I’m a (very) low-paid care worker. All my academic work is now done outside the mainstream institutions.
You can subscribe for free to this substack and all posts will remain free, although I only allow paid subscribers to comment on substack itself. If you can’t afford to subscribe but want to discuss things with me, then please use one of my other channels of communication listed below.
I welcome paid subscriptions as it enables me to buy books and pay for creative materials.
If you do take out a paid subscription, I will happily send you free copies of my zines (or pamphlets), just message me with an address to send them to.
You can buy the zines here on my Kofi shop.
I'm a working class philosopher, sorcerer and revolutionary from Brighton, with a keen interest in both traditions of philosophy. I gained my doctorate in Philosophy at Sussex University (2005). My thesis was on Deleuzian ontology. (It included a reading of Wittgenstein's Tractatus, not a normal conjunction).
From 2005 through 2013 I taught philosophy at the University of Greenwich in London. I then spent over a decade teaching and organising with the Free University Brighton. My current research is with the Freudian Spaceship.
I experimented with video streaming as a way to do 'philosophy in public', prompted by the COVID lockdown, and you can find some courses and seminars on my Twitch page.
I have been a revolutionary all my life and was a Poll Tax rioter, imprisoned for two and half years in 1991. For the last decade or so, I've been a member of Plan C.
I have been a sorcerer for some 30 years and work within the chaos magick tradition and have run various working groups as well as the Fotamecus film project.
I also ride a motorcycle.
