Andrew Venard-Smart

Andrew is a Speculative Post-Qualitative Researcher. He conducts fieldwork in the wilds beyond certainty. His work does not fit neat categories, and he reserves his right to be misunderstood. His work sits at the intersection of process philosophy, cultural critique, and what he calls Contemplative Dis-order. His offerings do not promise the end of suffering. Instead, he asks uncomfortable questions, leading to dangerous, but fertile work. This appeals to those who are tired of being told their life is a project to be optimised. He is completing an MSc in Consciousness Studies and Transpersonal Psychology, preparing for PhD research into the sublime terror of sacred uncertainty. Find his writings at The Slow Gaze.
