Capitalism as a Bearer of the Uncanny: An Interview with Michael Ashkin by Eugenie Shinkle

‘Our subjectivities are composites largely formed by invasive, jealous, and conflicting forces originating in our shared economic and ideological space. And as unstable and contradictory as these forces are, so, too, are our subjectivities, such that we live alienated both from ourselves and from our surroundings. This alienation is the gap in which I work.’ -Michael Ashkin
