On this episode Dana talks to Lars Ruben, a poet from Netherlands about Paul Celan’s Goll Affair, translation, the political poems of Lars Ruben which bear witness to neglected historical details of genocide, body surveillance, and  the surrealistic ways  in which news plays out. We talk about his influences from Thomas Pynchon, Emir Kusturica, punk rock and hiphop. The Pleasure Helmet is a monthly podcast where philosophy and art  are explored by para-academics, artists, and autodidacts.
