[spectre] Re: 'COMPASSIONATE SLAVERY' - a spoof?

[Andreas Broeckmann]

hey jaromil,

i think that many, many flowers should be allowed to blossom in the 
pastures of our networks. and i think it is interesting to see that 
there is no natural consensus about the reading and the evaluation of 
critical artistic practice. we had a discussion on the german 
rohrpost recently about the relevance of copyright and remuneration 
systems because there was a letter by a pro-copyright group of 
writers posted to the list. for me it is important that william's 
failure, or unwillingness, to see the dark humour in the 'slavery' 
action by the yesmen is a valid reaction, too. remember that the 
syndicate had room for people like tisma, and antiorp, and everyone 
else. we can also not expect that everyone who is on the spectre list 
today is aware of 10 or so years of rtmark 'oeuvres'. it feels 
sisyphean, but then that's life. and reminds us of the beauty of 
repetition.

regards,
-a
