Zero Comment” by Geert Lovink , director of the Institute of Network Culture at the Polytechnic University of Amsterdam, collects 3 essays attributable to the trend of critical network theory. I found his writing not very fluid and his speeches fragmentary, but even though I don't share his thoughts regarding the essay “Blogging: the nihilistic impulse” it is worth submitting it to you to think about it together. Immagine di Zero comments According to Lovink "cynicism is not a character trait of the blogger but a techno-social condition (...) the cynicism of the network is constituted by cold enlightenment, a post-political condition" the blogger confesses himself (in Foucault's meaning) through the blog, wants to tell (his) truth and free himself, "a truth that has now become a question mark, an amateur project".
We find ourselves faced with a "complete Brazil Phone Number nihilism" as understood by Vattimo, that is, not as an absence of meaning but as a plurality of meanings..."there are no moral absolutes or infallible natural laws and the "truth" is inevitably subjective". Often even alluding to a link between blogs and fundamentalism, he states that "blogs express fear, insecurity and personal disillusionments, anxieties in search of complicity. PXxxion is rarely found in it (except for the act of blogging itself).” Furthermore, the tendency to skim over topics, "to point to an article without delving into it and offer a real opinion, except to say that it is worth being quoted, is a widespread and foundational practice of blogging". In short, bloggers are only interested in themselves and success metrics, "they create archipelagos of internal links, but these are very weak links".
Burn after reading “, the new black comedy by the Coen Brothers will open the 65th Venice International Film Festival on August 27th and will hopefully arrive in our theaters at the beginning of September. In the meantime, enjoy the red band trailer ( downloadable in high definition here ): Burn After Reading - Red Band Trailer Joel Coen: “If you want to call it a comedy I wouldn't protest. It's sort of about the CIA, the culture of physical fitness and internet dating.”After the brilliant video “ Buddy Holly ” which saw them catapulted into Happy Days , Weezer return with “Pork and Beans” which brings in the protagonists of this first YouTube era. To be enjoyed and studied as an example of convergent culture
