Surplus // Jan 11, 2012“Necessity is always and everywhere just necessity. That humans fuck and eat and suffer and die is the eternal preoccupation of the aphorists. That something over and above necessity emerges out of collective human endeavour produces not just history, but the production of history as a representation. Bataille: ‘The history of life on earth is mainly the effect of wild exuberance, the dominant event is the development of luxury, the production of increasingly burdensome forms of life.’ ” - [300], A Hacker Manifesto, by McKenzie Wark

Nature // Jan 10, 2012“It’s the subject matter that counts. I’m interested in revealing the subject in a new way to intensify it. A photo is able to capture a moment that people can’t always see. Wanting to see more makes you grow as a person and growing makes you want to show more of life around you. In each exploration or concern for the subject, I continue in the area for a great length of time, sometimes a couple of years. Working this way has been the result of my doing the photo series or groups. Many things I can’t return to and many things I return to come out better.” - Harry Callahan
Representation // Jan 05, 2012“All representation is false. A likeness differs of necessity from what it represents. If it did not, it would be what it represents, and thus not a representation. The only truly false representation is the belief in the possibility of true representation.” -[208], A Hacker Manifesto, by McKenzie Wark
30 // Jan 05, 2012Happy late birthday, a whole new decade.
History // Jan 05, 2012“History today still designates only the set of conditions, however recent they may be, from which one turns away in order to become.” - [091], A Hacker Manifesto, by McKenzie Wark
