*** TO READ

[!!!*] NF/POLITICS— Kathy Acker

"""
#KathyAcker: “What I have always hated about the bourgeois story is that it closes down. I don’t use the bourgeois story-line because the real content of that novel is the property structure of reality. It’s about ownership. That isn’t my world-reality. My world isn’t about ownership. In my world people don’t even remember their names, they aren’t sure of their sexuality, they aren’t sure of they can define their genders. That’s the way you feel in the mythical stories. You don’t know quite why they act the way they act, and they don’t care…. The reader doesn’t own the character…. You don’t quite know what the world is, you’re in a strange world. The early Greek stories were all about strange worlds…. You’re allowed to just move, you’re allowed to wander. It’s like travelling. I’ve always envied men this and I can never travel being a woman. I always wanted to be a sailor, that’s what I really love.” (HL23)

[?!] COLONIALISM/ART/SCIENCE— ###; Sylvia Wynter

"""
Jamaican novelist,[1] dramatist,[2] critic, philosopher, and essayist.[3] Her work combines insights from the natural sciences, the humanities, art, and anti-colonial struggles in order to unsettle what she refers to as the "overrepresentation of Man." Black studies, economics, history, neuroscience, psychoanalysis, literary analysis, film analysis, and philosophy are some of the fields she draws on in her scholarly work.

[!] NF/PHILOSOPHY/SCIENCE— Science in Action; Bruno Latour
How to Follow Scientists and Engineers through Society

"""
Science and technology have immense authority and influence in our society, yet their working remains little understood. The conventional perception of science in Western societies has been modified in recent years by the work of philosophers, sociologists and historians of science. In this book Bruno Latour brings together these different approaches to provide a lively and challenging analysis of science, demonstrating how social context and technical content are both essential to a proper understanding of scientific activity. Emphasizing that science can only be understood through its practice, the author examines science and technology in action: the role of scientific literature, the activities of laboratories, the institutional context of science in the modern world, and the means by which inventions and discoveries become accepted. From the study of scientific practice he develops an analysis of science as the building of networks. Throughout, Bruno Latour shows how a lively and realistic picture of science in action alters our conception of not only the natural sciences but also the social sciences and the sociology of knowledge in general.    This stimulating book, drawing on a wealth of examples from a wide range of scientific activities, will interest all philosophers, sociologists and historians of science, scientists and engineers, and students of the philosophy of social science and the sociology of knowledge.

[!!!*] NF/POLITICS/COMMUNISM— A Martian Stranded on Earth; Nikolai Krementsov (E-reader?)
Alexander Bogdanov, Blood Transfusions, and Proletarian Science

"""
Much like Vladimir Lenin, his onetime rival for the leadership of the Bolshevik party during its formative years, Alexander Bogdanov (1873–1928) was a visionary. In two science fiction novels set on Mars, Bogdanov imagined a future in which the workers of the world, liberated from capitalist exploitation, create a “physiological collective” that rejuvenates and unites its members through regular blood exchanges. But Bogdanov was not merely a dreamer. He worked tirelessly to popularize and realize his vision, founding the first research institute devoted to the science of blood transfusion.
