How to Wind Up
the Tech Team Maintaining Your Critical Theory

The home page
is all nice and Gilles De Bourgeois-smooth, but
the moment I click on the home page, the nomadic
Guattari starts hitting the fan.
I noticed this
yesterday, and I wasn’t sure whether this
was an objective epiphenomenon of the failure of
the diffuse, decentred and purportedly self-regulating
information network of late hyper-capitalism to
fulfil the emancipatory promises of the Global
Village; or whether, by contrast, my computer was
a bit buggered.
Albeit not in
the Deleuzian sense, I hasten to add.
Yet, the
signification runs as follows (or does it follow?):
‘500 Internal Service Error,’ and I
think (although I am far from a Master) that this
does signify an unregulated and unanticipated
dispersal of affect within the signifying chain.
I would recommend imposition of a new system of
regulation that is scarily reminiscent of the
first, or even a return of the repressed Athenian
logicality of the pristine, non-epigonised
original insofar as there is(/not) a difference.
