Hermitix is a completely new podcast focusing on one-on-one interviews relating to fringe philosophy, obscure theory, esotericism, underappreciated thinkers and movements, and that which historically finds itself ‘outside’ the academic canon.

The aim of the podcast is to allow autodidactic thinkers, amateur philosophers and the generally curious an insight into the work of thinkers and movements who/which are often impenetrable to those outside of the academy. With the discussions at Hermitix aiming to be informal idea barrages which attempt to retain the excitement of fringe theory without falling into the structural ‘niche’ pitfalls of the academy.

The episodes will be between 1-2 hours and will be made available via multiple hosting sites. It will be hosted by me, Meta-Nomad.

Hermitix is currently in the process of recording its very first episodes and as such has little to no physical or virtual existence as of this moment. This is largely due to the fact various podcasting
catalogs have content requirements with regards to popularity, that is, beginning a new podcast with only one episode is bad form. And so, Hermitix wishes not to exist until it can safely to hit the ground running with a handful of episodes ready. Which will be in the next 2 weeks.

The range of speakers Hermitix intends to interview includes, but isn’t limited to: PHd students, authors, philosophers, theorists and prominent bloggers.

At the time of its launch Hermitix’s hub will be at: www.hermitix.net

Updates and latest episodes will be posted here also.

Hey all, the blog admittedly has been fairly quiet of late. Well, there’s been the House of Leaves and The Familiar posts etc., though I haven’t actually produced anything original recently. Firstly, some stuff is in the works, many, many things actually, the problem in being I haven’t concentrated on anyone too much. Anyway, a few things. The House of Leaves posts and The Familiar posts wont be anywhere near as frequent, as they were getting sloppy and I want them to have some merit at least. I’m not going to put a date on when the next one will be etc., just know that I am still working.
