[photos] #1 Nuit-Sujet: ?D?gage!? ? Article ? OWNI, Digital Journalism Si vous n'étiez pas IRL dans les studios de Radio Nova pour cette #nuitsujet de folie, voici un aperçu des coulisses de l'émission en croquis et photographies. Enjoy /-) Deux paires d’yeux à l’affût Ce ne fut pas facile pour tout le monde, cette #nuitsujet du mardi 22 mars… Il y avait ceux, nombreux, qui assistaient à l’événement organisé par OWNI et Radio Nova, participant activement en descendant le bar généreusement installé dans un grand jardin synthétique, sous la verrière. En revanche, hors de question pour Ophelia et t0ad, respectivement photographe et dessinateur officiels de la soirée, de se perdre dans les étoiles de la nuit des révolutions colorées. Et c’est avec fierté que nous pouvons vous dire que nos imagiers en chef ont parfaitement accompli leur mission, comme en témoigne cette sélection. Quand à ceux qui étaient là, ils regarderont sans doute avec nostalgie ce diaporama dans quelques années : le premier bébé OWNI-NOVA est né par une très belle nuit de printemps /-)
SEMIOTEXT(E) Le FBI a de l'humour [2] Newly released FBI presentations show the flawed and misleading information the government is using to train agents to identify and investigate “domestic terrorist” groups such as “black separatists,” anarchists, animal rights activists, and environmentalists. Among the more troubling portions of the training materials are warnings of activists using the Freedom of Information Act, engaging in non-violent civil disobedience, and gathering in coffee shops. The domestic terrorism training materials were obtained through the Freedom of Information Act by the ACLU. They offer additional insight into a disturbing pattern of FBI activity misrepresenting political activists as “terrorists” and manufacturing “domestic terrorism threats” where none exist, akin to the notorious COINTELPRO program of J. Edgar Hoover. Anarchists Are “Criminals Seeking an Ideology” In presentations on “Anarchist Extremism,” the FBI warns: Animal rights / environmental extremism

Situationism explained! and its affect on punk and pop culture Just who and what were the situationists and what was their influence on punk? Amy Britton investigates... “Ha Ha you think its funny/ turning rebellion into money?” The above words may be from the Clash, but like so much challenging punk rhetoric, it could so easily have come from the writings of the influential Situationist International. The influence of Situationism on popular culture, particularly on the punk music of the mid to late 1970's, is undeniable. Brigandage has summarised one of the central theories of Situationism rather well here, but what more is there to it? The Situationist International were founded in 1957, but they will always be best associated with 1968, the year of Paris famous wildcat strikes and riots, and operated until 1972. They believed that advanced capitalism bred dissatisfaction and thus human desire needed to be fulfilled by finding alternatives to capitalist society. Situationism was not born overnight out of thin air. No, it was not.
Running Along the Disaster: A Conversation with Franco “Bifo” Berardi LaborinArt Önder Özengi & Pelin Tan (LaborinArt): You wanted to speak about the European crisis, especially its effect on the Mediterranean, the Near East, and the Middle East. What does the collapse of social welfare mean for these territories and countries? Franco “Bifo” Berardi (FBB): After May 25, we must be able to say that the “European experiment” is over. The financial system has pushed the EU into the abyss, provoking the resurgence of French nationalism: the EU is now a dead man walking. Istubalz, Untitled, 2014. LiA: Europe is heterogeneously filled with migrant workers and refugee labor economies. FBB: In general, European politics is now polarized between financial capitalism and the resurgence of nationalism. Society has been crushed, precarized, impoverished. Hewsel, Diyarbakır, March 2014. LiA: Are there new forms of resistance coming out of these new movements? FBB: Resistance is futile, as the mutation is transforming everything in the deep fabric of subjectivity.
IRI - Institut de recherche et d?innovation du centre pompidou, Accueil Consigli per riconoscere la destra sotto qualunque maschera | Giap [Un montaggio di cose scritte (non solo da noi WM) in diversi post e interviste, utile a riprendere e mostrare il filo della questione. Prendetelo come il nostro contributo alla fine della campagna elettorale più brutta e angosciante dal 1946 a oggi. I link alle fonti sono nei “cancelletti”. # Le categorie di «destra» e «sinistra», nate durante la Rivoluzione francese, furono date per morte già sotto il Direttorio, nel periodo 1795-1799. La divisione destra-sinistra ha basi cognitive profonde, se ne occupano anche le neuroscienze. Tagliando con l’accetta, «di sinistra» è chi pensa che la società sia costitutivamente divisa, perché al suo interno giocano sempre interessi contrapposti, prodotti da contraddizioni intrinseche. Non c’è dubbio che nell’Italia di oggi il discorso egemone, anche tra persone che si pensano e dichiarano di sinistra, sia quello di destra. Dietro questo punto di vista, che è molto diffuso, c’è una buona dose di mistificazione. Osserva Salvemini:
