Against this hegemony of the system, one can exalt the ruses of desire, practice revolutionary micrology of the quotidian, exalt the molecular drift or even defend cooking. This does not resolve the imperious necessity of checking the system in broad daylight. This, only terrorism can do.
J Baudrillard
I have disappeared and reappeared; I have juggled a fair few masks, gone into the depths of my underworlds, though perhaps never quite nether enough. I fear such reproaches, and since my heart is yours, let’s sit and think on it.
Humanity attempts to destroy the event, to secure against all emergence, and thus, being an improbable emergence, will destroy itself. The order of things becomes sedimented and words become obstacles which weigh down our spirits -the pastiche* of simulacra pharma-pornographically mines our feelings for views and clicks; in short, the last man’s ‘discovery’ of health and sex has not been a good one, and has only led to more self-despising through loss of spontaneity, vertigo, imagination and enigma. It is all about reversibility: ‘The American who first discovered Columbus made a bad discovery.’ (Lichtenberg)

I’m not talking about transparency in the sense that you see everything on television, but that television is watching you. It is all about reversibility, in the worst sense.
