A video which introduces potential NRO informants and accomplices to the concept of Savage Philosophy™, which asserts that signs have a real and physical connection with things, that signs take part in things instead of taking their place. Savage Philosophy™ operates through discourse, which is not merely an instrument for the communication of thought, but an occasion for the deployment of forces. If magic confuses representation with reality, savage philosophy makes representation into reality. This introductory video explores Savage Philosophy’s™ potential to realize Indigenous futures.

Part of The Savage Philosophy of Endless Acknowledgment suite.
