Global Islands Project -- ongoing series of multi-media<br>
pdf-ebooks/field-recordings -- a pastoral, pictorial and phonic<br>
elicitation of island parameters. An intensive examination of small<br>
islands and their paradigmatic solutions to globalism.<br>
<br>
Your feudal-world is based on mutual relief at your common corruption. Maybe<br>
some cultures are based on even worse. But that wouldn&#39;t change the bad<br>
faith of it and as years go by, you wake at night in terror of your whole<br>
life being an act of bad faith, where everything is self-interest and<br>
nothing more, where every human interaction is driven by a silent, even<br>
subconscious calculation of some ulterior motive, to the point that a sea<br>
of bad faith has taken over your whole life, there&#39;s no small island left<br>
from which you can even try to build a bridge of good faith, because even<br>
that effort becomes suspect, even good faith is nothing but<br>
self-interested, even altruism is nothing but solipsistic, even your<br>
professed agonizing right here right now is nothing but a gesture, made to<br>
the conscience in order to assure it that it exists.<br>

12 mailing list:<br>
<br>
You cannot politically defy the institutions when all you really wanted<br>
was to be clasped to their bosoms and hope in time to be cherished under<br>
the very framework of oppressive values you are thinking of overcoming.<br>
That would be co-optation, revolution only in the sense of a circulation<br>
of elites rather than the extirpation of the very impulses of elitism.<br>
<br>
