a friend once said:
no revolution is going to be generated
out of systemic
or structural laws.

we are on our own, and what we do
we have to do for ourselves.
we are the denizens
of a strange epoch,
the ‘given’ in a surreal situation.

while knowledge of space and time has been democratized, the
modes of inhabiting them (the modes of being) are controlled
more intensely than ever before. while sharing of information
is ubiquitous, understanding and love appear empty at best – at  read more »

the Situationists' classic text on student life, better quality for zine format.

"Raw Materials for a Theory of the Young-Girl," Tiqqun, 1999-2001.

An english translation of Theorie de la Jeune-Fille recently appeared at younggirl.jottit.com.

As 1) reading long work off blogs can be somewhat unpleasant and 2) someone else seems to be serializing a fancy illustrated version of this, I felt a simply typeset version of the whole text, suitable for reading or printing, might be appreciated.

It will print into a fat 88 page booklet.

"Happiness and Magic" is a short essay by Italian theorist Giorgio Agamben, which has been formatted into a Zine. Agamben's work on biopolitics and bare life have heavily influenced Tiqqun, The Invisible Committee, Insurrectionist Anarchism, as well as wider currents of Leftist and Anti-Authoritarian academics. It is a poetic and novel way of approaching the subject shortcoming of structuring life around capitalist logic, as well as the joys of desubjectification.  read more »

The Social is a cigarette.
Rupture, in its fluidity, is fire.
Platforms, the crystallized possibility of ignition, are lighters.
Dogma is a dead lighter.
Praxis is a butane refill.

The Right to be Greedy - Theses on the Practical Necessity of Demanding Everything

This zine is simply one chapter from a larger book by a pro-situationist group called For Ourselves!. The selected chapter is a critique of morality.

The United States’ most populous state, California is the world’s eighth largest economy. The state has some of the planet’s most productive farmland and in the 1990s enjoyed an extensive real-estate boom. But intensive, industrialised agriculture has polluted much of the environment and now, with more foreclosed homes than anywhere else in the world, it is also home to a growing number of tent cities. Gifford Hartman takes us on a road trip through California’s Central Valley to witness the toxicity: of mortgages and ecosystems, houses, drugs and human relations.

Some theology for all us hell-bound bums.
