[spectre] Gimme Five: McKenzie Wark

[Louise Desrenards]

Dear Friends,

During the first week of October, McKenzie Wark passing in Paris for a 
conference at the Pompidou Center (the frame being the circle " The 
conversations on the new industrial world " IRI/Centre Pompidou ) was 
hacked with his assent by Michael Borras (the video designer and curator 
from Systaime) to be published into one video clip from the serial 
subject "Gimme Five" which Borras dedicates to the online magazine 
"poptronics" ; as the title tells of the concept: choose five sites and 
say why!

On the other hand I have asked him to tell some more words on his last 
work (since the end of 2007): because the Situationist International 
review #1 was published in 1958 (June) you know, 2 issues same year, the 
second in December, while we are reaching 2008 November....

the English version)

While the virtual value as money making admit the chaos theory enter the 
society as a rule of managing the current world, such a review which 
returns to the source of the city in full overtaking of the political 
economy, of which the primitive postmodern thinker was Henri Lefebvre 
with his view from the production of space, there falls sheer;-)
