Episode 3: Foreword

This is a philosophical hyper-book, a work in progress aimed at giving the first book length commentary on Alain Badiou's THE IMMANENCE OF TRUTHS, François Laruelle’s A BIOGRAPHY OF ORDINARY MAN, Laruelle's TETRALOGOS, and Slavoj Zizek's SEX AND THE FAILED ABSOLUTE. A classical scholarly or academic approach to reading these books is inappropriate to their subject matter, so a thought-in-the-making approach may show itself more suitable. The hyper-book form, composed of video-book, audio podcast, blog posts, and interviews is particularly adapted to this read-along, think-it-through approach.
