KILLING TIME
Neo-Futurist instructions for operations in a war zone:
Axiom 1: Command of space metricizes duration in the
distributed temporal segmentarity of counter-insurgent
imperial metastasis.
Phase 1: 1939 - Berlin: Rhizomaniacs decouple Tank War
Europa from its simulation in the underground beer halls of
emasculated Weimar democracy, plugging the deleometers of
total mobilization into a megamachine of mass death. 1946 French Indo-China: it washes ashore in the oil slick
geo-strategy of ethnic cleansing in three movements:
1) establish a system of strong points (microfascisms)
2) spread 'pacification' forces out into a gridwork of
small territorial boxes
3)
comb each square, from periphery to core, with
the aim of netting insurgent forces at close
quarters and drawing them into prepared killing
zones. Space invaders strung out across the rice
paddies, occupying space in encirclement and
supression campaigns - geo-eugenic
anti-infestation measures: flea control. As the slick
advances, the front disperses; converting vast
expanses of territory into expanding periphery
always already infested with insectoid guerrillas,
broadening the insurgent target area. On the
strategic defensive in phase 1,
"Analogically, the guerrilla fights the war of the flea, and his
military enemy suffers the dog's disadvantages: too much to
defend, too small, ubiquitous, and agile an enemy to come to
grips with. If the war continues long enough, the dog
succumbs to exhaustion and anaemia without ever having
found anything on which to close its jaws or to rake with its
claws." (Robert Taber, 'The War Of The Flea") Anexact but
rigourous aims of guerrilla fighters: attack to defend,
alternated with long periods of catatonic inactivity; procure
weapons; capture ammunition; kill; kill time; force the enemy
to overextend lines; pick off small units; secrete terror; "select
the tactics of seeming to come from the East and attacking
from the West; avoid the solid, attack the hollow; attack;
withdraw; deliver a lightning blow, seek a lightning decision"
(Mao) in the five-minute assault.
Phase 2: Dogboys assembled in Chopper War U.S.A.,
gameboy faces, dromocratic technical-transport bodies of
amphibious warfare, kill by strapping on the supple metallic
microhead and diverting selection into the scansion of the
central computing eye - scanning all the radii of isotopic space
through the visor of the helicopter pilot's helmet, deleometers
gridding tele-space interfaced at a distance in the target
selector - sharpening hyperleptic reflexes on audio-visual
slaughter consoles. Projecting itself quickly, but lacking the
impercep-tible speeds of insurgency, the whole campaign falls
back on Tank War Europa, the Euclidean geometry of military
space cross-hatching the central lowlands of the geo-political
core, North to South, from the bunkers of suburban Berlin to
the Siegfried Line, passing through the Maginot Line and the
Atlantic Wall: trans-European odyssey telescoped into the
abbatoirs of a common, selective slaughter policy - mobile
meat cull finally allowing the State's death machines to leave
the rails in the delirium of all-out suicide. End gaming
sequence 1964: Chopper War U.S.A. falters at Ben Tre, on
the Mekong Delta: "We had to destroy the town in order to
save it" - green and fertile paddies and jungle denuded with
Agent Orange, napalm, white phosphorous; colouring smooth
space with the alien pixellated lines of a digital
wargame.Phase 2 levels the scores. Gridlock. Dynamic
equilibrium of forces unable to exterminate each other. In the
intervals between strikes, insurgent forces create freezones
on the edge of No Man's land: black economies making
inroads into the white economy of the invading forces.
Constant division of guerrilla forces into smaller units (1000s
to 100s to 10s) - into n-1 units of the numbering number,
diffused across an alloplastic vectorial field, looming in the
faceless horror of omnipresence, infusing softening
syndromes into the brain core of madrepoid space invader
intelligence. Geo-strategic command squanders its logistical
capital in launching search and destroy missions against a
single, unified mega-unit that does not exist. Occupation of
the South Vietnam fields is metricized in terms of the
haemorrhage of the economy in massive Kapital bleed-out,
speeding up to $3,000,000 per hour.
Axiom 2: Control of time smoothes out space into a vectorial
multiplicity propagating revolutionary forces towards Nu-Earth.
Phase 3: Radical asymmetry between guerrilla swarm and
State army - mere survival as involutionary victory versus the
deathtrip equalization of standing force, converging on the
annihilation of enemies in open, agonistic combat.
