Anti-Oculus: A Philosophy of Escape
<p><em>Anti-Oculus</em> is a work of conceptual espionage: an assemblage of polemical tracts complete with a gallery of graphic illustrations inspired by postmodern and pulp classics from Anti-Oedipus to Ways of Seeing.</p> <p>Through the concept of “Ocularity”, the Acid Horizon crew trace the political, medical, and historical ways power sees us through its categories of control and counter-insurgency.</p> <p>From the thermodynamics of policing in the cyberpunk present, to the psychiatric colonization of the image, to bodies that “go astray” in an increasingly reactionary society; Anti-Oculus maps out the ways we are captured under the eyes of cyber-capital, and provokes us to find each other in pursuit of emancipation, community, and new forms of life.</p>
