Is Accelerationism dead already?

Hello everyone!

Months ago I read an introductory book about Accelerationism and CCRU, then I dropped the matter.

Last night I started reading "Capitalist Realism" and was blown away, so my fascination with Accelerationism and CCRU came strongly back.

What I'd like to ask you is if L/R Accelerationism are still a thing or if they're dead, and if you could suggest me some works of the likes of these. Maybe(even if it's not the same stuff) something about post-humanism/trans-humanism, OOO or whatever else may exist of which I'm not aware of, or maybe other books regarding Accelerationism.

Thanks a bunch in advance!

Accelerationism is not dead, it simply never had a strong presence in either academia or small publishing. If you do want to familiarize yourself with acc though, you might want to try Nick Lands 'Fanged Noumena' as a starting point. Generally speaking, the deeper you go into acc the less official your sources will be: WordPress blogs, YouTube, the weird part of Twitter and so forth. 

Reading about the CCRU is pretty enlightening as to where acc thought came from, so that is another starting point you could take up. Sadie Plant, Kodwo Eshun and Mark Fisher have both published a decent amount of material the traditional way.

You could also trace back their thought philosophically. I'd suggest getting a cursory overview of Deleuze, then diving into his work. The capitalism and shizophrenia books are massively influential. Also, not philosophy in the sense we're used to it, but you definitely want to read a lot of H. P. Lovecraft and Neuromancer. The CCRU was a culture research unit after all and these were some of the books that  informed their outlook. Happy reading.
