Ah if only we were all still at a Uni and might form an ontological cuddle puddle. Love the electroclash score. My problem with Nuit Debourd is that the protesters who are hacking the material symbols of pre-linguistic oppression so familiar in their quotidian existence — here ATMs — probably return to ATMs of mechanismes de finance to pay for dinner. Better to physically grab a banker on lunch hour and explain how the structures of oppression are just that and why it must all reform in a non hierarchical construct. Can anarchy — not participatory democracy — be reformed as a central credit union?
heh talk to bankers, what are ya smoking out there?
riot porns just an outlet as is raging against the machine, at best one can just slow things down a bit by monkey-wrenching the gears. There are no big fixes in the works so might as well find a release or two to keep from melting down.
