareth Watkins (Death Sentence Podcast, New Socialist) to discuss his article on how the far-right embraces AI—not for innovation, but for domination, aesthetics, and control. From Tommy Robinson’s fake D-Day fantasy to deepfake misogyny and the mutual aid ecosystem of right-wing tech barons, we explore how artificial intelligence has become the dark mirror of their political libidinal economy.Article: https://newsocialist.org.uk/transmissions/ai-the-new-aesthetics-of-fascism/

Peter Thiel began his career as a libertarian idealist, championing free markets and techno-utopian escape from politics, but his trajectory has led him into the heart of reactionary power. From PayPal to Palantir, his vision has shifted from decentralization to a fusion of state and corporate control, aligning himself with the rising forces of the new right. In this episode, we examine his 2009 essay The Education of a Libertarian, tracing the contradictions in his ideology and the deeper implications of his political influence today. Joined by Dr. Gregory Sadler, we explore Thiel’s evolution, his role in shaping contemporary conservatism, and what his vision means for the future of democracy and governance.Support the show

CW: explicit discussions of sex and pornography
In this episode, we explore the intersections of eroticism, pornography, and theory with special guest Vex Ashley of Four Chambers. We discuss the influence of Georges Bataille on erotic art, the political stakes of sex work in an increasingly censorious cultural climate, and the boundaries between pornography and artistic expression. Vex shares insights into her creative process, the resurgence of the "mommy" archetype, and how erotic filmmaking can challenge dominant narratives about sex and power. We also examine the impact of digital platforms on intimacy, censorship, and the shifting landscape of desire.

https://www.roberthlangan.com/
In this session of the Anti-Oedipus Files, Dr. Bob Langan joins the reading group to explore Carl Jung’s theory of libido, particularly as it appears in Symbols of Transformation, where Jung challenges Freud’s strictly sexual definition of libido. The conversation examines how Jung’s model of psychic energy may have influenced Deleuze and Guattari’s reconceptualization of desire in Anti-Oedipus, particularly in the shift from a repressed, Oedipal unconscious to a dynamic model of desiring-production. Jung’s tensions with Freud, his engagement with myth, and the role of archetypes as energetic processes rather than static typologies are central to the discussion, as is the way his work has been co-opted and misrepresented by figures like Jordan Peterson. The group also unpacks Jung’s connections to Spinoza, his late-career interest in synchronicity, and how his Red Book offers a more radical and experiential engagement with the unconscious than his later, more systematized theories suggest.

Buy Hexen 2.0 Tarot and the forthcoming Hexen 5.0 Tarot: https://cosmogenesis.world
Preview Hexen 5.0's: new images: https://www.suzannetreister.net/HEXEN_5/HEXEN5.html
Lars Bang Larson's Essay: https://www.suzannetreister.net/HEXEN2/HEXEN_2_LBLessay.html
Note: if you were watching the tarot deck flip through on YouTube, you are seeing the Hexen 2.0 deck.
About the new deck:HEXEN 5.0, an update of HEXEN 2.0 (2011), presents a critical, historical and mystical exploration of new global developments in terrestrial and interplanetary technologies, science and communications, corporate and governmental forces, the ecosystem and climate crisis, recent and traditional fields of knowledge and spirituality, new branches of bio/socio/political theory, contemporary countercultural and futuristic movements, new directions in science-fiction, and proposed possible solutions for an ethical survival of the human race.
The visual structure of the works is largely based on alchemical drawings of the 13th - 18th centuries, entwining these subjects into a holistic mystical space where they become differently animated and resonant. In alchemical drawings, science, art and religion/spirituality co-exist, echoing the recently converging fields illuminated in some of the cards, such as Spiritual Ecology, Nexus thinking and Earth System Science, fields which may lead to better solutions for the climate crisis and to returning the planet towards a self-regulating system.
Where HEXEN 2.0 analysed the legacy of cybernetics as embodied in Web 2.0 and systems of control, showing how Web 2.0 works as a societal controlling system, HEXEN 5.0 traces cybernetics' relevance to whole earth systems and how the cybernetic self-regulating feedback loops of the planetary ecosystem, which we have sent out of whack, need to be addressed through an understanding of the workings of the total global ecosystem. This is embodied in the aims of Earth System Science and potentially in an even more holistic system incorporating traditional knowledges and spirituality.The published deck of tarot cards is intended to be used as a tool for groups to discuss and envision positive alternative futures and may be used in conjunction with HEXEN 2.0 Tarot deck.

