The Department of Smog

 


 Can our militaries protect us from an unliveable planet? The rationale for their existence is that they protect - but in performing their duties, they also pollute … massively.


This videopoem series confronts the paradox of immense defense budgets causing a slow, borderless catastrophe.

Muriel Spark

 


 Muriel Spark on morally improving victim narratives in comparison to satire. Is the former somewhat fake on a psychological level? More: which one really has the greatest power to effect social change?


Her essay was written in 1970, more than fifty five years ago. What can it tell us now?