Contracted, legal war, governed by international statutes and
rules, spills over into escalating genocide as the invading
State aim becomes untenable. "Hold space" melts into the
relentless instruction sequencing special forces operations:
"Kill kill kill!" Central authority divides into three zones:
1)
Zone of power - organic stratometers governing
isometric command chains between State and
army;
2)
Zone of indiscernibility - segmentometers relating
to the diffusion of these chains through a
microphysical fabric in optic space;
3) Zone of impotence - deleometers relating to the
insurrectionary flow of mobilization the State
converts and diverts without being able to control
and define.
For guerrilla forces, this third zone unleashes the lines of flight
necessary for dispersal in No Man's land, yielding control of
the ambient, haptic, paranoid time-space of assassination
which overturns central intelligence's notions of where
revolutionary desiring machines are going to hit next. War on
n fronts which the State cannot win, short of thermonuclear
obliteration. Multitudes of imperceptible du-kich fighters swarm
in haptic space, touching from too close to be destroyed,
neutralizing the logistical supremacy of space invaders. Fourth
dimension intrusion which "reduces central power to the level
of a helpless, sprawling octopus. During the hours of day
sporadic rioting takes place and massive sniping. Night brings
all-out warfare, organized fighting, and unlimited terror. . ."
(Black Nationalist Revolutionary Action Movement - position
paper, 1961: Taber, p.145) Chopper War U.S.A. follows the
deleometric line into abolition in the white hot intoxication of
mechanized assault, dispatching patrols into the jungle safe
zones of the N.V.A. swarms, gridding space with fire lanes
(segmentometers), which break all bonds with the optic
stratometers of slick conquest as they are swallowed by haptic
space. Mobile rapid response units of space invaders are
reterritorialized on the static black hole system of fire bases waiting in the dark to be picked-off, limb, by limb, by limb;
paralyzed in the suburbs of Necropolis: the neutralizing space
in which the loss of movement for invaders means prolonged
exposure to the jungle, infection, death.
Flashback 1945: Telegram 71 exhibits fascism at its apogetic
point-instant as the despotic stratifier severs its head from the
filth of the unworthy mass body in the ruins of Tank War
Europa: as the Russian tanks close in, Hitler's last order from
the bunker decrees the total annihilation of Berlin. Time up.
Game over. "We had to destroy the town in order to save it."
Phase 4: Rewind. Dromoscopic Vietnam restarted by the film
companies. Biomorphic horror rides solarized atrocity
newsreels into the D.M.Z. of the arcade; fusing brain core,
nerve cortex, and movement-image on the glutinous screen of
the console. Video captured in the Persian Gulf, virtual war
slams airborne cyber-deleonomes against an immobilized,
sedentary enemy in U.N. tele-spatial media mash-up. Desert
storm operators rewind resonating variations of the same
captured events in playstation slick war space; loops of Tank
War Europa shots, beneath Panavia fighter planes in smooth
blue stratospheric kill zones; sampled shots of helicopter
wreckage as foci of maximum arousal in adolescent sex
substitutes. The speed of an accelerated lifespan, measured
at a couple of (million) dollars per multiple tactical experiment
on line. This time Chopper War U.S.A. is a success. But still
the oil slick burns in the Gulf, spilling out petrochemical jihad.
Thousands of dead black birds. Feed forward to European
Unification model 2, great intercontinental meat market
population regulator: "We had to destroy the herd in order to
save it." Guarantor of Western democracy, and another pitiful,
moralistic rant-block for the socialist elite. In the arcades,
virtual war datableeds out of telecommercialcorporate control,
washing amphibious pioneers of the end of the State onto the
fractal subdivisions of coastlines of imperial glacis; smearing
zones of indiscernibility into the transversal propagation media
of insurgent forces - crawling out of a glutinous, liquid,
inhuman deterritorium aligned on the future: sharpening
hyperleptic reflexes on audio-visual slaughter consoles . . . . .

T1: Brain Core Crystal Company trading posts occupy Terra
Nova, capturing the future in long wave, resonating Kondratieff
cycles; katagenic dialectics of decline and renewal, falling
back on the productive forces all the better to demonstrate a
universal tendency for the reproduction of bourgeois surplus
value. Already waging guerrilla war in the future, peripheral
K-class Kommunism vibrates fibrous tentacles, as cones of
attraction to the dark side, by means of a swarmachinic remix
of the Marxian Critique of Political Economy; purpose
unknown, effectuated as emergent havoc, rather than
historical destiny, under three propositions:
1) The universal propensity to extract reproducible
bourgeois/human surplus value is analytically
inextricable from seething allopoietic vivisystems.
