What if we thought about generative AI more as an expression of an epochal shift in human communication than a root cause? More than transmitting specific information, “content”—whether a mukbang video or this 3600 word essay—is now foremost a conductor of “vibes.” "Hallucinating Sense in the Era of Infinity Content" was written in early 2024 by Caroline Busta for Document Journal SS 2024.

Suri reviews Blue Ruin by Hari Kunzru. 

Few creative works ever managed to get the weird pathologies and unique characters of the art world quite right. But journalist and author Hari Kunzru's newest novel Blue Ruin is definitely one of those works. Set in the early stages of the pandemic, Kunzru's novel looks at how wealth and privilege function and fester in the art world. It's  an astonishing and incisive exploration of the power dynamics and value creation in art by an author who has been keenly observing the art world's odd rituals for decades. Blue Ruin moves between lockdown in upstate New York where some art professionals are hiding out on a very nice property, and then moves back in time to the optimistic art scene of the 1990s in London. Between these places, we follow Jay, a British artist who makes a grand gesture of quitting art in his twenties, only to find himself ramped back into the art world and the people who haunted it, all of which he had tried to leave behind. Originally from Britain and based in New York. Kunzru is the author of seven novels, including White Tears and Red Pill. Blue Ruin is the third of this trilogy.  He's also a regular contributor to the New York Review of books in the New York Times and writes a column for Harpers. Kunzru also teaches in the creative writing program at New York University and is the host of the podcast Into the Zone.

Hari returns to the podcast to talk about his latest novel, "Blue Ruin", published by Scribner.  Hussein and Hari talk about the London art scene in the 90s and early aughts, and how the novel examines the relationship between art, authenticity and access to capital. Hari also talks about  the challenges of writing a 'Pandemic Novel' at a time when most governments are choosing to believe it never happened, and whether art can have a long-lasting social impact at a time when so much cultural production demands more intensity and immediacy as a means to enhance the 'consumer experience'.  Purchase a copy of 'Blue Ruin' here: https://www.simonandschuster.co.uk/books/Blue-Ruin/Hari-Kunzru/9781398528918 Listen to Hari's podcast, 'In the Zone' here: https://www.pushkin.fm/podcasts/into-the-zone -------- PALESTINE AID LINKS As the humanitarian crisis continues to unfold in Gaza, we encourage anyone who can to donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians.

This week, Anna Katharina Schaffner on a top-to-tail exploration of deportment; and Toby Lichtig in conversation with novelist Hari Kunzru at the Hay Festival.'Slouch: Posture Panic in Modern America', by Beth Linker'Blue Ruin', by Hari KunzruProduced by Charlotte Pardy Hosted on Acast.

Colm Tóibín hat mit „Long Island” die Fortsetzung von „Brooklyn“ vorgelegt. Ein neuer Roman über Liebesunordnung zwischen Amerika und Irland, der es besonders einem der beiden Podcaster stark angetan hat. Hari Kunzru berichtet in „Blue Ruin“ von ähnlichem und außerdem der Kunstszene, vornehmlich der der Neunzigerjahre. Manche Vorkommnisse sind tragikomisch, insgesamt aber doch eher dramatisch. Der Kunzru-Sound ist unübersehbar, der Kubiczek-Sound auch: In „Nostalgia“ erzählt André Kubiczek, der Meister im Beschreiben von Teenagerwelten, wieder vom Jungsein und der DDR. Vor allem jedoch von seiner aus Laos stammenden Mutter, die er früh verlor.

Eine zerstörerische Liebe, eine korrupte Kunstszene und das brisante Porträt der US-amerikanischen Demokratie. Der neue Roman des Erfolgsautors Hari Kunzru aus New York hat wieder alle Zutaten zu einem spannenden, gesellschaftspolitischen Szenario von psychologischer Tiefe und grotesker Komik. Rezension von Cornelia Zetzsche                                                                        

Mit Büchern von Meri Valkama, Hari Kunzru, Marlen Haushofer und Elias Hirschl – und ein Einblick in die antillanische Literatur

Last week we were joined in the bookshop by Hari Kunzru, whose new novel Blue Ruin is a deeply unsettling, and intensely thought provoking reflection on the impact capital has on people, but also on art, and those who create it. It is the perfect final instalment—alongside White Tears and Red Pill—in Hari Kunzru's own trois couleurs —a loose trilogy that has taken the temperature of our modern world, and found it to be profoundly unwell.Buy Blue Ruin here: https://www.shakespeareandcompany.com/books/blue-ruin*HARI KUNZRU is the author of six novels, Red Pill, White Tears, Gods Without Men, My Revolutions, Transmission, and The Impressionist.

In the May issue, Erik Baker and Hari Kunzru debunk the conservative and leftist visions of the “crisis of work.” Rather than automation and quiet quitting, the problem lies with the shared feeling that the American experiment is failing. The all-consuming entrepreneurial drive we've been taught will give our lives meaning has revealed itself to be false, as stagnation abounds in all aspects of work: technology hasn't made us more productive, nor has greater effort made us richer. With an eye toward the historical, Baker and Kunzru consider the true roles that technology, ideology, resources, and finance play in contemporary work culture.

PIGUŁKA DOBRA I ZŁA Czy duchy przeszłości trzymają współczesność za gardło?

