Ray Brassier on Herbert Marcuse's '5 Lectures' with Acid Horizon

The Acid Horizon crew are joined by Ray Brassier to discuss the new edition of Marcuse's 5 Lectures, out on Repeater Books as 'Psychoanalysis, Politics, and Utopia', which he wrote the introduction for. We discuss Marcuse's influence on accelerationism, his historical materialist take on Freudian psychoanalysis, and the function of repression and enjoyment in a capitalist landscape where scarcity appears increasingly artificial in light of technological and cybernetic advances in production.
