Нестандартные исчисления

The third volume of the collected works of the English philosopher and writer Nick Lund includes works united by two themes. The first of these is his personal experiments with non-standard scripts and calculus, mostly carried out outside the framework of the collective practices of the Cybernetic Culture Research Group (CGCC), and developing topics that Lad has not retreated from until now, such as Ytsukenomics or Kabbalah. Some of these texts are as informal and wild as possible - you can read them only in the mode of "viral-experimental poetry". Others are not only from relatively normal sentences, but also turn to reality. Land immediately applies his non-standard understanding of calculus and the connection of mathematics with thinking in the field of economics and artificial intelligence, which, however, are almost indistinguishable for him - this trend begins in the late nineties, but continues to this day, and Land's recent work on this topic also included in this volume. The second topic is the origins of the GICC and their hyperveral “double”, the Cthulhu Club, used by the GICC as a conceptual character for the study of cybernetic and demonic, as well as universal conspiracies, large-scale sects, impending catastrophes and other indispensable attributes of hyperstition. Finally, this volume would not have been completed without The Critique of Transcendental Miserabilism and The Dirty Joke, Land's scathing commentaries on left-wing politics and himself in the twilight of his academic career.
