Philo-Fictions:
The Journal of Non-Philosophies
An ONPhI journal that welcomes non-philosophical or non-standard texts, published in thematic issues available as free PDFs. 4 issues · 38 articles.
About the journal
“Philo-Fictions: The Journal of Non-Philosophies” is meant to receive so-called “non-philosophical” or “non-standard” texts and to form from them a kind of inspiring body.
The minimum requirement is to admit that the real precedes philosophy, and to transform philosophical statements in light of that hypothesis. Philosophy loses all authority over the real, and fiction is accepted as the story whose beginning and end you neither foresee nor await.
Issues
Each issue explores a theme — clandestinity, fiction, translation, energy — as material to be fictioned according to the Real.
Énergie, un sort à défendre
From Gilbert Kieffer to Jonathan Fardy, via Anne-Françoise Schmid and Xavier Pavie — energy as power, innovation and vibration.
