This is my talk, “Objects, Aesthetics, Causality.” Sort of a teaser for Realist Magic, which is nearly done. Very nicely introduced by Eugene Thacker too.
Hi Tim. Do you have a way of posting video/audio files without advertisements? I get bummed when I hit play, expecting to get my TM fix for the day, and instead get told I need an SUV or something other than pure soap to wash myself with.
Have you heard of the Internet Archive? I think you'd be interested in uploading some stuff to it. Let me know if you do. It's free and very prestigious. It's www.archive.org
Another thought: you, like Žižek, are like a philosophical Robin Williams. Have seen his stand-up? He is a stream, an unstoppable stream, of jokes, voices, movements, parodies, almost beyond his own control, or really being completely himself, and I have to stop when I watch him on video, to enjoy, or to freeze his humor to think about it. Your talks are like this, except philosophical---you have said something so bright, but brief, I am not sure I heard it, but think, "wait, wait, that sounded quite important," and I have to go back. It's not just a talk, it's really an experience.

A tour de force, as always. Almost overwhelming.
