Luc Hagopian is a writer-director of films aimed at the expression of pre-verbal images as thought, as well as an academic writer caught within the tempest of continental philosophy. His principle intent lies in the exploration and development of the twinned intensification of cinema art and rigorous theory in concert. Prominent interests include Kant’s ontology, Nietzschean aesthesis and polemic evaluation, Bataille’s inner experience, Foucauldian genealogical practices, and Lemurian time sorcery. Emerging from the depressive, dripping forests of rural Cascadia, Hagopian seeks to investigate the problematic of territorialization in anthropic and inhuman systems. He is currently studying Critical Philosophy at the New Centre for Research and Practice, as well as engaging in communion with H*stur the Yellow King, or Plague Vector.
