On an Ungrounded Earth: Towards a New Geophilosophy / Ben Woodard.
For too long, the Earth has been used to ground thought instead of bending it; such grounding leaves the planet as nothing but a stage for phenomenology, deconstruction, or other forms of anthropocentric philosophy.

Woodard, Ben (Benjamin Graham), author. On an Ungrounded Earth: Towards a New Geophilosophy Ben Woodard. Brooklyn, NY punctum books 2013 Brooklyn, NY. : Punctum Books, 2013. ©2013. 1 online resource (103 pages) : illustrations; digital, PDF file(s). text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier text file rda Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph Also available in print form. English Includes bibliographical references (pages 97-103). For too long, the Earth has been used to ground thought instead of bending it; such grounding leaves the planet as nothing but a stage for phenomenology, deconstruction, or other forms of anthropocentric philosophy. In far too much continental philosophy, the Earth is a cold, dead place enlivened only by human thought--either as a thing to be exploited, or as an object of nostalgia. Geophilosophy seeks instead to question the ground of thinking itself, the relation of the inorganic to the capacities and limits of thought. This book constructs an eclectic variant of geophilosophy through engagements with digging machines, nuclear waste, cyclones and volcanoes, giant worms, secret vessels, decay, subterranean cities, hell, demon souls, black suns, and xenoarcheaology, via continental theory (Nietzsche, Schelling, Deleuze, et alia) and various cultural objects such as horror films, videogames, and weird Lovecraftian fictions, with special attention to Speculative Realism and the work of Reza Negarestani. In a time where the earth as a whole is threatened by ecological collapse, On an Ungrounded Earth generates a perversely realist account of the earth as a dynamic engine materially invading and upsetting our attempts to reduce it to merely the ground beneath our feet.
