A montage of two kinds of montage, two types of assembling images
about, in between, beyond, as a war machine within the images
themselves. A fine line between love and hate: 1. Jean Genets »Un chant
d’amour« (A love Song) – how to make love through a wall and que(e)r it
(smoke). 2. The Godard/Gorin/Mieville machine »Ici et Ailleure« (Here
and Elsewhere) – how to use a two-image-assembly to ruin the war
montage itself - are we not mature to read an Image yet? (Fascism)

Arms Race, Architectural [Ines Weizman]

An architectural arms race is a competition between two or more countries for supremacy through the means of architecture and urbanism. Each party competes to produce architectural imagery or concrete built form to achieve a relative gain over the other. Such gain could be accounted for either symbolically, or physically interfering with urban practices in the country of the opponent.
