I keep saying that @bloodwork.show is a dialogue and an invitation because I mean that. I want to have discussions with people about what violence *is*, to them, and what it means, and so if you are open to having that discussion, in any idiom, please, email: [email protected]

With @bloodwork.show scheduled to drop shortly, maybe one way to explain my motivation behind the project is this sense that violence is increasingly being embraced by one side with no idea what it ultimately wants against another side that refuses to confront how serious they are about wielding it.

@gregk.co.uk and I are feeling generous so there’s two episodes of @bloodwork.show dropping tomorrow instead of one.

Make sure to tap in.

Fairly easy to see current anti-immigration politics as a right wing phenomenon mostly pertaining to refugees. But it’s also worth remembering that this is taking place in a context in which the very idea of being a citizen is being dismantled even from people who live in the west

Thank you for sharing!

Questions about masculinity, fantasy and desire are ones we want to confront. In what feels like an era of increasing acceptance of, desire for, celebration of and calls for violence, maybe two questions are: Do people really want what they think they want? Do they even know what that thing is?

Episode 3 will be an introduction to Benjamin and this essay and a (hilarious) attempt to provide a brief overview to the uninitiated, with an aim to repeatedly returning over time to drill into particular segments, themes and possibilities with future guests.

Episode 1 is now in review. @gotitatguineys.bsky.social has accomplished the unthinkable – produced a recording of my own voice that I can bear to listen to.

Will keep you posted, but not long to go now.

@bloodwork.show wants YOU to get serious about the politics, economics, poetics and functions of VIOLENCE.

Have you read this book? Would you like to talk about it in the context of emergent strategies of violence as a dialectical process? Are you a non-insane person?

@bloodwork.show wants YOU

I have officially locked down the theme song for @bloodwork.show and it is a doozy.

Alms to the Mother
Deader than Saturn

When we think about labour, we tend to think of productive activity that culminates in the creation of a good or the provision of a service with utility. But what about those forms of labour whose product is injury, containment, or death; or whose end product is not a good or service, but destruction? What about those workers whose labour is the labour of violence?
BLOOD WORK explores both the political-economy and the practical activities of violence work in its many variegated forms; from day-to-day violence workers, to the functions they perform within and on behalf of the state (and its auxiliaries); to particular case studies in violence work; to ruminations on the political and economic functions of violence, and how labour whose product is destruction is, counterintuitively, central to the general activity of production itself.
