15:30 - 19:00

The University of Warwick Philosophy Society invites you to a Symposium on the 'Non-Philosophy' of François Laruelle.
After an introductory panel comprised of Nick Srnicek (LSE), Anthony Paul Smith (Nottingham) and Reid Kotlas (Dundee) François Laruelle himself will present his new paper "From the First to the Second Non-Philosophy".
"In "From the First to the Second Non-Philosophy" François Laruelle deepens the practice of non-philosophy by rethinking its two main principles, that of radical immanence and the syntax of unilateral duality, through the concepts of the "generic" and the mathematical operators of quantum physics.”
