New lecture at Konstfack coming up
Welcome to the forthcoming Konstfack Common Seminar with Carl Abrahamsson, “Occulturation & Epistemology – the creative relationship between Utilitarianism and Cerebral Neutrality” 23rd NOVEMBER 2022, 10:00 – 12:00 CET/UTC+1. Open to everyone, not just students/academics.
Online at Zoom: https://konstfack-se.zoom.us/j/2621150454
OVERVIEW:
The Western mind-frame/culture often creates an unnecessary divide between the “rational” and “irrational” minds – no doubt a result of convenient over-simplification stemming from early 20th century attraction to and fetishization of scientific models. Much of this can be made redundant by looking at epistemology through an arc of occulturation: ideas grow in the hidden, enter a twilight (preliminary) zone and are then birthed into a visible, tangible sphere of evaluation and use. In this talk, I will look at the terms and phenomena throughout history, and suggest how they can be applied today in various disciplines.

A new Carl & Vanessa film
A new film: RESEDUCTION, by me and Vanessa. It’s a great cine-slap clip trip – enjoy!
An intimate view in-between the lines of enforced eternity. What has once been will now be once again: a reseduction of the world in awaiting those sensual messages from yourself that you can usually see so clearly in the mirror. An undress rehearsal in slow motion – as slow as befits your fast-paced mind. Circular movements on straight lines, jumping up to the sky on your bare knees, opening up to corporeal closure. Please remember: it is an examination of absolutely nothing that will provide all of this and more. As in A More; as in Re Seduction.

Thoth Hermes Switch-up!
Switching perspectives! I just interviewed Rudolf from the Thoth Hermes podcast/empire… We talked about five years of excellent and well-researched podcasting on Rudolf’s side, which has created an esoteric academy of sorts of intelligent and inspiring thoughts and concepts. Don’t miss this!
S8-E24 – Once in five years…-Rudolf M Berger
