Over the past five years, I have had the privilege of collaborating with sociologist Mahoro Murasawa—with whom I continue to work at present—on research conducted in Guattari’s archive at IMEC; with media-studies scholar Gary Genosko and psychiatrist Stéphane Nadaud on the publication of one of Félix Guattari’s theatrical works; and with psychologist Eduardo Bernasconi in a series of dialogues on philosophy and psychoanalysis.
In addition, contemporary philosophers Patrice Maniglier and Richard Polt, sociologist Bronislaw Szerszynski, classicist R. Drew Griffith, and art historian Sotirios Bahtsetzis, along with philosophy scholars Manola Antonioli, Ingrid Basso, Susanne Claxton, Steve Corcoran, Artemy Magun, Yasuhiko Masuda, Jarrad Reddekop, and psychologist Sergio Ragonese, have generously and variously engaged with my work—as have editors Amy Ivernizzi and Robin James (at Palgrave Macmillan), Philip Dunshea (at Peter Lang), and Liza Thompson (at Bloomsbury).
Besides, I currently collaborate at Incite Seminars with writer and educator Glenn Wallis, editor and cultural theorist Hannes Schumacher, and several other colleagues—including philosopher Philippe Lynes, musicologist Gorica Orsholits, philosophy scholars Camilo Rios and Andrea de Donato, and literary-studies scholars Kim Schoof and Alex Obrigewitsch.
Also, I have recently begun collaborating with Christopher Droppa—a brilliant early-career philosopher—on a number of initiatives in philosophy conducted outside institutional and academic settings, and with poet Carla Aparicio.
Yet all this would be incomplete without mentioning my close collaboration with my life partner, butō dancer and performance artist Sofya Shaikut, with whom I share a life of ongoing artistic and philosophical co-creation—as exemplified by our joint poetry-and-dance performance on brutalist architecture at the Istituto Italiano di Cultural in Berlin in May 2025, upon invitation from its director, Alessandro Turci.
To all of them, my deepest gratitude.
