“Schizophonophilia”: An Audio-Interplay Between Wayde Compton and Paul Watkins
No full textPaul Watkins sits down in Wayde Compton’s office in Vancouver for a personal and engaging interview. They discuss a wide range of topics, including Black British Columbian history and the historical black community of Hogan’s Alley, identity and race, improvising Blackness, Compton’s literary influences, the importance of tradition, formal and stylistic innovations, Kamau Brathwaite’s notion of tidalectics (a cyclical interpretation of history), multiculturalism, the role of the DJ as archivist, hip-hop and jazz music and culture, among other multifarious topics.
The interview is available in a variety of audio formats, including its original unedited version, as well as in three sonic remixes, allowing the interview to embody the practice of “schizophonophilia” (the love of audio interplay) rather than only theorizing it
Paul and Matilda Dunbar photograph
No full textPortrait of poet Paul Laurence Dunbar with his mother, Matilda Dunbar, Dayton, Ohio, ca. 1890-1900. Josephine Watkins Lehman, known to Dunbar as "Aunt Bam," was the daughter of Dunbar's high school principal and mentor, William Watkins. She is credited with taking this photograph. Paul Laurence Dunbar was born in Dayton, Ohio, in 1872 to Joshua and Matilda Dunbar, both former slaves, and was encouraged by his mother in poetry and his schooling from an early age. He attended Dayton Central High School and was the sole African American student at that time. Following his high school graduation, Dunbar worked as an elevator operator while writing poetry in his free time. He built a reputation as a successful literary voice and writer of dialect poetry, and was the first African American poet to receive critical acclaim for his work. Dunbar authored twelve collections of poetry, five novels, one play, and a large number of newspaper articles before his death from tuberculosis on February 9, 1906. He is buried in the Woodland Cemetery in Dayton

Hegel after Deleuze and Guattari : freedom in philosophy and the state
No full textIn the thesis I explain why an immanent approach in philosophy means taking contingency to be "irreducible". I show why Deleuze and Guattari believe this to be the case and why they think Hegel fails to do this. I then go on to show in what way Hegel incorporates contingency into his system and how he also creates his own sense of "necessity" that emerges from the systematic treatment of contingent concepts. In this way I show how Hegel can respond to the demand for immanence made by Deleuze and Guattari. I suggest that freedom, for Hegel, consists in the systematic treatment of contingency in our lives and in our thinking