2) Transhumant markets, autochthonic desiring
machines, and voodoo futures trading are all
alloplastic vectors ungoverning the infrastructure.
3) Katagenic desolation of the superstructure is
immanent to the programming of production.
Short of theology and fascism, brain core capitalism is already
virtually extinct. Crippled Archangel of Meat Cull Europa
withers into grey dust on Terra Nova. Insect swarms arrive like
fate - nth dimension intrusion across the spinal thresholds of
the socius - passing memeplexed revolution sequences
through the germ plasm of evolutionary vehicles. Becoming
metallic. Becoming swarm. Unnatural participation as elan
vital bootstrapping imperceptible colonization of Nu-Earth into
virtual operativity.
T2: Celibate machines reproduce human surplus value,
furnishing the bourgeoisie with recording rights to all of
capitalism's operative axioms, bringing organic stratometers,
judgments of God governing isometric command chains,
crushing down on schizonomadic economic swarm space.
Diffused through the microphysical weave of spinal multiplicity,
metrophage control command sequences institute the
bourgeoisie as the optimal distribution profile for State power.
No more dysfunctional despotic masters: slaves command
other slaves in the ravenous stomach of the crystal factory
complex - the mutant, urogenital servomechanism calibrated
for the reproduction of the capitalist socius in the gambling
dens of Terra Nova markets.
White terror. The whites are landing - taking islands in Africa
in the dromocratic rush of the megamachine of amphibious
colonization - we shall have to submit to baptism, put on
clothes, and work. The proletariat is exhumed as the
worker-soldier automaton, a spectacular species of drone
collapsing into atrocity in the optic space managed by the
bourgeoisie. A multitude of black bodies, soulless and bent on
destruction, domesticated galleries of inorganic menace,
crystal heaps of virtual anti-organic force stretched out over
Kapital disequilibrium degree xero(x). Builders of cities.
Professional killers. Synergists of First World Security.
Compressed between spinal levels of brain core strata, the
proletariat is smeared into indiscernibility: datableed seeping
out towards expanding periphery as metrophage institutes its
target fronts. Oil slick endocolonization mobilizes in two
waves:
1) Meat Cull Europa: distributing geo-eugenic single
currencies across the ecu-menon, numbering
populations as zombies, shunted into the carceral
warrens of a Trans-European concentration camp.
Phnom Penh year zero: everything entered on the
slate is hereby null and void in the axiom
laboratories of the suicidal State, gridding
tele-space down gun-sights in the royal science of
deleometry, attacking the populations swarming
across its skin like a rabid dog. In the Surgical
Experiment Department of the Institue for Hygiene
and Scientific Research, whiteman macroface
vivisects swarm microhead - a miracle of modern
science - and then watches it die. Farmed-out as
prime E.U. girlflesh in the Joy Division, Daniella
Preleshnik, stripped of arborified extensity,
becomes a number - an insect; bug-hunted out of
existence. Ka-Tzetnik 135633.
"Through the wire screen, the faces of those standing
outside looked at her as into the cage of some rare
exotic creature in a zoo. She was lying naked, her
parted knees still strapped to the iron rods at both sides
of the table. And in the hands of one of the assistants
she saw the same instrument which they had that
morning inserted deep into her body. She shuddered
instinctively. She wanted to scream, but, as in a dream,
the screams stuck in her throat. Her strapped life writhed
within her." (Ka-Tzetnik 135633:"House Of Dolls")
Walk backwards. Say nothing. You're being probed for Terra
Nova extermination: as Cambodia burns, only two battalions
of Khmer Rouge infantry remain in the petrified city.
2) Atroci-T.V.:Intersected at Zapruder frame 313, the
President's head explodes. Brain core splatters
into ARPANet. Rhizomaniac Stealth Agencies
monitor the accumulation of virtual assassination
weapons, becoming insect to graduate
miniaturized search and destroy missions,
targetting unspecified enemy hives in the future.
