The Lamella and the Lacanian Break: Taylor Adkins on “Position of the Unconscious”

In this installment of The Anti-Oedipus Files, we welcome translator and theorist Taylor Adkins for a wide-ranging conversation on Lacan’s “Position of the Unconscious.” Beginning with a historical primer, we trace Lacan’s fraught institutional legacy and his confrontation with psychoanalytic orthodoxy. From the topology of the lamella to the philosophical rift between Guattari and Lacan, we explore the transformations of subjectivity, desire, and analytic practice. Taylor also shares insights into his collaborations on Machinic Unconscious Happy Hour and the broader landscape of Deleuze and Guattari studies.Finish the discussion here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/lamella-and-on-130562986?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_linkSupport Machinic Unconscious Happy Hour: https://www.patreon.com/muhhBack Vintagia Today: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/acidhorizon/vintagia-i-ching-oracle-for-psychogeographers-and-creativesSupport the showSupport the podcast:AHRCCurrent classes at Acid Horizon Research Commons (AHRC): acidhorizonresearchcommons.comAHRC Course Archive: https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/ahrc-course-archivesSubmit your course proposal: [email protected] LinksWebsite: https://www.acidhorizonpodcast.com/Linktree: https://linktr.ee/acidhorizonAcid Horizon on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/acidhorizonpodcastBoycott Watkins Media: https://xenogothic.com/2025/03/17/boycott-watkins-statement/Subscribe to us on your favorite podcast: https://pod.link/1512615438Merch: http://www.crit-drip.comSubscribe to us on your favorite podcast platform: https://pod.link/1512615438LEPHT HAND: https://www.patreon.com/LEPHTHANDHappy Hour at Hippel's (Adam’s blog): https://happyhourathippels.wordpress.com​Split Infinities (Craig’s Substack): https://splitinfinities.substack.com/​Music: https://sereptie.bandcamp.com/ and https://thecominginsurrection.bandcamp.com/
