On Nick Land

See: Nick Land.If you want to intelligently assess Lands contribution for yourself simply read him and read three writers who were powerfully facilitated by Land : Mark Fisher; Iain Hamilton-Grant and Ray Brassier. You might keep in mind that Land was the first significantly different reception of Deleuze after Negris. Besides Deleuze you might find it interesting to read Lyotard and Baudrillards work as a component of Lands. To get a perspective on accelerationism you might find Virilio and Kittler useful. Of course these works are all quite old so you might prefer starting from the present and working back. In my view the strongest Deleuzian working today is Andrew Culp and you can use the Tiqqun collective to bridge his work back towards the Land era . Have fun working out your own view of the things that you like or dont like — Jean-Pierre de la Porte 19jan19
