An excerpt from my book on the anti-hauntology debate hosted on @BlueLabyrinths and @xenogothic in 2021, where I talk about the electronic music of Chinese artists like 33EMYBW and Gooooose, and why hyperpop was never really anti-hauntological...

"Why must it always be a terrible end?’ asks Immanuel Kant in The End of All Things. To which the reply, the Kantian joke: because the present time is execrable."

NON: Semiotics of the End: The Backrooms
via https://t.co/L5Msfe3Hpw
The dreams of the end are over. Yet, the nightmares never end. As the comments posted below the eerie images of the Backrooms also show, many people have been dreaming about places like the Backrooms much before the original 4chan post. It is hard not to think about Carl Gustav Jung’s blood-filled dreams and visions of war, a few months before the beginning of WWI. The exception is that, today, the collective unconscious has taken the form of collective informatization.1 Nightmares have taken the form of zeros and ones.

La mia traduzione di "Extinction Internet" di Geert Lovink su Notzine #1 (@NeroOnTheory).

In times when capitalism claims its monopoly on both dystopia and utopia, the #solarpunk genre seems to offer an alternative. But is this really the best of both worlds? Or something else? The cultural critic and journalist @A_Sbordoni takes stock: https://t.co/E2o9ZKmyzw

Work on Ultrablack of Music Vol.2 started. Another collaboration of Becoming & NON
incl. Kenji Siratori, Eldrich Priest, Gary J. Shipley, Eugene Thacker, me, Akira Palais, Lain, Zafer, Stefan Paulus, Holger Schulze, Obsolete Capitalism, Alessandro Sbordoni, Giorgi Vachnadze, Alberto Ricca, Jan Heintz, Andrea Taeggi etc.
Ultrablack seems to be the sound of formlessness, as black sound it takes on a form as a something, which is also a nothing – to prevent anything from belonging to music. Black is the something that is also nothing, it has to get liquid and catastrophic, ultrablack, a nothing that cannot be adequately grasped in the precinct of music. Ultrablack is the nihilistisc abyss.

Ah, so Žižek actually read my book and cited me
