ARMED CELL 1

Edited by Brian Angarmedcell@gmail.comarmedcell.blogspot.comCover images by Paul Chan ph-chan.comPhysical edition of 100FreeARMED CELL seeks to publish what is urgent and necessary in poetry and  poetics. It insists on militancy “working for the emancipation of humanity in its entirety” (Alain Badiou) to confront the notion of there being at present

“too much anti-capitalism” (Slavoj Žižek) and not enough direct action

against “capitalism (or whatever other name we might want to give to the  process dominating world history today)” (Giorgio Agamben). ARMED CELL seeks relationship with those engaged in research and practice with this matrix of concerns, in order to be, like Lenin’s pre-revolution withdrawal to study Hegel, a site for the study necessary for executing political actions.

ARMED CELL 1 was rst distributed at the Durruti Free Skool, Berkeley,

California, 12–14 August 2011. ARMED CELL 2 will appear in February 2012. Submit cover images and writing by the end of December 2011 for consideration.
