Rave

Product Information

The term maskirovka was previously used in countries within the Soviet Bloc to describe tactics of deception and camouflage, and reemerged with the revelation that masked special forces from Russia had entered Crimea to support separatists and instigate the war in eastern Ukraine. In Zielony’s melancholy portraits of Kiev nightlife, young ravers appropriate this tactic, using masks and heavy-laden makeup to both make, claim, hide, and distort their identities.

Matthew Smith, a photographer from Bristol who documented many of the free parties, has created an archive of photographs from the period. His new book Full On. Non-Stop. All Over is published tomorrow and looks at the post-rave club culture that emerged after Spiral Tribe and others were forced out of the UK. Bernard, Helmholtz, and John are all brought before Mustapha Mond, the "Resident World Controller for Western Europe", who tells Bernard and Helmholtz that they are to be exiled to islands for antisocial activity. Bernard pleads for a second chance, but Helmholtz welcomes the opportunity to be a true individual, and chooses the Falkland Islands as his destination, believing that their bad weather will inspire his writing. Mond tells Helmholtz that exile is actually a reward. The islands are full of the most interesting people in the world, individuals who did not fit into the social model of the World State. Mond outlines for John the events that led to the present society and his arguments for a caste system and social control. John rejects Mond's arguments, and Mond sums up John's views by claiming that John demands "the right to be unhappy". John asks if he may go to the islands as well, but Mond refuses, saying he wishes to see what happens to John next.After the Age of Utopias came what we may call the American Age, lasting as long as the Boom. Men like Ford or Mond seemed to many to have solved the social riddle and made capitalism the common good. But it was not native to us; it went with a buoyant, not to say blatant optimism, which is not our negligent or negative optimism. Much more than Victorian righteousness, or even Victorian self-righteousness, that optimism has driven people into pessimism. For the Slump brought even more disillusionment than the War. A new bitterness, and a new bewilderment, ran through all social life, and was reflected in all literature and art. It was contemptuous, not only of the old Capitalism, but of the old Socialism. Brave New World is more of a revolution against Utopia than against Victoria. [38]
