State of the Union/The Last Word Tony Ozuna | america | 20.05.2013 14:53
STATE OF THE UNION/THE LAST WORD
Censorship could be defined as something that happens everywhere in the world, but not in America. There thus remains the need to explain those strange phenomena that readers of American newspapers sometimes encounter. We will ask Europeans; perhaps they will recognize something ancient in them.
Fuck Mugabe!!! Spunk Seipel | africa | 20.05.2013 14:32
FUCK MUGABE!!!
"In the best dictatorial tradition, Mugabe lives holed up in his luxurious urban palace in Harare. At night, the street leading past the giant property with the high wall and thick barbed wire is closed to traffic. During the day, people are allowed to drive down this important road and past the heavily guarded house. But woe to those who stop! Or take pictures! More than a few people have ended up dead as a result."
Against Human Nature Pil and Galia Kollectiv | solutions | 15.04.2013 16:58
AGAINST HUMAN NATURE
Post-Fordist working conditions wear a mask of openness, flexibility, and individual freedom. Criticism thus finds all the more difficult to achieve its objectives when it is literally attracted by institutions. Under such conditions, is it even possible to make art that is not part of the culture industry? Just like Kenneth Goldsmith in the opening text to this issue, these two British critics ponder the opposing tactics that, instead of attacking the concept of institutions, overpower it. Perhaps even art itself is built of nothing more than inertia.
The Americanization of the Sprit Octavian Esanu | contemporartism | 25.03.2013 14:16
THE AMERICANIZATION OF THE SPRIT
Octavian Esanu looks at the acceptance and rejection of what is “American” in a non-American environment, against the backdrop of an unclear understanding of freedom and the historically growing confidence of American art, which quite possibly stands behind the seemingly universal concept of “contemporary art.” Where the colonization of the spirit through an emphasis on contemporaneity still encounters resistance, the attractiveness of American shoes perhaps presages the strongest export – packaging, boxes, frames and vehicles.
A Murder in Flatland:  The Irruption of the Real in American Abstract Art Douglas Dix | contemporartism | 13.03.2013 13:33
A MURDER IN FLATLAND: THE IRRUPTION OF THE REAL IN AMERICAN ABSTRACT ART
A nearly detective, but all archeological and art historical story about how one day the body of an attractive women was found by a river. Her name was Mary and she knew Kennedy. And Clement Greenberg. Somewhere among the complicated twists and turns of the ideological tensions of the Cold War, there may lie an answer – if not to the question of “Who is a murderer?” then at least as to how and why some realities meet and others pass each other by because – and thanks to – their origin in planes, spaces and points.
Occultures Nick Land | philosophy | 11.03.2013 16:11
OCCULTURES
"Beyond the domain of the obscure god lies the non-signifying chatter of unconscious numeric Pandemonium, where names are cryptomodules, meaningless packets of actual information, immanently productive machine-jargon."
Critique of Transcendental Miserablism Nick Land | philosophy | 11.03.2013 15:34
CRITIQUE OF TRANSCENDENTAL MISERABLISM
"Life continues, and capitalism shapes life in a way it has never been shaped before. If this isn’t something “new”, then the word “new” has been reduced to a meaningless insult. It must be reserved anew for the one and only thing that knows how to use it effectively, for the shoggoth-summoning regenerative anomalization of fate, for the unstoppable creation of a so infinite plasticity that nature collapse and dissolves before it. For the Thing. For Capitalism."
Nick Land – An Experiment in Inhumanism Robin Mackay | profile | 27.02.2013 13:40
NICK LAND – AN EXPERIMENT IN INHUMANISM
Nick Land was a British philosopher but is no longer, though he is not dead. The almost neurotic fervor with which he scratched at the scars of reality has seduced more than a few promising academics onto the path of art that offends in its originality. The texts that he has left behind are reliably revolting and boring, and impel us to castrate their categorization as “mere” literature.
