A collection of clips of Labour MP's condoning genocide.
Never forget, never forgive.
I've just put a couple of short audio pieces I recorded for my friend Costis Neuma. The first is a short biographical piece about how I became a Deleuze scholar, the second a discussion of the risks of the molecular in the modern world - enjoy!

Looking forward to talking with @acploug and Ian James next week about Hegel, abstract thought, problems, and French philosophy in Cambridge! Details here if you can make it: crassh.cam.ac.uk/events/5150…
I had a chat with Brent Adkins about my new monograph, Reading A Thousand Plateaus, for Edinburgh University Press's blog - they edited it down, but you can read the full discussion here:

Adam Jones' 'The New Flesh' spotted in the wild - available at all good (or at least the very best) bookshops. Looking forward to reading this. @G_Rd_Books @acidhorizonpod
Somewhat unexpectedly, it looks like my book on A Thousand Plateaus is actually now published, at least in ebook form - it looks like you can download it from EUP, or on kindle from amazon (and read the intros on the latter for free):

It's official - I'm now an 'existentialist philosopher'. Look out for my follow-up on Camus and Mothering Sunday.

Leverhulme Early Career Fellowships! We have a departmental competition in December so get in touch with me or one of my colleagues before then if you're thinking about going for one with Philosophy at Royal Holloway:

'Gaza, which now has the highest number of child amputees per capita anywhere in the world, is no exception.' Stories like this, from the UN, from August, are everyday now. The shame of it.
