* *About the book* Following his acclaimed history of the Situationist International (SI), /The Beach Beneath the Street/, McKenzie Wark continues the story after the failures of May 1968. Charting its post-sixties legacy and putting the late work of the Situationists in a broader, deeper context, Wark locates their contemporary relevance, as digital culture opens up new possibilities of experience and new terrains of struggle. *+ More about the book. < http://www.furtherfield.org/programmes/event/authors-talk-spectacle-disinteg...
