Podcast Overview
<p>Going deep together into the "Classics" that have called from "Elsewhere" to the unfathomable depths within. David Tracy thought of a "Classic" as a work that was open to multiple, productive interpretations, which could be anything from a text to a work of art to a religious practice. Jean-Luc Marion thought of "Elsewhere" appearing here as the sort of "Saturated Phenomena" that allowed for radical otherness to speak for itself without exhausting or reducing its meaning to the understandable, which he thought of in terms of Maurice Merleau-Ponty's the invisible appearing without becoming merely visible. Communities of interpretations, called by Hans-Georg Gadamer and Paul Ricoeur "Hermeneutic Circles" after Heidegger's teachings on the matter of the interpretation of being, are religious rituals that form a community of interpreters.</p>

Deciding to Stay Sick: Backrooms
What about when we choose our disease? There is a scene in Backrooms in which the protagonist "Clark," played by Chiwetel Ejiofor, decides to stay in his disease because coming out of it would mean taking responsibility for things that he doesn't feel responsible for, and what's more, giving up on the enjoyment of blaming others. There is an ambiguity about who or what is responsible where mental illness is concerned. Is environment, genetics, or something else to blame? Regardless, the conun...

When Isn't Nostalgia Poison? BOC: Inferno
Nostalgia is poison. So why do I like BOC so much? BOC's nostalgia isn't saccharine but complicated. When remembering is blocked by a nostalgic concept, the past becomes a projection of the rememberer's wish-fulfillment fantasy. The general structure of this sort of fantasy projection is that of the fascist who imagines a past greatness, or a lost Eden, that never was to recover the past from a decadent present. It is a well worn and now all too obvious observation that "Make America Gr...
