Theory Underground is not against the IDEA of the University. We're against people who want to go hard and get serious about the life of the mind being barred access, which is functionally done when we don't even know what challenges exist, much less when the bar of those challenges gets lowered in too hasty an attempt to broaden access.

In the same way that Žižek talks about how a concept can evolve just in how it gets applied to something, likewise I would say that timenergy theory evolves in this event because of three factors: 1. New audience (it always takes on some new clarity with new audiences), 2. Bringing it expressly into dialogue with the commons, which I have never tarried with… I do get into it els...