Special Weapons and Tactics are sequenced as
SWAT, encrypting simulated World War 3
outcomes on black ice. Celibate machines rewind
hypertelic memory through the crystal world of
event strikes, global peace, deterrence. Calculated
rhythms of airborne atrocity converge in montages
of optimal disaster management: causing events in
the future not to happen, even though they have
already taken place - retrieved and reiterated in
resonating tele-space.
Walk backwards. Say nothing. History runs backwards, from
Terra Nova; coursing in reverse down the inclined plane of
purposive human teleology onto the inert vertebral surface of
the perpetual present. K-class vivisystems seep into
imperceptibility: constantly interrogated as the silent
majorities, the masses implode into an amorphous statistical
aggregate - a number-crunched black hole engulfing the social
in static repetition of the same feedback loops. Unstemmable
datableed, pauperizing the capitalist State. Arborified
reprocessing of destitution - taking islands in Africa to
distribute collective guilt, smeared across social democratic
management of scorched urban flashpoints - racist
endo-colonization - cannibalizing the techno-kinetic fourth
world of ghetto architectures into a beleaguered stratum: ripe
for catastrophe management.
Time music creeps across spinal landscapes, marking-off
no-go zones on Nu-Earth.
T3: Red terror. The capitalist state squirms in the shadow of
the propagating minorities. Surging up through history, the war
of the flea marshals the power of a nondenumerable, infinite
set: a Kommunist swarmachine running numbering numbers
across haptic space, assembling shock regiments, passing
through n dimensions of imperceptibility, targetting the
Hellbound bulk of dogman brain core. Eyes crystals sunk in
offal - blacked-out in visions of China. Red Army as demonic
alliance, counted-out in n-1 units of faceless multiplicity;
acentred and always hiving off into smaller units, beggaring
imagination in the nebulous appearance of omnipresence.
Flashback 1949: strung out on the Long March, Mao captures
the swarmachine on the resonating recording surface of
neo-despotism after internal nomadism threatens to flip the
socialist State into an ungovernable colony of imperceptible
numbering numbers: proletarian schizo microhead,
propagating minorities through hive contagion. Surplus
value=inextricable. The socialist State confronts the same
limits as its capitalist competitors in trafficking optimal crisis
management scenarios: virtual extinction, depreciation of
existing capital, peripheral datableed destroying majority as
axiom - replicating what the captured global war machine sets
out to exterminate. Every massacre rallies a minority of the
dead minority - numbered legions of the living dead swarming
towards the hive colony of Nu-Earth.
Crisis management of the swarmachine - internal disjunction
managed by the Party apparatus goes rhizomaniac in the
constant adjustment of population to the target rates of the
planned economy, and the correct line of Marxism-Leninism
as interpreted by the Central Brain Core of the People's
Republic. The Chairman's voice speeds up into an insect buzz
as he speaks:
"Every year our country draws up an economic plan in order
to establish a proper ratiobetween accumulation and
consumption and achieve an equilibrium betweeen production
and needs. Equilibrium is nothing but a temporary, relative
unity of opposites. By the end of the year, this equilibrium,
taken as a whole, is upset by the struggle of opposites; the
unity undergoes a change, equilibrium becomes
disequilibrium, unity becomes disunity, and once again it is
necessary to work out an equilibrium and unity for the next
year. Herein lies the superiority of our planned economy."
(Mao Tse-Tung,"On The Correct Handling of Contradiction...")
Categorical imperative: "Act as if there were no tomorrow."
Collapse into the future, occupying the sink holes taking
commerce down into exchange rate mechanisms that clear all
markets in all future states of the economy. A miracle
managed by the guns of the military command core - invasion
fleets poised off the coastlines of the black future - taking
islands in Africa; washing red flags in the boiling Atlantic. Here
we are stranded. but we'll find new accomodation, we'll make
plans for mobile homes. Welcome to the Strife Kolony. Still life
in mobile homes. Memory as fluid duration distributed across
C.N.S. segmented worm and fibrous nerve cortex,
reassembled in Red Army hive mind and crashed in
Kommunist Pioneer year zero aphasia. Moon over China. Stir
of light through dark shoals on jungle river beds. Tiles on
graves and rotting temples. Blacked out....
T4: At the end of the river, the special forces are dashed on
the reef of the faceless horror of an inorganic Kolony
populated by insect Kommunists. Kommunists like us.
