Concentrating on experientiality rather than experimentality, his sound works move towards a becoming-all-ears with no tympanum to welcome the coming into being of the -dividual.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aracag\u00f6k<\/strong> taught Continental philosophy and philosophy of art at various universities in Turkey and abroad. He published many scholarly articles on the issues of image, rhtyhm, resonance and noise in continental philosophy and particularly in the philosophy of Deleuze and Guattari which appeared in international academic journals. Among his most recent books available in English are <em>Atopological Trilogy: Deleuze and Guattari <\/em>(2015) and <em>Nonconceptual Negativity: Damaged Reflections on Turkey<\/em> (2019) both published by Punctum Books NYC.<\/p>\n<p>He started producing electronic\/experiential music in 2000 under the name of <strong>SIFIR<\/strong> which means\u00a0\u201czero\u201d\u00a0in Turkish. Between 2000-2005 he released three albums by Ada Music of Istanbul, the most notable of which was\u00a0<em>I am Stupid because I am Dead, I am Dead because I am Stupid<\/em> (2005), commemorating Nietzsche\u2019s philosophy and his collapse in Turin. Later on his albums, KOG (2009);\u00a0<em>I Want to be a Suicide Bomber\u00a0<\/em>(2011);\u00a0<em>Zazou and the Closets on House-Darkness<\/em>\u00a0(2013) were released by White Music Label, UK. His music also appeared in Sub Rosa\u2019s\u00a0<em>Anthology of Turkish Experimental Music 1961-2014<\/em>\u00a0in Belgium in 2016. His recent de\/compositional pieces were released by <strong>Mille Plateaux\/Force Inc.<\/strong> in <em>Ultrablack of Music<\/em> compilations in DE and by <strong>Rizosfera<\/strong> as <em>Chaos Variation VII <\/em>(with Obsolete Capitalism) in Italy and as Rough Trade Exclusive in UK in 2020. He released <strong><em>Shoedrift <\/em><\/strong>EP as a late homage to \u201cshoegaze\u201d of the 90s (<strong>Mille Plateaux<\/strong> 2021) and his last piece, <em>Not Enough Negativity<\/em> (with references to great philosopher <strong>Mark Fisher<\/strong>\u2019s thought) is coming out in September 2022 again with <strong>Mille Plateaux<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Zafer \/ SIFIR published with Rizosfera the <strong>EP Chaos Variation VII<\/strong> with <strong>Obsolete Capitalism<\/strong>, participated in the event &#8216;<strong>Rhythm, Chaos and Non-pulsed Man<\/strong>&#8216; (La Deleuziana no. 10) which in book form + Usb card investigated rhythm and styles of existence according to the philosophy of Gilles Deleuze. <strong>A new album by Zafer \/ SIFIR for Rizosfera will be released in the year 2023.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SIFIR \/ ZAFER ARACAG\u00d6K :: NEW EP &#8216;NOT ENOUGH NEGATIVITY&#8217; OUT IN SEPTEMBER 2022 FOR MILLE PLATEAUX \/ FORCE INC.
