God vind! 🍉⛵️⛵️⛵️🇵🇸

Very proud that my preprint on Marx and Radical Embodied Cognitive Science has been included in this week's version of The Syllabus's Best of Arts and Culture! Thanks you!

Spørgsmål til følgere/medlemmer af @dkmarxsoc.bsky.social: Jeg skal undervise i videnskabsteori til næste år. Hvad bruger I andre som introduktion til marxistisk teori (eller endog marxistisk videnskabsteori)? 3.-4. semester, ikke filosofi-studerende! Helst dansk-sproget, alternativt engelsk.

How does Radical Embodied Cognitive Science relate to Marxism? In a recent preprint, I discuss this question at length, drawing on work by @tonychemero.bsky.social, @sorenmau.bsky.social, @edbaggs.bsky.social and many others.

A well-deserved beer under the magnolia tree after Søren Mau's (@sorenmau.bsky.social) lecture on "Marx and the body" and the joint seminar on "Eco-Marxism: Action, Cognition, and Society in the Post-Anthropocene", co-organised with Søren Askegaard, Bryan Yazell and Kristoffer Balslev Willert.

I’m interested in how decolonial writing not only resists empire in content but also ways in which it can unsettle the architecture of language itself. What happens when we write from the borderlands and between rupture and rhythm?#decolonisecreativewriting #decolonialthoughts

Looking very much forward to Wednesday where I host the one and only @sorenmau.bsky.social in @d-ias.bsky.social at @sdu.dk. Søren will lecture on "Marx and the body". Do come by! Membership of @dkmarxsoc.bsky.social not required! sdunet.dk/en/updates/0...

Elon Musk, der nu vil skære på medicinalhjælp til de fattigste, har samtidig selv har fået milliarder i statsstøtte. Højrefløjens effektivisering handler reelt aldrig om at spare penge for staten, det handler om at kanalisere pengene i retning af dem selv. borsen.dk/nyheder/udla...

Hjem til dig og Aarhus, åhåh!

De oprindelige tal fra 2024 for antallet af døde under de første 9 måneder af seneste krig i Mellemøsten ser ud til at holde stik. Tal er taknemmelige i medier og politik men analysen kan de ikke ændre: www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Sad but true.

Not the best day for Denmark. But at least we can be glad that we haven't based our economy on selling overpriced insulin to the American market....

I'd rather drive a Wartburg than a Tesla.

Hvis nogen vil vide, hvordan dansk neokolonialisme ser ud, så kig på Hans Engell i dagens udgave af Besserwisserne på TV2 News.

There's still time to send in your abstracts for the workshop I'm hosting at the Department of Social Sciences and Business (ISE) at Roskilde University. We'll be exploring the critical and fascinating intersections of speculative fiction & speculative finance. I can't wait to read your submissions!

What are we DOING here? We're just meant to sit and act like this insane plagiarism and climate threat that requires more money than anything has ever cost is worth it? Are we meant to pretend that ChatGPT is worth this aimless, meaningless destruction of capital and our environment? For what?

Exactly!

Christmas Eve is also the birthday of Robert Kurz (* 24 December 1943; † 18 July 2012) "Anyone who still says that the capital fetish and its immanent 'rationality' have been a positive step in the history of humanity (this is true of the idealists of exchange, as historical idiots of the ideology

Some thoughts on the ongoing attempt to ban #TikTok in the US. The recent ruling of a US appeals court is discussed in Ars Technica - arstechnica.com/tech-policy/.... A quote from the article:

Jeg er helt enig med @mortensode.bsky.social, men vil nok tage den et skridt videre: "værdier" er en sølle ideologisk konstruktion, hvis eneste formål er at tjene som middel for de herskende klassers naturalisering af egen magtposition. Udtrykte "værdier" er alene bestemt af hvad der er opportunt.

Hello GOP. This is what you were meant to do after January 6th.

Jeg synes, der mangler en vigtig dimension af historierne om COOP's politianmeldelser for butikstyveri. Det er ikke et spørgsmål om bagatelgrænse, men om profit og ansvar. @tv2newsdk.bsky.social, @avisendanmark.dk.web.brid.gy echo.tv2.dk/2024-10-15-u... avisendanmark.dk/danmark/rebe...

We’ve had viable solutions for mobility both within & between cities for a long time, like high-speed rail, prioritized public transit and networks of protected bike-lanes. We need leadership. And we need to stop letting “shiny new tech” distract us from implementing them. Image via UrbanThoughts11

This is a scary read. Is it time to organise a profylactic resistance in European universities? We have our own share of right-wingers who won't hesitate to implement draconian measures here.
