50 Years of Recuperation of the Situationist International (FORuM Project Publications)

From antiglobalist activists and corporate adbusters to online hackers and guerilla street artists, the influence of the Situationist International (SI) remains visible writ large across our contemporary cultural landscape. In "50 Years of Recuperation" McKenzie Wark, the critically acclaimed author of A Hacker Manifesto, explores how our contemporary understanding of art, politics, and even reality itself has been shaped by these original culture jammers. Wark suggests not only what is still vital in the Situationist legacy but also how todaya (TM)s provocateurs might pick up the thread of those who dared to negate their contemporary world as a whole and imagine it anew.
