In your first year, critical theory course, it’s all about learning how to operate academically. Look at this article on Aristotle’s notions of ethics. The emphasis on “active” knowledge, the opposite of being told what to do, is important.

To be discussed.

----------------

Organised by John Douglas Millar, David Musgrave, Luke Skrebowski, Natasha Soobramanien and Luke Williams.

  Raven Row plays host for six weeks to a series of public events that mine the contested space between contemporary literature and art.

  Taking this space as a starting point, the participants – including leading writers, visual and performance artists – reflect on the possible overlaps, parallels, tangents and interferences between some of today’s most adventurous forms of writing and art making. The variety of formats reflects the diversity of the contributors, spanning readings, performances, panel discussions and publishing experiments.

  A companion display entitled Marginalia with artworks by Eleanor Antin, Isidore Isou, John Murphy and Philippe Thomas, curated by Antony Hudek, will be on view during events and upon request. 

  At each event, the pop-up bookshop Luminous Books will present a selection of titles written by and related to the speakers in Plastic Words. For the final event in the series, Luminous Books will join forces with print-on-demand publishers Publication Studio for its first London appearance.

  All events are free. Except for the opening event, reservations are strongly encouraged. Please click on the links to the events for more information.

Virno and the three spheres

The Virno reading from last week is great. Hope you all read it in its entirety, if not.. go back and give it some time.

"How does one measure the skill of a priest, or of a journalist, or of someone in public relations? These people neither produce from scratch, nor transform. They are neither primary nor secondary. Tertiary is what they are and what's more, I would dare say [...] even four times removed.They are nei­ ther instruments of production, nor drive belts of transmission. They are a lubricant, at the most pure Vaseline. "

Virno, Grammar of the Multitudes.
