E l d a r o g e n d u r t e k n i n g a r í a l d i n g a r ð i n u m TMM 2012 · 1 37 Evu um kosti þess að bragða af ávexti þekkingarinnar tókst Satani – þessum „eilífa uppreisnarseggi, fyrsta fríþenkjaranum“ eins og rúss- neski anarkistinn Bakunin kallaði hann39 – að dýpka skilning mannsins og færa honum vald til að sjá í gegnum fáfræðifrelsi hins góða, óhlýðnast og krefjast þess að fá raunverulega að lifa. Í Lundúnum 2011 hljómaði krafan hátt um tónleikasalinn, mínúturnar urðu margar, veggir aldingarðsins enduðu sem illa tenntir tanngarðar og skilningstrén tæmdust af eplum er enduðu sem áburður á grjótið eftir ferðalög um meltingarfæri óþekku barnanna – sögunni samkvæmt hvorki í fyrsta sinn né hið síðasta. Tilvísanir 1 Áður en Iannis Xenakis (1922–2001) hóf tónsmíðaferil sinn barðist hann í framlínu andófsins gegn innrás Ítala og Þjóðverja í Grikkland á meðan á annarri heimsstyrjöldinni stóð og síðar gegn einræðisstjórninni sem var endurreist að kröfu Breta eftir stríðið. Fyrir vikið hlaut hann dauðadóm en hafði þá flúið til Frakklands. Xenakis talar m.a. um áhrif óeirða á tónsmíðar sínar í sjónvarpsviðtali sem nálgast má á http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j4nj2nklbts [sótt 27. janúar 2012]. 2 „Theresa May: The lessons I learned from the report on the summer riots“, Mail Online, 18. desember 2011, http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2075540/Theresa-May-lessons-SHE- learnt-weeks-LSE-report-summer-riots.html [sótt 13. janúar 2012]. May sagði: „In April, during the Royal Wedding, we showed the world the very best aspects of our society. Three months later we showed them the very worst.“ 3 Viðtalið við Howe má nálgast á http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biJgILxGK0o [sótt 27. janúar 2012]. 4 Laurie Penny: „Panic on the streets of London“, 9. ágúst 2011, http://pennyred.blogspot. com/2011/08/panic-on-streets-of-london.html [sótt 13. janúar 2012]. Penny sagði: „People riot because they have spent their whole lives being told that they are good for nothing, and they realise that together they can do anything – literally, anything at all.“ 5 Guy Debord: The Decline and Fall of the Spectacle-Commodity Economy, Bandaríkin, 1965. Textann má nálgast á http://theanarchistlibrary.org/HTML/Situationist_International__ The_Decline_and_Fall_of_the_Spectacle-Commodity_Economy.html [sótt 13. janúar 2012]. Debord segir: „Looting is a natural response to the unnatural and inhuman society of commo- dity abundance. It instantly undermines the commodity as such, and it also expose what the commodity ultimately implies: the army, the police and the other specialized detachments of the state‘s monopoly of armed violence.“ 6 Guy Debord: The Decline and Fall of the Spectacle-Commodity Economy. Debord segir: „He is the active servant of the commodity, the man in complete submission to the commodity, whose job it is to ensure that a given product of human labor remains a commodity, with the magical property of having to be paid for, instead of becoming a mere refrigerator or rif le – passive, inanimate object, subject to anyone who comes along to make use of it.“ 7 Tim Godwin: „We won‘t allow the rioters to get away with it“, London Evening Standard, 9. ágúst 2011. Godwin sagði: „The police service I have been a member of for 30 years is here to protect life and property.“ 8 Guy Debord: The Decline and Fall of the Spectacle-Commodity Economy. Debord segir: „In rejecting the humiliation of being subject to police, the blacks are at the same time rejecting the humiliation of being subject to commodities.“