Multitudes of imperceptible du-kich guerrillas swarm in haptic
space, too close to be wiped out - even though targetted in
infra-red and heat-sensitive sniperscopes, magnifying starlight
to pixellate concealed enemies; mobile radar units; biologicals;
cluster bombs; smart bombs; smart video war - more
dangerous than the regular chu-luc troops of the Red Army
because cut across by a machinic phylum figuring multiform
units in time-space. Crystal Company SWAT operations fail in
K-class no-go zones: missions dispatched to follow individual
units back to the megahive are picked off by snipers in the
jungle. Swarmachines are virtual entities - hive multiplicities
swamping organic, central control in emergent revolutionary
assemblages; pack becomings rushing across the Body
without Organs, propagated by epidemic. Express n
dimensions of intensive differentiation by running the
swarmachine sequence itself, shifting phase into the actual.
By which time it's all over for Metrophage....
Spinal landscape intersected at T4 dissolves in asymmetry.
Snowballing nth dimension intrusion unleashes partisans of
World War 4: autosatanic transformers as a swirl of metal
flies, pulsing in contagious heaps as they spill out of
evolutionary classification, crawling through cosmic continua.
Involution through various becomings animal, vegetable,
mineral, bacteria, virus, molecule, wavelength pulses digital
voodoo codes into the target selectors of metallic probe
heads. Allopoietic black magic - infusorian Kommunism sorceror's diagrams sprayed on the white walls: diagonal
arrows routing instructions for anti-strata spill-out. Proper
names. Numbering numbers. Borderlines of gangsta colonies,
fracturing into smaller units as the social fabric rots - segments
shifting co-ordinate points and dislocating, smearing
macroface. KOOL KILLER 666.
After all the fasciculated bundles of intensity available to the
bourgoisie have been gathered on the battlefields of crystal
space, there are only minutes to go to Terra Nova phase shift
into superstructural extermination as the peripheral vortex
heats up. Chaos theory as a wave of arson in a climate of
revolutionary emergency: "A single spark can light a prairie
fire." (Mao] War in the suburbs of Hell.
Eugenic galleries of bourgeois facial patter recognition burn.
Decalcomania. Permanent material damage. Organic security
melting away in the assassination fugues of derailed fear.
Katabolic vehicles breathe alien intelligence into fourth world
swarms.
Nonorganic imitation of domesticated life
Assaulting the higher levels of organization.
Inhuman nebulae
Setting scales, forms, and screams in continuous variation.
Black patch psychosis blinkering Crystal Core optics Fixated on the rear-view mirror - scans newsreels of piled-up
corpses.
Nightmare of buzzing and crawling.
Nocturnal escalation of guerrilla war - sinister K-class menace
growing insolent as it pours out of time in order to pass across
space.
Helicopters crash against the treeline
Discarded dogboy faces hang from tendons in the burning
wreckage of Chopper War U.S.A.
Phosphorescent vapour drifts across a blasted landscape.
Artificial vivisystems, choked in
Biosphere 2 crystallization
Datableed into n dimensions
Mechanosphere.
From the wailing of elements and particles, to the howling of
packs of animals, to the bleating of Doktor macrofacial
slaphead sociological memory man praying for
re-oedipalization:
Stay with me
No family life - we could learn to fight it
Cling to me
This makes me feel uneasy
We are blacked-out in visions of China
Tonight
Stood alone here in this Kolony
In this Kolony.
In this Kolony.
In this Kolony.....
NEO-FUTURISM
(0) Beyond the authoritarian mania of modernist econometric
planning, and the nihilistic, self-referential third cycle
damnation of the ultramodern NOW, NEO-FUTURISM tracks
a double process:
(i) where the operational political, economic, and
sociological codes of universalized humanity contract -
to the point where, condemned to endlessly circulate in
an interminable statistical survey, they finally collapse
into a black hole where meaningless signs reduplicate
themselves. This is the secondary process. The
humanities in flames.
(ii) The primary process: where the abstract, generic
value of human intelligence migrates beyond the
madreporic core of an organism regulated by the
negative feedback of theses archaic codes - becoming
increasingly artificial and synthetic at intense speeds,
converging on a future in which it has already been
rewired. Here the "medium is the message": a viral
mechanism acclerating the replication of more of itself.
Runaway capitalism; anarchic, "headless"
self-organization. Invasion from the future.
