A dizzying trip through the mind(s) of the provocative and
influential thinker Nick Land. During the 1990s British philosopher
Nick Land's unique work, variously described as "rabid nihilism,"
"mad black deleuzianism," and "cybergothic," developed perhaps the
only rigorous and culturally-engaged escape route out of the
malaise of "continental philosophy" -a route that was implacably
blocked by the academy. However, Land's work has continued to exert
an influence, both through the British "speculative realist"
philosophers who studied with him, and through the many cultural
producers-writers, artists, musicians, filmmakers-who have been
invigorated by his uncompromising and abrasive philosophical
vision. Beginning with Land's early radical rereadings of
Heidegger, Nietzsche, Kant and Bataille, the volume collects
together the papers, talks and articles of the mid-90s-long the
subject of rumour and vague legend (including some work which has
never previously appeared in print)-in which Land developed his
futuristic theory-fiction of cybercapitalism gone amok; and ends
with his enigmatic later writings in which Ballardian fictions,
poetics, cryptography, anthropology, grammatology and the occult
are smeared into unrecognisable hybrids. Fanged Noumena gives a
dizzying perspective on the entire trajectory of this provocative
and influential thinker's work, and has introduced his unique voice
to a new generation of readers.
