Nonfiction. Criticism and Theory. Political Science. An infinite
series of bifurcations: this is how we can tell the story of our
life, of our loves, but also the history of revolts, defeats and
restorations of order. At any given moment different paths open up
in front of us, and we are continually presented with the
alternative of going here or going there. Then we decide, we cut
out from a set of infinite possibilities and choose a single path.
But do we really choose? Is it really a question of a choice, when
we go here rather than there? Is it really a choice, when masses go
to shopping centers, when revolutions are transformed into
massacres, when nations enter into war? It is not we who decide but
the concatenations: machines for the liberation of desires and
mechanisms of control over the imaginary. The fundamental
bifurcation is always this one: between machines for liberating
desire and mechanisms of control over the imaginary. In our time of
digital mutation, technical automatisms are taking control of the
social psyche.
