“If the aim is to disseminate information, why all this noise? Why the distortion, the deliberately buried voices, why all the half-heard insinuations, the audio-hallucinatory fragmentation, the wired-up screams? Why not communicate clearly? Because clear communication - and all it presupposes - is the fantasm the system projects as its vindication and necessarily always-deferred goal.”

— Mark Fisher, Noise as anti-capital, K-PUNK (2018)

”This brother here, myself and all of us here were born with our hair like this and we just wear it like this because it’s natural. The reason for it, you might say, is like a new awareness among black people that their own natural appearance, physical appearance, is beautiful and it’s pleasing to them.” -Kathleen Cleaver
