Mckenzie Wark :: Black Accelerationism

MCKENZIE WARK, Black Accelerationism (October 2017)

Sensory language leaves us with no habit for lying. We are hostile aliens, immune from dying.

The Spaceape

B/ACC Diaspora

This essay of McKenzie Wark is of great significance for various reasons. It shows to an international audience a visio-nary and quite unique variation of the accelerationist thought: Black Accelerationism, whose pioneer and incessant agent is Kodwo Eshun. Black Accelerationism lingers on the most innova-tive text about such a diasporic tendency: More Brilliant than the Sun, edited in 1998 by Quartet Books. Eshun’s book has imme-diately become an «at light speed-thought book» (the author himself defined it as “speculative acceleration”) and the Quar-tet edition is today extremely difficult to find.
