      I know, I hate protracted introductions to lectures, or interviews... Look just get fuckign on with it.

    I was deeply saddened and traumatized by the death of my mentor and my teacher Mark Cousins. Cousins was the most outrageous, courageous, audacious and 'original' thinker of his time; but Cousins was never a 'careerist'' and remained an 'outsider'. The last time I spoke with Mark Cousins was late in 2019 at a cafe near the Architectural Association in Bedford Square where we spoke so cynically about the Avital Ronell Affair and, more importantly, the hope that Verso would publish all of Mark Cousins's Architectural Association lectures from 1994 until 2019 which I had taped 'live' at the A.A. I hope that Verso will now publish those lectures: Mark Cousins was utterly unique; so elegant, so eloquent: a genius. Cousins repeatedly expressed to me his wish to have his A.A. Lectures published.

    Brian Eno. How wonderful! Intense inequality plus intense atomisation means no room for the collective intelligence of community. How well he sums that up, especially for UK. Be careful however not to misunderstand China.

    • @JohnnyMotel99

      ~Be careful however not to misunderstand China.~ I don't believe he does misunderstand China, however his points about using SM to tackle pollution is a kind of 'benevolent dictatorship', not that China behaves entirely benevolently.

      Abd wasn't Klaus Schwab who said China would be the leader in the 'great reset?' I wasn't sure about Mr. Eno the past several years and now I know for certain he's on board with the globalist psychopaths

    Interesting talk, but dangerous to think about relinquishing your freedom to a government. The depiction of America is not correct. However, I enjoy listening to Brian’s perspective.

    • @jonesy2111
      @jonesy2111 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I used to think he was so intelligent and informed but now that I've matured and became more knowledgeable I can see all kinds of things that he is not only incorrect but glibly guilty of over simplification, I can see through alot of his assertions and mendacity.

    The way forward will not come from China but from Italy. The Renaissance 2.0 is on the way, one only needs to know where to look.

    As a Chinese, I'm quite sure pollution is definitely not the main cause of social disharmony.

    It's a fallacy to have the state be involved in the economy sector or the cultural one. The state will at some point only have a say in the rights sphere.
