  • Avanessian – Xenoarchitecture (Draft) 1 Introduction Armen Avanessian
    avanessian – xenoarchitecture (draft) Introduction Armen Avanessian “Man’s desire is the desire of the Other,” Lacan, Seminar XI, p. 235 Following Lacan’s infamous dictum, according to which desire is defined as the desire of the Other, we could ask ourselves what a correlate methodology would look like for the humanities (or should we say “the inhumanities”?). Obviously, the structure of the phrase is ambiguous, or even tautological if taken as a predicative proposition. Instead, I propose to read it as a speculative proposition: we do not simply desire what the other has or hasn’t got, but we desire the state of being an Other, an othering, becoming a stranger to oneself and others—literally alienating them as well as “ourselves.” A desire for the xeno? This transformation has at least three central aspects: alienation (the negative mirroring of a given reality), negation (the construction of an asymmetry that initiates an annihilation of the positively given), and a recursion of alienation and negation through speculation.1 It is a poietic qua productive and creative transformation in the sense that it increases the scope of navigation and liberation by means of manipulation. Together with others, I have thought, experimented, and written a lot about questions of othering and “matching” experimental settings2 for the production of knowledge, tactical spaces in the sense of Michel de Certeau, xeno-spaces that are defined by “a calculated action determined by the absence of a proper locus. No delimitation of an exteriority, then, provides it with the condition necessary for autonomy. The space of a tactic is the space of the Other.

  • The Regulation of the Subject by the Technology of Time Maxwell Kennel [1]
    Rhizomes: Cultural Studies in Emerging Knowledge: Issue 34 (2018) The Regulation of the Subject by the Technology of Time Maxwell Kennel [1] Abstract: Beginning from the entangled categories of the human and the technological, this exploration surveys thinkers who concern themselves with problems of technology and time, seeking to examine how the confluence of technology and time regulate and condition the formation of subjectivity. Drawing on Bernard Stiegler's work in Technics and Time, Augustine's Confessions, and the myth of Prometheus, the following draws out the technological character of time and makes suggestions about how to reconceptualize these different temporalizing technologies after the critique of capitalism. Surely technology, in its ever-changing form and forms, is a pharmakon that has been with us from the start. Regardless of whether we speak of technology or technologies or the broader field of techne (a practice or craft), it remains that the term ‘technology’ refers to something that, like a double-edged sword, helps us and harms us, something that we use and that uses us, and something that is at once politically charged (often subtly oriented toward particular interests and ends with particular benefactors), yet ambivalent, taking different sides at different times (and therefore available for us to use as means for our own ends).[2] Although it is at our disposal and supposedly outside of ourselves, some have argued that technology is not in fact something extra that is added onto our human nature and experience, but instead something inextricably related to both humanity and history, and indeed something that challenges the legitimacy of these categories.

  • Digital Deities in Cyberspace
    STATEMENT DC-228 TECHNOSHAMANISM: Digital Deities in Cyberspace by Douglas Groothuis Summary Spiritual explorers are increasingly looking to cyberspace to meet the needs of the soul. Many neopagans, occultists, and New Agers deem the technologies of cyberspace as fitting media for their magical experiments and rituals and view the Internet as a mystical plane of being. For some in this movement, which has roots in the counterculture of the sixties, both hallucinogenic drugs and computers help to demonstrate that reality is strictly a matter of our own perception and therefore can be manipulated and even created. However, this enthusiasm for the mystical potential of human technology is misplaced, illogical, and spiritually dangerous. It vainly attempts to build a spiritual reality on the faulty foundation of silicon, instead of on Jesus Christ. Cyberspace is the hot contemporary term for computer -mediated communication, the burgeoning new world of e - mail, databases, virtual reality, word-processing, computer games, and a raft of culture-shaping, digital technologies. The backbone of cyberspace is the Internet, an international computer system linking individual computers through phone lines. Being the incorrigibly spiritual creatures that humans made in God’s image are, many people are attempting to use cyberspace to feed and stretch the soul. A new movement is forming that views cyberspace as a sacred realm for the expansion of consciousness. Working from neopagan, occult, and New Age assumptions, te chnoshamans claim they are the wired wizards of the digital world (shamanism and technoshamanism will be defined in detail later). As this strange phenomenon unfolds, Christians need to address it theologically and biblically if we are to reach today’s technological culture effectively with the message of Jesus Christ.

  • Karl Marx and Poetic Form in the Communist Manifesto
    FILOZOFIA ___________________________________________________________________________Roč. 71, 2016, č. 4 EPIC OR TRAGEDY? KARL MARX AND POETIC FORM IN THE COMMUNIST MANIFESTO JASON BARKER, Department of British and American Language and Culture, Kyung Hee University, South Korea BARKER, J.: Epic or Tragedy? Karl Marx and Poetic Form in The Communist Mani- festo FILOZOFIA 71, 2016, No. 4, pp. 316-327 Although The Communist Manifesto of 1848 was clearly not intended as a work of poetry, this article considers the merits of reading it according to the aesthetic criteria of epic poetry and of tragedy respectively. Following a brief treatment of the role of poetry in Karl Marx’s evolution as a philosopher and critic, the article then specu- lates that the identification of certain poetic themes in the text can aid our under- standing of the Manifesto’s political meaning, particularly in light of the “dialectical Prometheanism” that played such a defining role in Marx’s intellectual and political universe. Keywords: Dialectics − Epic − Odyssey − Prometheus − Prometheanism − Marx Introduction: Prometheus Bound and Unbound. Karl Marx’s favorite poet was Aeschylus and many personal episodes suggest the former’s incarnation as a modern Prometheus. In March 1843 the Rheinische Zeitung – which at the time was one of the largest subscription newspapers in Germany – was suppressed by the Prussian authorities and Marx resigned as its editor. A political cartoon of the period, now famous, was pub- lished depicting Marx bound to a printing press with a Prussian eagle biting out his liver. The final issue of the Rheinische Zeitung carried the following short poem: Our mast blew down, but we were not affrighted, The angry gods could never make us bend.