This week has seen an escalation in several of the investigations into Donald Trump and his businesses. We know the FBI seized 11 sets of classified material during their Mar-a-Lago search, but we don't know the evidence used by the Justice Department to get the warrant required. That could soon start to change.  A judge is starting the process to potentially release some of that info as early as next week. Meantime, one of the former president's most trusted executives Allen Weisselberg has pleaded guilty to helping the Trump Organization engage in a 15-year-long tax fraud scheme. To digest all this, Sara speaks with former FBI special agent Asha Rangappa.  Also on today's show: Two friends of Salman Rushdie, PEN America CEO Suzanne Nossel and novelist Hari Kunzru, discuss last week's attack on the renowned author; author Nahid Shahalimi on her new book We Are Still Here, discusses why Afghan women should be involved in setting policy for their country.To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

This week we're joined by author and journalist Hari Kunzru, author of The Impressionist, Transmission, and Gods Without Men, to discuss his latest novel, 'Red Pill'.  The novel is an exploration of radicalisation, online culture, the alt-right, sanity, and history. A writer signs on for a three-month retreat in Berlin and finds himself extremely micro-managed, finding solace in watching a police show called Blue Lives. I'm underselling the novel here but I truly cannot recommend it enough. But first, we take a look at an essay written by Hari for the NYRB that explores the same themes. And even earlier still, we watch a tiktok of a woman meeting some nice happy men with snakes. You can find Hari at https://twitter.com/harikunzru find the essay we discuss at https://www.nybooks.com/articles/2020/03/26/trolls-4chan-gamergate-lulz/ and find his novels anywhere books are sold. -------- Ten Thousand Posts is a show about how everything is posting.

Jaipur Literature Festival (2012) Main article: Jaipur Literature Festival Rushdie was due to appear at the Jaipur Literature Festival in January 2012 in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. However, he later cancelled his event appearance, and a further tour of India at the time citing a possible threat to his life as the primary reason. Several days after, he indicated that state police agencies had lied, in order to keep him away, when they informed him that paid assassins were being sent to Jaipur to kill him. Police contended that they were afraid Rushdie would read from the banned The Satanic Verses, and that the threat was real, considering imminent protests by Muslim organizations. Meanwhile, Indian authors Ruchir Joshi, Jeet Thayil, Hari Kunzru and Amitava Kumar abruptly left the festival, and Jaipur, after reading excerpts from Rushdie's banned novel at the festival. The four were urged to leave by organizers as there was a real possibility they would be arrested. A proposed video link session between Rushdie and the Jaipur Literature Festival was also cancelled at the last minute after the government pressured the festival to stop it. Rushdie returned to India to address a conference in New Delhi on 16 March 2012. Chautauqua attack (2022) Main article: Stabbing of Salman Rushdie On 12 August 2022, while about to start a lecture at the Chautauqua Institution in Chautauqua, New York, Rushdie was attacked by a man who rushed up onto the stage and stabbed him repeatedly, including in the neck. The attacker was pulled away before being taken into custody; Rushdie was airlifted to hospital in Erie, Pennsylvania, where he underwent surgery. Rushdie's agent, Andrew Wylie, said: "Salman will likely lose one eye; the nerves in his arm were severed; and his liver was stabbed and damaged." Wylie said Rushdie is currently on a ventilator and unable to speak. In the years prior to the stabbing, Rushdie traveled without a security detail while the Chautauqua festival where he was speaking is known for an "accessible" and "relaxed environment." The CEO of PEN America noted, "We cannot immediately think of any comparable incident of a public violent attack on a writer during a literary event here in the United States." The New York Times reported that the incident sent "ripples of 'shock and horror' through the literary world". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salman_Rushdie

Het is alweer april en dat betekent dat we beroemde 1 april-grappen bespreken. In de ronde ‘Bil, kikker, in' moet Daan met een aantal ingrediënten de ooit gemaakte 1 april grap raden. Maar we bespreken ook uitvoerig de recente leeskick van Daan en tippen jullie zo meerdere boeken. Voor de liefhebber: ‘Red Pill' van Hari Kunzru, ‘Het Personeel' van Olga Ravn, ‘Bloodlands' van Timothy Snyder en van onze eigen Daan is nu het Young Adult luisterboek ‘De Leven' te beluisteren op Storytell!Tenslotte spelen we een spel gebaseerd op een figuur die Elly als kind Peter van de Chocolademelk noemde, namelijk: ‘Rivellie Lust er nog wel één'. Daan is kort de weg kwijt als hij in een nostalgiegat wordt weggezogen - maar gelukkig trekt Elly hem er net op tijd weer uit. Waarom is Elly niet meer welkom op kraamvisite?

Timothy Wilcox (@PreCursorPoets) is one of my my favorite writers on contemporary literature. He joins me to discuss three very online novels published in the past year or so: Hari Kunzru's Red Pill, Lauren Oyler's Fake Accounts, and Patricia Lockwood's No One is Talking about This. He shares his thoughts on the genre of internet fiction and the evolving phenomenon of "hyperconnectivity" as manifest in literary texts. We also consider the complicated interaction between the temporality of fiction and the temporality of the internet, the outsized role of Donald Trump in recent internet novels, and recent writers' attempts to channel and appropriate the dark energies of the internet. https://www.precursorpoets.com/always-online-prelude/ https://www.precursorpoets.com/uninterrupted-connection-infinite-grace/ https://medium.com/arc-digital/writing-the-great-american-novel-in-the-age-of-meme-warfare-273006eb85de
