“But against the acceleration of networks and circuits, we will also look for slowness—not the nostalgic slowness of the mind, but insoluble immobility, the slower than slow: inertia and silence, inertia insoluble by effort, silence insoluble by dialogue. There is a secret here too.”
Jean Baudrillard, Fatal Strategies
“We mustn't believe we are living the realization of some evil utopia - we are living the realization of utopia, period. That is to say, its collapse into the real.”
Jean Baudrillard, Fatal Strategies
“The masses know that they know nothing and they have no desire
to know. The masses know they are powerless, and they don’t want
power. We reproach them vigorously for these signs of stupidity and
passivity. But they’re not that at all: the masses are very snobbish;
they act like Brummel and sovereignly delegate the faculty of choice
to someone else, in a sort of game of irresponsibility, ironic chal¬
lenge, sovereign lack of will, or secret ruse.”
Jean Baudrillard, Fatal Strategies
“Gaming is wonderful”
Jean Baudrillard, Fatal Strategies
