Just a thought....
I was considering the fairly recent discussion concerning MD as the
proto-zone, and it occured to me that there are strong parallels between
the MD proto-zone vs. GR post(or simul)tech zone split and the primitive
anarchists vs. futurist anarchists split.
In any case, this all relates because Hakim Bey has a real great essay
dealing with just that split (titled if I'm correct "primitivism and
externalism") that can be found at the t0 archive. In many ways it
neatly reconciles MD and GR.
And Bey even uses "The Zone" (or rather the temporal autonomous zone,
although that's not quite as nice a fit) as a means to bridge the gap
between them!
Gershom Bazerman
PS if anyone has any info on bey (not his writings, but rather the
community in which he exists or his prominence among scholars,
anarchists, or others), it'd be greatly appreciated.
