A Discussion with Alexander Galloway, Ian James, and John Ó Maoilearca: Many philosophies claim to be practical: performativity, praxis, practice-based thought, truth procedures and enquiries, and even artistic performance have each been connected to various philosophical positions. So what, if anything, makes François Laruelle’s Non-Standard Philosophy different? ‘What Can We Do With Non-Philosophy?’ brings together three researchers whose work aims in part to elucidate the theoretical-practical uses of Non-Philosophy in a range of fields from science studies, through media studies, to animal and film studies. In each case they ask: how can this ‘future thought’ change the relation of theory to practice? What can be done with non-philosophy that changes what we do with anything, or everything, else?
