Description

What is the next New Weird? How might ‘weirding’ help generate collective virtual or physical spaces to resist cultural binaries, and do these amorphic, slippery forms of language provide tools to resist totalising phrases of good and evil? 


For this episode, we recap the 4 artist works featured on our New Weird mini-series, revisiting questions of how the tools of this literary genre might provide emancipatory places to build new worlds from. Revisiting Philip Speakman’s use of weirding, Jelena Viskovic’s surrealism, Chris MacInnes and Chaos Theory, and Monya Riachi’s rejection of worldbuilding, your hosts thread these themes across the past episodes alongside our own research in a free flowing conversation.
