Along with Mark Daniel Cohen, he is a chief editor of Hyperion: On the Future of Aesthetics. His second novel, THE ABDICATION, is forthcoming from Contra Mundum Press in 2012. He is also working on ALIEN & ILLOGICAL POWERS, a philosophical work that concerns synaesthesia, incubation, poetics, and other esoteric dimensions of Nietzsche’s thought. |
