Happy new Year all, here's my 1st review of 2014!-)

Agit Disco VS The Zombie Apocalypse.
Marc Garrett reviews Stefan Szczelkun's book Agit Disco.
http://www.furtherfield.org/features/reviews/agit-disco-vs-zombie-apocalypse
The subtle and not so subtle domination by market interests of
cultural production and dialogue denies us all access to a wide
spectrum of creative expression, especially those that engage in
subjects that conflict with the agendas of those in power. Agit Disco
by Stefan Szczelkun published by Mute in 2012, combats this
contemporary trend by focusing on music, politics, DIY culture, and
freedom of expression. In doing so he starts to redress the lack of
representation across the board for those in grass roots culture and
working class lives, whose freedoms to have a voice in society are so
commonly restricted.
“Agit Disco offers a breath of fresh air, in the fug of the developing
marketisation of everything. It presents grounded examples of
difference that contrast with the dominating view of entertainment
systems. It features 23 playlists put forward by 23 different writers,
artist and activists. It began as a set of mixed CDs and images, each
chapter includes annotations and illustrations. Its contributors are
Sian Addicott, Louise Carolin, Peter Conlin, Mel Croucher, Martin
Dixon, John Eden, Sarah Falloon, Simon Ford, Peter Haining, Stewart
Home, Tom Jennings, DJ Krautpleaser, Roger McKinley, Micheline Mason,
Tracey Moberly, Luca Paci, Room 13 – Lochyside Scotland, Howard
Slater, Johnny Spencer, Stefan Szczelkun, Andy T, Neil Transpontine,
and Tom Vague.”
Stefan Szczelkun is an artist and author interested in culture and
democracy. In the early Seventies he was fortunate to be part of the
Scratch Orchestra and has since been involved with a series of artists
collectives. His doctoral research into the Exploding Cinema
collective was completed at the RCA in 2002. Recently his
collaborative project Agit Disco was published as a Mute book in 2012.
He has been on the Mute magazine editorial board since 2009, and
currently working on photographic and performance projects.
