4pmBen Watson from www.MilitantEsthetix.co.uk and Didier Mervelet, General
Secretary of Less Fils de l'Invention (the Parisian chapter of Frank Zappa
fans), provide a critique of political anniversaries and sectarian attempts
to carve up the past by talking about 1968 and MUSIC, the crucial key to
subjectivity under capitalism. They'll each talk for 20 minutes, and then
open up the meeting to discussion. In order to prevent the seance from
straying too far away from everyday life, at 4:55pm a new speaker will be
introduced by Esther Leslie, Mordecai Merz Breezeblock Tiley Watson, six
weeks old, to test the truth of Christopher Gray's assertion at the end of
Leaving the 20th Century "Psychoanalysis and Trotskyists are both silly old
men to the child". Hotcha!
