The Coming Insurrection

Nothing will change without a revolution.

The Coming Insurrection

The instability of meaning within the society of the spectacle is such that a statement can contain two opposing messages simultaneously. In the overdetermined world of media representation, condemnation and commendation can be indistinguishable from one another.

An Insurrection

A revolution is not a dinner party.

1775

They tell us, sir, that we are weak; unable to cope with so formidable an adversary. But when shall we be stronger? Will it be the next week, or the next year? Will it be when we are totally disarmed, and when a British guard shall be stationed in every house? Shall we gather strength by irresolution and inaction?

Revolutionary Spirit

"Young people in the West are pissed off as they stare into an increasingly empty and precarious future ..."

Revolutionary Spirit

In May 1968, the Situationist-inspired Paris riots set off a chain reaction of refusal against consumer capitalism.

We are a global network of culture jammers and creatives working to change the way information flows, the way corporations wield power, and the way meaning is produced in our society.
