Philosophy Portal | PHILOSOPHY OF LACK 2.5: Prelude to Perfection (w/ Alex Ebert) @PhilosophyPortal | Uploaded September 2021 | Updated October 2024, 36 minutes ago.
The next Philosophy Portal course focused on the Écrits starts September 3 2023: https://philosophyportal.online/ecrits
We feel the lack of an absolute being, and reality itself seems to lack as a split between atom/void. Here we play with the imaginary of the mind which exists in this split between nothing and everything: what would it look like if we could “subtract lack” or “become lack" and “connect to the absolute”? Would we be “fucking everything”? Would we exist in a “giant social orgy”? To start this dialogue, I give the personal example of a psychedelic experience which "connected to the absolute", the feeling of such a state, as well as the after-effects. We then spend the majority of the discourse discussing dialectical dynamics of our relations to the feeling of the absolute under the model of "oscillations and negativity". From this we push towards the idea of a dialectical-historical understanding of the emergence of "perfect form".
