Mar 01, 2016. New. In Volume 47 – The System* we’re dilating our pupils to focus on ‘the system’ itself, treating it as a result of design. If we want to change the system, lobbying is not enough. Applying strategies like leveraging, short-circuiting, disrupting and infecting might be more effective. It’s not the latest Hollywood production, the ultimate sound experience, or Apple’s next level consumer lock-in product line. And despite its ominous ring, it isn’t the enemy either, like the NSA appears to be. The System* indicates the complex interaction of the economy, professional practice and personal choice. The asterisk draws attention to the ambiguity of such a term, while hinting at an intention to change ‘it’, whatever it is. What the system does, on the other hand, is perhaps more easily understood: it organizes things. The system is a set of institutions and infrastructures that shape the contours of resource flows and modulate the rhythms of material cycles. The system doesn’t just distribute and determine availability though; it frames the imagination and conditions creative activity there within.
