>
> The subtle and not so subtle domination by market interests of 
> cultural production and dialogue denies us all access to a wide 
> spectrum of creative expression, especially those that engage in 
> subjects that conflict with the agendas of those in power. Agit Disco 
> by Stefan Szczelkun published by Mute in 2012, combats this 
> contemporary trend by focusing on music, politics, DIY culture, and 
> freedom of expression. In doing so he starts to redress the lack of 
> representation across the board for those in grass roots culture and 
> working class lives, whose freedoms to have a voice in society are so 
> commonly restricted.
>
> “Agit Disco offers a breath of fresh air, in the fug of the developing 
> marketisation of everything. It presents grounded examples of 
> difference that contrast with the dominating view of entertainment 
> systems. It features 23 playlists put forward by 23 different writers, 
> artist and activists. It began as a set of mixed CDs and images, each 
> chapter includes annotations and illustrations. Its contributors are 
> Sian Addicott, Louise Carolin, Peter Conlin, Mel Croucher, Martin 
> Dixon, John Eden, Sarah Falloon, Simon Ford, Peter Haining, Stewart 
> Home, Tom Jennings, DJ Krautpleaser, Roger McKinley, Micheline Mason, 
> Tracey Moberly, Luca Paci, Room 13 – Lochyside Scotland, Howard 
> Slater, Johnny Spencer, Stefan Szczelkun, Andy T, Neil Transpontine, 
> and Tom Vague.”
>
> Stefan Szczelkun is an artist and author interested in culture and 
> democracy. In the early Seventies he was fortunate to be part of the 
> Scratch Orchestra and has since been involved with a series of artists 
> collectives. His doctoral research into the Exploding Cinema 
> collective was completed at the RCA in 2002. Recently his 
> collaborative project Agit Disco was published as a Mute book in 2012. 
> He has been on the Mute magazine editorial board since 2009, and 
> currently working on photographic and performance projects.
