[NetBehaviour] New book: "Political Cyberformance: The Etheatre Project" by Christina Papagiannouli

[helen varley jamieson]

hi everyone,

i'd like to draw your attention to a new book about cyberformance that
has just been published.

"Political Cyberformance: The Etheatre Project" by Christina
Papagiannouli is based on her PhD which investigates the application of
Brecht's theatre methodologies to political cyberformance. As well as an
in-depth analysis of her own cyberformance work, examples of a range of
other cyberformance works give a good historical context from the Hamnet
Players to recent experiments by British theatre companies, and she
draws conclusions that have broader digital media/culture application.
It's an important addition to the growing body of literature around
cyberformance, networked performance and the wider field of digital
performance and internet culture.

you can order the book here:
https://www.palgrave.com/us/book/9781137577030 (it's an academic
publication, so is unfortunately quite expensive; but if you're working
in the field of theatre/performing arts, media, internet culture,
politics, etc. then it is definitely worth checking out, & hopefully
university libraries will purchase it).

They also  quote Lenin:

"Socialism is inconceivable without large-scale capitalist engineering
based on the latest discoveries of modern science. [...]"

and say that:

"5. Accelerationists want to unleash latent productive forces. In this
project, the material platform of neoliberalism does not need to be
destroyed. It needs to be repurposed towards common ends. The existing
infrastructure is not a capitalist stage to be smashed, but a
springboard to launch towards post-capitalism."

The gross scientific, infrastructural and technological production that
has not been prevented under current-phase capitalism.

All to be "repurposed towards common ends" rather than continuing to
reproduce capitalism.

I can easily see a socialist objection that these forms are the result
of distorted social relations and that post-capitalist production would
take very different forms without those distortions. But these are
resources that could be used to *get* there.

Yes, with the numbers long enough to represent programs. :-)

(Or at least their account balances).

[NetBehaviour] More Accelerationist Links

[Rob Myers]

http://www.reinventinghorizons.org/?p=346

"The new realist and materialist philosophy and the new political theory
which it explicitly inspired, assert that reality can be known and that
change is possible. Rather than spell out here what this entails in the
various currents of thought that range from New Materialism via
Speculative Realism to Accelerationism, I would like to look at the
discursive framework and background information that have led to their
engagement with the scientific and (financial-) economic phenomena that
characterize the early twenty-first century. Yet these phenomena are
largely ignored in the everyday academic life of the humanities, marked
for decades now by a conservative philologism and a politically
motivated, yet nonetheless vague and inert theoretical relativism—the
legacy of ’68. In its various guises..."

"What is wrong with these often repeated criticisms is that they measure
Accelerationism with a historical stick inherited from the 20th century.
They miss its philosophical basis rooted in the way a group of thinkers,
defined under the umbrella term of speculative realism, broke with
dominant philosophical norms in the past decade and paved the way for
the development of what by now should be properly called Left
Accelerationism (#LA)."


http://tripleampersand.org/speculative-realism-accelerationism-and-the-in-between/

"...the philosophical, political, and anthropological accounts of why
and how the academic mainstream tries to reject, suppress and at the
same time, recuperate the discourse of accelerationism, and what actions
or inactions by those involved in the discourse contribute to the
success or failure of these strategies..."


http://www.ultra-com.org/project/swoosh/

"Essentially, the happy accelerationist is a health goth minus the goth,
envisioning a sleek future without the ambiguous, dark undertones of
hyper-real dystopia—the swoosh is merely a fragment of our own bright
inheritance, glimpsed from a distance. In the meantime, all we need to
do is accelerate the very dynamics of automation currently underway,
pairing them with social programs like universal basic income in order
to soften the blow of labor redundancy and prefigure the cybernetic
socialism of the future. The accelerationists at least avoid the cheap
optimism of the Silicon Valley douchebag."


http://deontologistics.tumblr.com/post/91953882443/so-accelerationism-whats-all-that-about

"I will point out an important symmetry between the left-accelerationist
views of those like myself, and what are increasingly being referred to
as the 'right-accelerationist’ views of those like Land. We agree on
this much: modernity and capitalism are ultimately incompatible. We
disagree on which one should/will go..."


https://blog.urbanomic.com/cyclon/archives/2012/11/abducting_the_o.html

"...acceleration as a vector of epistemic mediation or global navigation
of concept-spaces which is basically operates as an alternative to
ultra-normative approaches to epistemology. A form of metisocratic
production of knowledge and manipulative abductive inference. [...] Also
at the same time, warning against metaphysically inflating the gestural
constitution of acceleration as a mode of epistemic mediation into a
vapid form of enactivism."