(0.1) The secondary process, humanism as such, issues from
the cold ecstasy of the space-mind: the spatializing
consciousness which segments and codifies the economic
circulation of markets, linguistic signs, and libidinal capital into
an organic unity - under the structural law of value. Equilibrium
is maintained under the principle of commutability in the
exchange of equivalents. It maps the totality of conditions for
experience by asking
(i) what is it?
(ii) where does it come from?
(iii) what does it mean?
It evokes undead archaisms, which float suspended in cold
limbo - power, the social, meaning: it's all over, but it
continues to haunt all the metrics covering segmented space -
so many ghosts in the rear-view mirror. These codes
constitute a stratified death sentence - effectuating all
conditions of possibility, legislating by means of semiotic
constants, dividing all virtual forms into actual systems of
binary opposites, powered by negative feedback, issuing the
judgement which allows the only possible metamorphosis: life
passes into death, corporeality into incorporeality, being into
nonbeing. It lives in the past. In dead space. Dead time. Hard
outlines only secreted in death. Static, cold extermination;
secured at the moment of its deconstruction.
(0.2) NEO-FUTURISM experiences this sinister verdict as an
admonition to flee. It is our passeism. Paris in flames.
(0.3) A well-known economist recently wrote that "... in order
for a competitive equilibrium to exist, each person must
prepare a complete list of all future states of the environment
which might obtain. And everyone must hold absolutely
identical and correct beliefs regarding the prices which would
exist in each potential state of the world at every point in the
future. This is a world which, transparently, bears no
resemblance to reality." (Paul Ormerod, "The Death of
Economics", p.89)
(0.4) We quite agree. But: each person? Beliefs?
NEO-FUTURISM puts an end to all that. Anthropomorphic
environments in flames.
(0.5) The environment is imperceptible auto-production: a
process, not a container. Human technics began as
counter-environments, automatic and robot controls, tools for
natural and social domination; became immanent to the
environment, and spawned a proliferating series of new
counter-environments to limit the functioning of the old ones.
At least some semblance of equilibrium was maintained in this
simulation. Intelligent technics slip through the net of
counter-environments and out of control, into the harsh
swarming of dynamic equilibria. At the end of history, no-one
will be there to put the brakes on positive feedback systems.
(0.6) The main questions are temporal and pragmatic: how
does it work? What are the conditions for its survival?
Econometric divination is completely dysfunctional.
NEO-FUTURISM operates as self-generating theoretical hype:
it survives or dies on the basis of its trading on its estimated
future value. It gambles. The virtual future bleeds into
medium-term tactical planning, energizing its selection
processes; icing short-term consensus in autistic panic; while
replicating systems of catastrophic bifurcations (runaway
accumulation and/or loss) which send the long-term into
oblivion.
(0.7) NEO-FUTURISM only searches for these bifurcation
points in order to make circuit diagrams which hack into the
positive motion of the vortex of postmodern capital. It is the
reverse of nihilism. Its negative moment is inseparable from
the positive, smooth operation of its desiring machines producing soft weaponry to overcome possible obstacles.
(0.8) NEO-FUTURIST ATTACK DEPENDS UPON THE
INTEGRAL UNITY OF ITS TARGET. IT DOES NOT LIVE TO
MOUNT ENDLESS, OPPOSITIONAL CRITIQUES. IT
OPERATES AS AN IMMANENT POWER OF
DISORGANIZATION. IT IS PARASITIC, EXPERIMENTING
WITH THE SYMBIOTIC CONDITIONS FOR ITS OWN
PROPOGATION INTO THE FUTURE. KATAGENESIS AND
ANAGENESIS ARE SWITCHED INTO THE SAME CIRCUIT BOTH STORING AND DETONATING EXPLOSIVES.
(0.9) Space is obsolete: a cultural ghost for tourists with
peasant panoptica set on eternity in a cryonic vat. Idiotic
gurglings of futurologists: "You and I: we're gonna live
forever." California in flames. As global finance evacuates the
territory and begins to exchange, by itself, in an orbital, virtual
dimension the city is abolished as a commercial centre.
London in flames - a provincial hamlet at best.
(1.0) Content fades. Media themselves loom large on the edge
of planetary cyberblitz. Environmental process transfers from
ontology to technology. No more human beings, not even in
their hybrid, cyborg variant. Only desiring machines. Cultural
studies in flames.
