Overview

From one perspective, a programme for a radicalized practice of Thought; from another perspective, a fractured history of certain 19th and 20th Century avant-gardes; from yet another perspective, an experiment in utopian historiography. Or possibly a meticulously researched speculative novel. The most comprehensive presentation to date of Lindsann's over-arching (theoretical/political/metaphysical) project, and his conceptualization of the potential of radically engaged avant-gardes acting multigenerationally.
