The Illuminati have always been advocates of the power of art, music, and dance to bring people together and create a sense of harmony. We believe that the drive to dance at the end of the world is a testament to the strength of our shared spirit. #Illuminati #RaveTheory #McKenzieWark #Dance #EndOfTheWorld https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/5d3njk/why-we-rave-mckenzie-wark-techno-raving-book

The uni bizarrely attempted to break the full and part-time unity with Office episode level cringe “work attestation” forms that were immediately likened to the loyalty oaths at Columbia U that spawned the founding of The New School 100 years ago. See #McKenzieWark https://www.versobooks.com/blogs/5515-we-are-the-new-school
“The New School is breaking my heart. “
#McKenzieWark on the “spectacular display of failed leadership” at the New School.

On my fourth reading of The Hacker Manifesto by #mckenziewark and I think I'm finally getting it! Absolutely smashing book!
One of my favorite media studies people, #MckenzieWark, posted this thread, and I suggested she check out the fediverse. What instances, hashtags, and other spaces would be best for her to connect with "#trans-made culture" on here?
@Tizzie #McKenzieWark is by far one of my favorite media theorists. I've found their #vectoralism frame is super helpful in understanding a bunch of stuff... :)
"The term #CultureIndustry is so obsolete. They are #CultureBanks. Investors in portfolios of intellectual property as financial instruments, with varying risk profiles. Making the shit is outsourced."

When #McKenzieWark first theorized the #WeirdGlobalMediaEvent, it was something that might happen once every few years. Now the most powerful media companies' business model requires a steady stream of WGMAs on a ~72 hour cycle.
Birdsite in particular seems inextricably tied up in that dynamix, which makes Masto, while not entirely immune, a welcome reprieve...
