LEPHT HANDWriting as Exorcism: Dreams and Dissolution in the Work of Henri Michaux (with Garett Strickland)Subscribe to LEPHT HAND for early access to episodes!Henri Michaux wrote as if to exorcise himself from existence. His poetry and prose traverse dream, delirium, and the slow undoing of identity, where language becomes both scalpel and spell. In this episode, Garett Strickland joins Sereptie to explore A Certain Plume, Darkness Moves (anthology), and Michaux’s hallucinatory experiments as acts of metaphysical revolt. Together they consider how writing, for Michaux, becomes an art of disappearance—a way of turning life itself into an exorcism.Acéphalous and Vintagia updates: https://splitinfinities.substack.com/p/aceph...

But it’s an all-together different thing to launch a drinks brand — even one that is informed by your bartending experience, like Idle Hands Drinks Co. owners Andy McIntyre and Mitch Keane have done.
