Why do humans build extraordinary things for no practical reason, against every system designed to stop them?
Why does hatred persist in every discourse despite being the antagonist to insight?
Two forces in human beings cannot be suppressed: The desire to create and the desire to resent.

The Ban on Resentment & Embers at an Exhibition is a two part philosophical work examining the nature of human resentment and artistic drive.
The Ban on Resentment follows the first and introduces 'dialectic resentment', the idea that when properly directed, your resentment of a rival thinker is more useful for insight than any attempt to repress and reason past it.
Embers at an Exhibition follows the second through Wikipedia editors, SCP foundation, Piracy communities and Shostakovich. This book asks what the human will to create reveals about freedom, constraint and what makes existence worth inhabiting. And why the same unstoppable drive that creates art also makes genuine discourse impossible.

Some things cannot be repressed. Resentment is one. The desire to make art is another.

WHO THIS IS FOR
For anyone who has ever built something nobody asked for, or felt that discussion to gain mutual insight was impossible.
For readers of Camus, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche and Mark Fisher.
For readers interest in the philosophy of aesthetics, phenomenology, epistemology, and culture.
