"They are wont to deliberate when drinking hard about the most important of their affairs, and whatever conclusion has pleased them, this on the next day, when they are sober, the master of the house where they happen to deliberate lays before them for discussion. If it pleases them when they are sober also, they adopt it, but if it does not please them, they let it go. Whatever they have had the first deliberation on when they are sober, they consider again when they are drinking. (1.133)"

Dear Friends,
 
On Thursday April 10th, the Melbourne School of Continental Philosophy will be hosting a special one-night-only performance at the Wheeler Centre. To celebrate the launch of Lacan, Deleuze, Badiou by A.J. Bartlett, Justin Clemens and Jon Roffe, the MSCP will be presenting a symposium, in which the book's three authors will enact a spontaneous sample of the reflections and polemics, the digressions and aporiai, the aphorisms, epiphanies, accusations and ad hominem attacks in, through and by which their (truly remarkable) book ("a book by three thinkers who disagree about everything on three thinkers who disagree about everything") has been brought into existence. Spurning the conventional form of the book-launch, as well as the didactic elements of an academic event, audience interventions may or may not be tolerated, but probably won't be.. The performance will run for approximately 110 minutes.
 
The event is free but registration is essential as places are strictly limited. Please register at http://www.mscp.org.au/workshops/lacan-deleuze-badiou-symposium
