Reservoir radicalism. We were recently interviewed by Max Moorhead and Clair Gunther (of NY-based autonomist community @woodbine.nyc) on the relationship between Provo, printed matter, and the city – resulting in a 20-page article that just appeared (among many other texts, by great authors) in the second issue of ‘The Reservoir’ (a bi-annual journal published by @autonomedia, and designed by Kevin McCaughey of @bootboyzbiz). Topics we discuss include the Provo movement, the notion of ‘de-sign’, the Gnot apple (🍎), Robert Jasper Grootveld, CrimeThink Collective, the redeeming (and subversive) power of hypocrisy, Simon Vinkenoog, the Process Church of Final Judgment, the deep connection between the printing press and the city, and many other subjects. So when you come across the publication (which came out last September), do check it out!

Fleeting and permanent, serious and ridiculous, sincere and ironic, always undermining their own authority, manifestos are unstable texts in the extreme.

The form of the protest—the bizarre blood sculpture, the poems—was itself a protest against passivity, lack of imagination, and normalcy.
