System of Systems

All culture is propaganda. Everything you hold dear is connected to that which subjugates you. Deconstruct art, culture, and politics, and attempt to understand the pervasive conformism that has saturated it all.Hosted by Adam Lehrer and Matthew DeNicolapatreon.com/systemofsystems safetypropaganda.substack.comx.com/SystemofSystem3x.com/safetypropagan1x.com/mattiopattio​

    UnSafety Propaganda (W/ Tarik Sadouma)

    Artist, filmmaker and founder of the Amsterdam art collective The Unsafe House (and, yes, former member of KIRAC) Tarik Sadouma joins the crew on the occasion of the release of the Unsafe House's new film Scorched Earth. The film, which chronicles the inner conflicts of the Unsafe House in a manner that blends fact and fiction while documenting Tarik's attempts to take over the U.S. pavilion of the Venice Biennale with Curtis Yarvin (and other exploits,) is the most clear enunciation of The Unsafe House's aesthetic and values. The conversation veers from the film, to the lie that "wokeness is dead," to the importance of reading Yarvin and Michele Houellebecq as art, and not just as political critique.

    Schafted (w/ Meinschaft)

    Evan and EV return to the show to discuss Meinschaft's Empire of Liberty, arguably their landmark recording to date. Released in the year of the United States' 250th anniversary, the album depicts contemporary Americana as a fragmented and distorted landscape, eerie and beautiful. A rural grotesque befitting of Flannery O'Connor made manifest as electronic sound.