  • Sonic, Infrasonic, and Ultrasonic Frequencies
    SONIC, INFRASONIC, AND ULTRASONIC FREQUENCIES: The Utilisation of Waveforms as Weapons, Apparatus for Psychological Manipulation, and as Instruments of Physiological Influence by Industrial, Entertainment, and Military Organisations. TOBY HEYS A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Liverpool John Moores University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy March 2011 1 ABSTRACT This study is a trans-disciplinary and trans-historical investigation into civilian and battlefield contexts in which speaker systems have been utilised by the military-industrial and military-entertainment complexes to apply pressure to mass social groupings and the individuated body. Drawing on authors such as historian/sociologist Michel Foucault, economist Jacques Attali, philosopher Michel Serres, political geographer/urban planner Edward Soja, musician/sonic theorist Steve Goodman, and cultural theorist/urbanist Paul Virilio, this study engages a wide range of texts to orchestrate its arguments. Conducting new strains of viral theory that resonate with architectural, neurological, and political significance, this research provides new and original analysis about the composition of waveformed geography. Ultimately, this study listens to the ways in which the past and current utilisation of sonic, infrasonic, and ultrasonic frequencies as weapons, apparatus for psychological manipulation, and instruments of physiological influence, by industrial, civilian, entertainment, and military organisations, predict future techniques of socio­ spatialised organisation. In chapter one it is argued that since the inception of wired radio speaker systems into U.S. industrial factories in 1922, the development of sonic strategies based primarily on the scoring of architectonic spatiality, cycles of repetition, and the enveloping dynamics of surround sound can be traced to the sonic torture occurring in Guantanamo Bay during the first decade of the twenty-first century.

We connect researchers, thinkers and practitioners to an international network of people changing politics.Our ideas regularly influence government policy, but we also work with companies, NGOs, colleges and professional bodies. Demos knowledge is organised around five themes, which combine to create new perspectives.The themes are democracy, learning, enterprise, quality of life and global change. But we also understand that thinking by itself is not enough. Demos has helped to initiate a number of practical projects which are delivering real social benefit through the redesign of public services. For Demos, the process is as important as the final product. We bring together people from a wide range of backgrounds to cross-fertilise ideas and experience. By working with Demos, our partners help us to develop sharper insight into the way ideas shape society. www.demos.co.uk © Douglas Rushkoff 2003 Open access. Some rights reserved.

While the entire time period of modernity can be seen as occupied with the problematics of form, there has nevertheless been a steady critical distanciation from such concerns over the last few decades. Looking at recent developments in thinking about form, we can determine a particular schema: on the one hand central topoi such as dissolution, opening and break demonstrate the residue of a revolutionary formal rhetoric; on the other hand a negatively inflected understanding of form has been projected as a synonym for paralysed social, political and artistic circum- stances. For numerous reasons, we should object to such overly hasty disavowals of form and instead attempt to examine the seemingly old-fashioned concept of ‘form’ once again in view of contemporary aesthetic reflections. A first requirement is to object to the conception of form as ‘paralysed’, a notion which we can clearly see belied in concepts such as Documenta XII’s ‘migration of form’ (wherein the particular formal meaning of individual artworks was deprioritized in favour of new formal configu- rations created at a curatorial level).

  • Aesthetic Temporalities Today Present, Presentness, Re-Presentation
    From: Gabriele Genge, Ludger Schwarte, Angela Stercken (eds.) Aesthetic Temporalities Today Present, Presentness, Re-Presentation September 2020, 278 p., pb., 33 B&W-ill., 44 col.-ill. 40,00 € (DE), 978-3-8376-5462-2 E-Book: PDF: 39,99 € (DE), ISBN 978-3-8394-5462-6 This volume is dedicated to the interrelation between temporality and representation. It presumes that time cannot be conceived of as an abstract chronometric order, but that it is referring to materiality, being measured, represented, expressed, recognized, experienced and evaluated, and therefore is always closely related to cultural contexts of perception and evaluation. The contributions from various disciplines are dedicated to the present and its plural condi- tions and meanings. They provide insights into the state of research with special emphasis on the global present as well as on art and aesthetics from the 18th century until today. The anthology includes contributions by Mieke Bal, Stefan Binder, Maximilian Bergengruen, Iris Därmann, Gabriele Genge, Boris Roman Gibhardt, Boris Groys, Maria Muhle, Johannes F. Lehmann, Nkiru Nzegwu, Francesca Raimondi, Christine Ross, Ludger Schwarte, Angela Stercken, Samuel Strehle, Timm Trausch, Patrick Stoffel, and Christina Wessely. Gabriele Genge is a professor for Modern and Contemporary art history and art theory at the University Duisburg-Essen. Her recent research covers particularly transcultural and post- colonial areas of the discipline with a specific focus on French Colonialism and African and African-American image theory, knowledge systems and epistemology as well as migratory issues in Art History. She supervised the DFG research project »The Anachronic and the Present: Aesthetic Perception and Artistic Concepts of Temporality in the Black Atlantic.« Ludger Schwarte is a professor of philosophy at the Kunstakademie Duesseldorf.
