Links for “The Harman Review: Bruno Latour’s Empirical Metaphysics” symposium

By Peter Erdélyi

As my Google Analytics dashboard is telling me that people are landing on this site while looking for an event involving Graham Harman at the LSE on the 5th February 2008 (for which I was the lead organiser), let me just add a few pointers here to make their search more fruitful. I do intend to write a more extensive account of the event here shortly but I would like to listen to the recording again before I do that. The LSE page for “The Harman Review: Bruno Latour’s Empirical Metaphysics” contains the schedule for the event, a picture, as well as MP3 recordings. There is some further information (including photos, an audio recording, links and comments) about the event on the ANTHEM blog. And a high-quality WMA recording of the whole symposium can be downloaded from here as a single file.

There was also an earlier talk Graham Harman gave at the LSE on 29 November 2007 entitled “On Actors, Networks, and Plasma: Heidegger vs. Latour vs. Heidegger,” for which the abstract, the slides and an MP3 recording are available on the ISRF website, while a higher quality WMA recording is on the ANTHEM blog.

Update [24 June 2009]: A PDF version of Harman’s book that served as the basis for discussion at the Harman Review event is now available from the publisher’s website: Prince of Networks: Bruno Latour and Metaphysics.