In this episode of Acid Horizon, Chuck LeBlanc, therapist and host of Couch to Couch, joins us to explore masculinity, loneliness, and mental health in an era of social alienation. We discuss the male loneliness epidemic, stoic ideals, and the harmful influence of figures like Andrew Tate and Jordan Peterson. Chuck shares insights from his therapeutic work, integrating Deleuze and Guattari, Hillman, and Gendlin. We examine the historical provider archetype, the performativity of male friendships, and social media’s role in fostering disconnectedness. Chuck also introduces an active imagination exercise to help clients connect with their emotions. This episode highlights the importance of vulnerability, connection, and rethinking masculinity in contemporary society.

The rise of the new far right has left the world grappling with a profound misunderstanding. While the spotlight often shines on the actions of charismatic leaders such as Donald Trump and Jair Bolsonaro, the true peril lies elsewhere. Defeating these people will not stem the tide driving them forward. They are merely the embodiment of profound forces that are rarely understood. Propelled through the vast networks of social media and fueled by far-right influencers, enthralled by images of disaster and fantasies of doom, they have emerged from a reservoir of societal despair, fear, and isolation. Within this seething cauldron, we witness not only the surge of far-right political movements but also the sparks of individual and collective violence against perceived enemies, from ‘lone wolf’ killers to terrifying pogroms. Should a new fascism emerge, it will coalesce from these very elements. This is disaster nationalism.
Richard Seymour delves deep into this alarming development in world politics, dissecting its roots, its influencers, and the threats it poses. With meticulous analysis and compelling storytelling, Seymour offers a stark warning. The battle against disaster nationalism is not just political; it is a struggle for our collective soul and the future of civilization itself. Unless we understand the deeper forces propelling the far-right resurgence, we have little chance of stopping it.Support the show

"Creativity and Intoxication" with Adam C. Jones: https://thenewcentre.org/seminars/creativity-and-intoxication/
In this episode, we explore Félix Guattari’s essay "Everybody Wants to Be a Fascist", dissecting its critique of micro-fascisms in everyday life. The discussion examines how desire, power, and subjectivity become entangled in oppressive structures beyond traditional authoritarianism. Drawing from Guattari’s solo work and his collaboration with Gilles Deleuze, we analyze how resistance must operate at both individual and collective levels to escape fascistic formations in contemporary society.

The rise of "acid fascism" emerges as a rival to Mark Fisher's concept of "acid communism." How do contemporary trends in online fascist politics converge with the broader reactionary turn shaping today's world?Support the show

This special episode features a replay of Claire Colebrook’s presentation of her paper What’s Wrong with Extinction?, delivered at the Time, Waste, Extinction workshop held at Penn State University in September 2024. Acid Horizon was proud to collaborate with this event, bringing together leading thinkers to interrogate the cultural, ethical, and political frameworks through which extinction is commonly understood.In this talk, Claire challenges anthropocentric assumptions underlying ecological and ethical debates, urging a reconsideration of extinction beyond human survival and crisis narratives. The presentation offers a compelling exploration of extinction’s implications for life, ethics, and political imagination.

This episode features a live recording of The Coolness of the Absolute, an Acid Horizon event held in State College during the fall of 2024. Penn State philosophy professor Josh Wretzel reinterprets Hegel’s Jena Phenomenology as a moral psychology, exploring three varieties of moral personality and their culmination in absolute knowing. Josh connects these ideas to the cool jazz of Miles Davis, offering a profound reflection on how both philosophy and jazz embody calm contemplation amidst disruption.

"Are We Still Able to Die?": https://camtology.substack.com/p/are-we-still-able-to-die
In this episode of Acid Horizon, we are joined by philosopher and writer Cameron Carsten to discuss his recent blog post, "Are We Still Able to Die?"—the first installment in his series Power as Reality. Cameron’s work delves into the nature of power as the control over reality, tracing its manifestations through domination, hegemony, and the symbolic dimensions of life and death. Drawing on thinkers like Baudrillard, Foucault, Deleuze, and Guattari, this conversation also confronts urgent questions of meaning, fulfillment, and resistance in the shadow of the emerging Trump 2.0 era.Support the show
