Summary:
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 today’s provocateurs might pick up
the thread of those who dared to negate their contemporary world as a
whole and imagine it anew.
