lame irony

"Critical theorist Slavoj Žižek argues that this sort of "cynical reason" reveals how postmodern irony actually serves contemporary structures of power. He suggests that modern ideology does not work via false consciousness, where we are fooled by the fictions that support those in power. Instead, we accept and even willing participate in these fictions, even as we congratulate ourselves (usually via winking self-irony) for being able to see through them. As Žižek puts it, "even if we do not take things seriously, even if we keep an ironical distance, we are still doing them."

Now, what can we apply this to? Hm...

whoa

Watch it through. It's crazy. I think Julian showed it to me, unless it was you - it might have been you...but it might have been Julian. I don't know, I can picture both of you saying it. Anyway:

Society of the Spectacle

Think:
Facebook
Social media

Where the real world changes into simple images, the simple images become real beings and effective motivations of hypnotic behavior. The spectacle, as a tendency to make one see the world by means of various specialized mediations (it can no longer be grasped directly), naturally finds vision to be the privileged human sense which the sense of touch was for other epochs; the most abstract, the most mystifiable sense corresponds to the generalized abstraction of present-day society. But the spectacle is not identifiable with mere gazing, even combined with hearing. It is that which escapes the activity of men, that which escapes reconsideration and correction by their work. It is the opposite of dialogue. Wherever there is independent representation, the spectacle reconstitutes itself.

Hey

How do we make our page all nice-looking and stuff?

A thought

From too much love of living,
from hope and fear set free,
We thank with brief thanksgiving,
Whatever gods may be
That no man lives forever,
That dead men rise up never;
That even the weariest river
Winds somewhere safe to sea.

- Byron.

Oh just life, in a nutshell.

"Isn't it strange how life won't flow, like a river, but moves in jumps, as if it were held back by locks that are opened now and then to let it jump forwards in a kind of flood. There are these long stretches - nothing happens - each day is exactly like the other - plodding, uneventful - and then suddenly there is a crash - mighty deeds take place - momentous events - even if one doesn't know it at the time - and then life subsides again into the backwaters till the next push, the next flood?"

"Youth?...Yes, I am glad too, it is over - I never wish it back. Terrible, what it does to one - what it did to us - and one is too young to know how to cope, how to deal with that first terrible flood of life. One just goes under - it sweeps one along - and how many years and years it is before one can stand up to it, make a stand against it."

- Anita Desai, Clear Light of Day
