Subject: The Dromology/Dumbology M2 Controversy


Jon and Scott Mc:

The following is what started the controversy. Do you agree with the
following excerpts? Why or why not?
==========================================================================> Subject: New List: DROMOLOGY <snip>
> 	Announcement: Spoons list: Dromology
> Dromology is the study of speed. Speed has been defined by Paul Virilio as
> the social, political and military logic of systematic movement accelerated
> to a vanishing point at which territory, as traditionally conceived, is
> replaced by "a government of nothing but time." <snip>

**** [..."a government of nothing but time"???, JL] ****

**** [..."accelerated to a vanishing point...."???, JL] ****

> To govern is to see, and to see is to
> shoot, and to shoot is reconnaissance, and back to start again.

**** [!!!, JL] ****

> Toward that end, Spoons is introducing the Dromology list. <snip>

**** [an application by the Spoon Collective of the "to govern is to see
...." principle?, JL] ****
