In this episode, Justin and Matt speak with Andrew Culp. Andrew Culp (MA 2009, Ph.D. 2013) is a Professor of Media History and Theory and Program Director of the MA Aesthetics and Politics program (starting Spring 2023) in the School of Critical Studies and in the MA Aesthetics and Politics Program, California Institute of the Arts (CalArts). In his first book, Dark Deleuze (University of Minnesota Press, 2016), he proposes a revolutionary new image of Gilles Deleuze’s thought suited to our 24/7 always-on media environment, and it has been translated into eight languages. With his second book, A Guerrilla Guide to Refusal (University of Minnesota Press, 2022), he arms the reader with critical theory as part of a journey through anarchist infowar, queer outlaws, and Black insurgency. He is currently working on two projects: a new structuralist theory of the state’s arkhḗ, and a critical history of cybernetics from those subverting it from its inside. Culp’s writing on these and other topics has appeared in Flügschriften, Radical Philosophy, symplokē, parallax, angelaki, Deleuziana, The Alienocene, and Boundary 2 online. As part of The Destructionist International, he also makes films and other media. His most recent is the experimental documentary Machines in Flames (2022), which explores the legacy of techno-sabotage.
