*There’s nothing new – energy can’t be created or destroyed: the first law of thermodynamics. Energy within a system becomes less organised, less concentrated: the second law of thermodynamics. It’s all about the dispersion of energy. Metabolism itself is a machine of annihilation.
Decay is all. It’s about unbecoming, rather than becoming. It’s about dissipation – about ways in which dissipation happens. And perpetual dissipation ends only when everything that exists has the lowest amount of energy possible – that’s the third law of thermodynamics.
The heat death of the universe: that’s where it’s all heading. Burn-out. Energy exhausted, dissipated, spread too thin to make anything happen. Just low level background radiation, evenly distributed. The cosmological dark era. And in the meantime: rot, sickness, decay, breakdown and death.
You can’t live in harmony with all this. You can’t work in concert with it all. Because it’s evil. The whole thing is part of an evil system. The universe makes us suffer. It is the direct cause of our suffering.
Even Organisational Management is going to fail. The very capacity to organise. To manage. All we can do is struggle against entropy. To fold it back upon itself. To keep it at bay. It’s resistance, philosopher. The campus is resistance.
On that logic, the Third Reich was resistance.
