Ctrl Network Matt Colquhoun Postcapitalist Desire Guest Lecture

A Brief History of the New

How do we free ourselves from the tyranny of the "post-"? Jumping off from Fisher's unfinished lecture series, which ends with post-structuralism's moment of absolute negation, this lecture will return to the philosophy's beginnings, tracing a wandering line of abstraction from Heraclitus to the Ccru, considering how "the new" has been thought and we might begin to think "the new" anew again.

Concluding the Ctrl Network reading group series exploring the lecture transcripts of Matt Colquhoun's Postcapitalist Desire: Mark Fisher the Final Lectures, we are very excited to host a special guest lecture from Matt on Wednesday 21st April 2021, 1-3pm, with a chance for attendees to ask questions.

This event will take place online via Zoom. A link will be supplied nearer the time. There are limited places at this event so register early to avoid disappointment!

Please note, Matt's lecture will be recorded and made available at a future date on our website.

In the meantime, our reading group will be exploring the final lecture transcripts as well as Matt's introduction to the book in our monthly online sessions. All are welcome to join. To find out more, see our website.
