Weird Studies

Weird Studies is a bi-weekly podcast where professor Phil Ford and filmmaker JF Martel host a series of conversations on art and philosophy, dwelling on ideas and artworks that open up rifts in what we are pleased to call "reality." All episodes are available for free at weirdstudies.com and whenever the finest podcasts are to be found. 

The Weird resists any settled explanation or frame of reference. It is the bulging file labeled “other/miscellaneous” in our mental filing cabinet, full of supernatural entities, magical synchronicities, and occult rites. But it also appears when a work of art breaks in on our habits of perception and ordinary things become uncanny.
