Happy Wednesday!
So what do you call the participants in symposia? :)
I've been thinking
convivials
-- the Latin for symposium would be
convivium
...
Ah, a "symposiast" :)
--So, happy Wednesday, symposiasts...
Convivial millenials... :)

@Cerberus would you be into trying to attack some short essays or excerpts with us?
Are there any suggestions you might make? :)

Mark Fisher has an interesting essay in vol. II of
Incognitum Hactenus
[PDF], 'A Critique of Practical Nihilism: Agency in Scott Bakker’s “Neuropath”'
Another short suggestion: Eileen Joy's
"Weird Reading"
from
Speculations IV
.
--Just some things on my radar; wouldn't want to precode the themes or questions of the reading/study exercise.
