Re: [-empyre-] Critical Spatial Practice

[saul ostrow <sostrow@gate.cia.edu>]

Seemingly at this point in history art is hardwired to function as  
an  emergent subject, that maintains and reforms itself through  a  
recursive critical application of  its own values system.  It is by  
means of this process its practices reach a specific  point of  
qualitative change - consequently, it is a practice that is self- 
reflexively committed to the revision, reformation or demise of its  
its own objective's in accord with the social, economic and cultural  
environment. As such it, as a system rather than its products is  
exemplary.
