SRL opinion
Survival Research Laboratories as fantasy. I don’t see how what SRL does can be called fantasy. It’s just a bunch of anarchists screwing around with machines. There is no quality of art in what they are doing. Their ‘performances’ consist of slightly controllable contraptions breaking things and breaking down themselves. It s just a bunch of wackos playing with big toys. That’s all it really comes down too. I don’t see how they could be similar to anything else that illustrates the same kinds of fantasy, because there wasn’t anything there to begin with. What is their fantasy? Are they saying that their performances of breaking windows is a fantasy of the destruction of civilization? If that’s their fantasy, then there’s probably other people out there with the same ideas, but as for mainstream, not a chance. Mainstream consists of people in civilizations, so they tend to like having them intact, as it brings some nice benefits, if you haven’t noticed by looking around. Their whole ability to make their machines to destroy civilization comes from that self same civilization. These SRL people are just a bunch of retards who don’t want to work or be productive, so they make up some bullshit excuse for what they are doing. Although that is true for a lot of art that really isn’t. It’s just bullshit people make up cause they don’t want to get involved in the real world because they don’t like to interact with other people in normal ways or they don’t want to put in an honest days work.
Here’s a little taste of what I saw in that SRL piece we saw( there is more writing after this):

Pretty annoying and not much of a point there. Well that’s exactly how I feel about SRL. Except I had to watch about 20 minutes of that ridiculousness. The reason I think they did it in Amsterdam was because no one else would’ve allowed that nonsense anywhere else. There were definite safety issues and the comment on society wasn’t one that would be very welcome in most civilized places. People don’t usually like you coming to where they live and talking shit about their way of life, whether openly or through another form of expression, in this case explosions and banging machines.
So SRL is just a load of bullshit that got stuck under art because there wasn’t any place else to put it and there’s already enough idiots doing lame shit and calling it art now and days that no one would really say anything about it.
