Nick Land
About
Nick Land is an English philosopher, theorist, short story writer and blogger. He has been described as "the father of accelerationism", and was a leader of the 1990s collective Cybernetic Culture Research Unit after its original founder cyberfeminist theorist Sadie Plant departed from it. His work has since been tied to the development of accelerationism and speculative realism. His writing, beginning to take shape in the 1990s, has been described as "theory-fiction", departing from the formal conventions of academic writing and embracing a wide range of influences, as well as exploring unorthodox and "dark" philosophical interests.
