Writing an analytical essay on Black Dresses' embodiment of contrast on 'Peaceful as Hell' for my masters and the discussions on accelerationism came in very handy! Thanks!
It's amazing that this is released when Rebecca Black drops the music video for arguably a hyperpop remix of her song Friday made by 3oh3 which is clearly nostalgia for the early 2010's /late 2000's (hauntology)
good look! there is no argument that this is 110% hyperpop. She is pretty directly referencing Charlie XCX's video for Vroom Vroom (prod Sophie). The song/video is more than simply hauntological recurrence though because it is self referential to something that she lived the consequences of (being an early generation viral meme as a young teenager). For us, all we see is the final product but for her, she has had to try and make sense of what that kind of celebrity means to her (her identity). We can't really say for sure the impact her song Friday had on the whole genre but it is certainly >0. Hyperpop is an expression of the idea that celebrity and spectacle is synthetic but the creative force behind it all comes from a meaningful, organic place.
@@gustavttt4148 I'm Zombie'ing this comment but the game is packed with it. There's an entire side-quest line around building communism despite the inevitable failure of any such actions. The locale is also seemingly conceptually fueled by some kind of physical manifestation of hauntings and the past
Was the festival influenced at all by any other similar artistic/new-media live performances? It's clear that the PC music rendition has pushed the boundaries to a new precedent in elasticity of the art-form, but I recall a recording of a London concert in 2018 or 2019 area, for a return to the stage of a Richard David James, better known as AFX/Aphex Twin, in which livestreams of randomly chosen audience members were projected above the stage using an independent VJ artist who was doing impromptu modulations tied to the tracks being played.
I'm getting triggered by the host misunderstanding of the tendency of the organic composition of capital to rise and the rate of profit to fall with technological unemployment.

You are wlecome!
Omg I'd absolutely adore to read that
The vaporwave PC comparison is interesting. I think another thing to look at is sampling/asset flipping in vaporwave vs synthesis in PC.
They both definitely draw on y2k aesthetics too

This was great. I hope you guys analyse Disco Elysium at some point, because it certainly seems to be engaging in an immanent critique of hauntology.
can you elaborate more on this? how disco elysium engages in criticism of hauntology?

Loved the episode but the way the guests were introduced I didn't know whose voice was whose
Anton speaks first!
@@billiecashmore I see, thank you!!
What's the article they're talking about at 43:20?
Not sure why I can't link to it here. It's on my blog which you'll find the link for on my twitter profile (@de_leuzer).
Just posted it in the show notes
Oh and the article at 21:53 ? Can't find 'explosion of identity' anywhere
I think Adam may have paraphrased me there. But it's an accurate paraphrase!

Yup. Beneath the undulations of avant-gardism capital is being accumulated and civilization is making itself more inevitable.
can you elaborate?
c:
precouperated completely unsubversive most typical pop music poorly masquerading as avant garde sorry 2 the gecs but im different
Yep here’s your (subversion product)™️ for consumption.
