On this special edition of Content Minded, I cover the history, legacy, theories, politics and imaginations around what was known as Kowloon Walled city, or the "city of darkness" in the middle of Hong Kong until it's demolition in the early 90s. I discuss it's significance in the realm of political ideas, the concept of the living "megastructure", it's aesthetic influence, the role of art as a form of anthropology, and more importantly Kowloon as a model of internet space and digital communities.
the paid version is over 3 hours and features a discussion of William Gibson's science fiction writing that was inspired by Kowloon, as well as discussions on juridical law and political philosophy as it relates to Kowloon and the internet in the works of Frederic Jameson and Giorgio Agamben. as well as a bonus talk on the accounts of Communism by a Romanian priest.
