-->
"Flaming" by the UK based artists group Glorious Ninth
Flaming (our/your/their rage) 2004

All debate about ownership and empowerment, democracy and accountability,
long term perspectives and global, environmental issues are trodden
underfoot and a chilling efficiency in dehumanising whole societies and
populations, is allowed to remove any possibility of debate and empathic
shared existence with those about to die.

Flaming (our/your/their rage) is a release of anger and frustration against
the powerful. Power and rage smashes a country already suffering. A lack of
power to control everything provokes this rage. Artist, activist, freedom
fighter, terrorist - where do our liberal values start and stop? Rage of the
new yorkers, rage of america as they experienced violation. Rage at our
collective lack of insight and our/your/their crouched/couched response.
Rage that they/you/we want revenge. Rage at the twittery of politicians,
their sell-out, and our stupidity to think they might be something they
could be. Rage at our own hypocrisy. Rage at the defeat of the left, and at
the utter abandonment of real hope. Rage at the inadequacies of intellectual
arguments. Rage that there isn't an easy answer. Rage that it¹s complex and
there's not enough time in a life-time. Rage that there's no serious debate
about what we actually want and about how it can be achieved and about how
we understand the world.


What is dished out from our representatives is simplistic, fundamentalist
medieval crap. How can it be that I am either with you or against you? How
can the means justify the ends justify the means? How can there be an axis
of evil? How can this axis of evil shift so much that it obliterates
Oallies¹ who Ostood by our side¹ so recently. How can this be the path of
righteousness and the act of a democratic society when carpet bombing,
depleted uranium shells and the full might of the very latest technologies -
which we spend so much time discussing in terms of the alienating nature of
its inherent logic - is used to incapacitate people/countries/societies in
the name of progress and future generations?

About the artists
Glorious Ninth is a collaboration between Patrick Simons and Kate
Southworth. Through the process of producing Internet based art, we have
both found a space that suits our ongoing investigations into a variety of
social and historical phenomena. Combining the pursuit of a clear (if
complex) understanding of how the world Oworks¹ with the desire to
communicate that understanding to others, our projects are located at the
nexus between art and social science. We investigate the material world and
communicate our findings using many different approaches to Oknowing¹.
