kino raum 3 -- ziegelstrasse 20 -- 10119 berlin -- http://bootlab.org/raum3/ ________________________________________________________________________________ kino raum 3 program ziegelstrasse 20 10119 berlin the conception of a control bootlab.org/raum3 mechanism, giving the position of any element samstag 06.10.2001 within an open environment 21:00 - 23:30 uhr at any given instant (whether animal in a reserve rolux.org praesentiert or human in a corporation, kontrollbilder (1) as with an electronic ~ matrix ~ collar), is not necessarily one of science fiction. einfuehrung und filme félix guattari has imagined a city where one would be andy wachowski / larry able to leave one's wachowski, the matrix, usa apartment, one's street, 1999 one's neighborhood, thanks to one's (dividual) david lynch, lost highway, electronic card that raises usa 1996 a given barrier; but the card could just as easily be mark romanek, janet jackson rejected on a given day or / michael jackson - scream, between certain hours; what usa 1995 counts is not the barrier but the computer that tracks die reihe "kontrollbilder" each person's position-- beschaeftigt sich jeden licit or illicit--and ersten samstag im monat mit effects a universal repraesentationen von modulation. the socio- "kontrollgesellschaft" in technological study of the neueren science-fiction- mechanisms of control, produktionen und "kontroll= grasped at their inception, gesellschaftlichen" would have to be categorical verhaeltnissen zwischen and to describe what is bildern und personen already in the process of substitution for the dany/ebner/keller/luetgert/ disciplinary sites of mueller/schamoni enclosure, whose crisis is everywhere proclaimed. it von/mit/dank bootlab.org may be that older methods, borrowed from the former societies of sovereignty, will return to the fore, but with the necessary modifications. what counts is that we are at the beginning of something. in the prison system: the attempt to find penalties of "substitution," at least for petty crimes, and the use of electronic collars that force the convicted person to stay at home during certain hours. for the school system: continuous forms of control, and the effect on the school of perpetual training, the corresponding abandonment of all university research, the introduction of the "corporation" at all levels of schooling. for the hospital system: the new medicine "without doctor or patient" that singles out potential sick people and subjects at risk, which in no way attests to individuation--as they say-- but substitutes for the individual or numerical body the code of a "dividual" material to be controlled. in the corporate system: new ways of handling money, profits, and humans that no longer pass through the old factory form. these are very small examples, but ones that will allow for better understanding of what is meant by the crisis of the institutions, which is to say, the progressive and dispersed installation of a new system of domination. one of the most important questions will concern the ineptitude of the unions: tied to the whole of their history of struggle against the disciplines or within the spaces of enclosure, will they be able to adapt themselves or will they give way to new forms of resistance against the societies of control? can we already grasp the rough outlines of the coming forms, capable of threatening the joys of marketing? many young people strangely boast of being "motivated"; they re-request apprenticeships and permanent training. it's up to them to discover what they're being made to serve, just as their elders discovered, not without difficulty, the telos of the disciplines. the coils of a serpent are even more complex that the burrows of a molehill. ________________________________________________________________________________ raum 3 mailing list http://lists.minordomo.org/raum3
