“We have inherited from the Whole Earth Catalog a language of individuals, tools, and communities, which we’ve translated, I think, in tech speak, into individuals, communities, and networks. I would like to see a language of institutions, resources, and negotiation take its place.”
FRED TURNER art, tech, counter cultural neoliberalism, and the adequacy of digital tools in an interview with NORA KHAN.

Christine Fenzl: LAND IN SONNE
“There’s a line in the Norm Macdonald film Dirty Work, where Chris Farley’s character (a bar regular with a bad attitude) says: “In the land of skunks, the man with half a nose is king.” While his character is, in fact, missing half his nose, the line also defines his motivations and attitudes. We believe that this philosophy can also be extended to sneakers: In the land of ever-scarcer and more visible collaborations, the humble general release is king.”
– A sneakerhead’s heartfelt ode to the general release in HIGHSNOBIETY 🤔🤔💌💌
“One might be forgiven for wondering whether such generational categories are anything but a pundit’s lazy approach to thinking about historical change. The imagined subject of “the generation” tends to be middle class, white, and liberal by default, while the hypothesis of generational identification serves to obscure the ways that our society is divided, especially by class and by race. In what sense is the life experience of a white Princeton graduate in 1995 comparable to that of an African-American Detroiter who attended community college and graduated in the same year?”

“A long process of erosion and attrition preceded the fall of the Wall. In my mind this is all tied up with the movement of the East-West Express, also known as the Moscow–Paris Express.”
Ten years ago, on the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, historian KARL SCHLÖGEL remembered its end as a series of events, shifts, and impressions – a whimper, perhaps, more than a bang:
“In my memory, it is not the fall of the Wall on November 9 that I connect with the feeling that the old days were over in 1989 – that night, as ‘crazy’ as it was, was just the verification. It was the sanctioning of what had already been decided, beforehand and elsewhere. I connect the end of the epoch with other dates, other places, other people. They do not feature in the most recent master narratives.”

Pure Shores: Thomas Lohr’s GEZEITEN
“If West once imagined himself as a religious figurehead, now, in the wake of career-threatening turbulence, he’s assumed the role of humbled disciple. At least, this is the conceit of “Jesus Is King,” West’s new album and a document of an alleged spiritual awakening. Religion has always animated West’s music, in flashes: one of his earliest hits was “Jesus Walks,” and he described his record “The Life of Pablo,” from 2016, as “a gospel album with a whole lot of cursing.” In this new era, though, Christianity is his raison d’être. Kanye the luminary has become Kanye the missionary.”

“While “sustainability” is a big buzzword in the fashion industry, it has now become so ambiguous that it’s lost its original meaning. “The problem is that no one knows what a ‘good’ value chain looks like,” says Sebastian Boger, partner and managing director at BCG and co-author of the Pulse report. “In this industry, we clearly have to differentiate between ‘less bad’ and things that make the current practices better.” More from Christopher Morency’s report on streetwear’s sustainability problem in HIGHSNOBIETY 👟👟

“Whether the Ringgold-Picasso pairing inspires consternation or praise depends largely on how we conceive of the purpose of this gallery and, by extension, the Museum itself.” – Jack McGrath on the new MoMA in FRIEZE.
“We did have slavery. Why should I get angry about Picasso?” – Faith Ringgold in 032c. Read the full interview HERE.
“What does solidarity mean in Europe today? I believe that we’re facing our moment of truth, and the truth is: in Europe, we don’t always get along as well as we like to think we do. This became clear with the Brexit vote. When I discussed Brexit with a group of parliamentarians and intellectuals from Great Britain, that’s when I grasped it: I really don’t understand them. My only explanation was that they must be crazy. Yet somehow that isn’t right either. We have held Europe together for a long time around a fiction of understanding. That’s the moment of truth: we do not understand each other at all. … There is no template for solidarity called the European Union. It’s still undefined. Now we have to talk about it again with respect to reciprocity, we have to mutually look each other in the eye and say, ‘I do not understand you.’ And then, ‘How are we supposed to move forward?’ That’s a good way to get back to Europe.”
JOACHIM BESSING spoke to sociologist HEINZ BUDE on European solidarity in 032c Issue #36. CLICK FOR THE FULL INTERVIEW.
