Ian F. Svenonious

    Ian Svenonius est un musicien et auteur dont les œuvres sont unifiées par un programme politique anti-autoritaire, populiste et plein d'esprit. En tant que chanteur et force créative, il a dirigé des groupes influents qui ont mêlé le garage rock, la soul et des éléments de ce qu'il a appelé la "théologie de la libération" en un nouveau genre distinctif. Ses projets musicaux et ses écrits défient constamment l'autorité avec une sensibilité ludique et ironique. L'art de Svenonius invite les lecteurs et les auditeurs à remettre en question les normes sociales et les structures de pouvoir.

      "Against the Written Word is the most important, most revolutionary book produced since the advent of the printing press; the book that will liberate readers from reading, writers from writing, and booksellers from peddling their despicable wares. This book ushers in a new era of freedom from reading and all its attendant bedfellows such as Enlightenment thinking and the mass alienation wrought by the phonetic alphabet. Against the Written Word will be a tremendous best seller and simultaneously the last book that anyone will read. With nineteen essays ripping, shredding, tearing apart all the bugaboos that haunt humanity nowadays, Against the Written Word is a must-read for any aspiring radical or would-be gnostic who has a penchant for words, thought, clothes, intoxicants, music, art, expression, etc. The work is presented in a range of writing: essays, screenplays, lectures, sci-fi stories, and manifestos, with topics that include "the rise of incorporated man," "tourism as the neoliberal mode of military occupation," a workshop on songwriting for the purpose of suggestion and mind control, and many more."-- Provided by publisher
