THE GARDEN OF PECULIARITIES
A classic of green anarchy. “ Ideology operates like a narrative that domesticates by way of its own systemic standardization. It expands like a virus, or transparent and mimetic plague, which expresses itself in trends or in name-brand identities. No one sees it, no one feels it, no one touches it, yet everyone speaks with its tongue. It strangles the mind—which is connected to a server or a mainframe—and plugs in the eyes. It reproduces itself mechanically and accumulates unsatisfied desires in an oscillating spiral. This spiral is like the pleats of an accordion or, better yet, an artificial heart sounding its own agony. The beating of this false heart will continue until the empire rearms, the government regroups, castes are revived, or until the system collapses, a victim of its own decadence. ” |
INCENDIARY TIMES (currently in hibernation)INCENDIARY TIMES is an irregular anarchist newspaper published by the bolo'bolo collective and friends. There's a real dearth of radical print media in South Africa and we're hoping to help address that in our own modest way with our independent and non-commercial project. Our newspaper is not, however, just another collection of marketing leaflets from a cultish organisation trying to recruit you into our ranks; what INCENDIARY TIMES instead aims to be is a collection of insurrectionary love letters, tied to bricks and hurled across the barricades towards the grey facade of spectacle and corporate hegemony that one day, soon, we hope to smash.If you’d like to contribute content of any kind to future editions—articles, reviews, poetry, art, letters, pressing questions or recipes for revolution—then get in touch: incendiarytimes@bolobolo.co.za |
