Extensive source and work census. Unverified work records are marked accordingly.
Negromancy / Research programme · Open call
A philosophy under examination.
Trace how historically constituted relations become perceptible, authoritative, embodied and actionable. Test what changes through Conjuration. Disagreement is research.
The project
Questions before doctrine.
What historical relations remain active in the present? Through which mediations do they become recognizable? What conditions permit a different, answerable response?
Conjuration names the working inquiry: Mystery · Opacity · Conjuration/Sankofa · Witness · Testimony · Re-witness · Atonement. It is recursive; investigation may invalidate a prior interpretation.
