Strategic Reality Dictionary offers seventy-two keys to the construction, imposition and maintenance of contemporary systems of inclusion and exclusion, which only function for two principle reasons: because of stealth, and because they are able to engineer our own unconscious beliefs." (Brian Holmes)
A book launch and presentation by author Konrad Becker
Join us for the release of Konrad Becker's Strategic Reality Dictionary. Becker will present a compelling slideshow that seeks to define the terms by which hacktivists and tactical media practitioners like Critical Art Ensemble and the Yes Men infiltrate and subvert the global information system.
