T he Rider Victory Radio Show! San Francisco is live and directo on the air, in the silicon, across the great optical ocean of light, beaming from the San Francisco Bay Area. Let DJ Seductotron unwind your mind and play inspiring tracks to take you up as the heart of Saturday night begins to come alive.
This is a showcase for the fresh, inspiring, and lovable music and culture blooming in the Bay Area at the dawn of the 21st century. Local bands, farway bands, people I find on myspace, and all manner of DIY heroes. In addition to music, most weeks I'll feature an interview at the top of the second hour with a local artist.
You can catch us online at westaddradio.com, where you can also hear past shows archived as mp3. Or, you can dust off your radio and tune on in to 93.7 FM. Our signal reaches the Western Addition, Lower Haight, Mission, Bayshore, Noe, Castro, Potrero, Excelsior, Twin Peaks, and more! In glorious Stereo sound!
Steady as she goes,
Your host,
DJ Seductotron

And now a word from our spandex:
1. Capitalism only supports certain kinds of groups, the nuclear family for example, or ``the people I know at my job,'' because such groups are already self-alienated & hooked into the Work/Consume/Die structure. Other kinds of groups may be allowed, but will lack all support from the societal structure, & thus find themselves facing grotesque challenges & difficulties which appear under the guise of `` bad luck.''
The first & most innocent-seeming obstacle to any Immediatist project will be the ``busyness'' or ``need to make a living'' faced by each of its associates. However there is no real innocence here--only our profound ignorance of the ways in which Capitalism itself is organized to prevent all genuine conviviality.
No sooner have a group of friends begun to visualize immediate goals realizable only thru solidarity & cooperation, then suddenly one of them will be offered a ``good'' job in Cincinnati or teaching English in Taiwan--or else have to move back to California to care for a dying parent--or else they'll lose the ``good'' job they already have & be reduced to a state of misery which precludes their very enjoyment of the group's project or goals (i.e. they'll become ``depressed'' ). At the most mundane-seeming level, the group will fail to agree on a day of the week for meetings because everyone is ``busy.'' But this is not mundane. It's sheer cosmic evil. We whip ourselves into froths of indignation over ``oppression'' & ``unjust laws'' when in fact these abstractions have little impact on our daily lives--while that which really makes us miserable goes unnoticed, written off to ``busyness'' or ``distraction'' or even to the nature of reality itself (``Well, I can't live without a job!'').
Yes, perhaps it's true we can't ``live'' without a job--although I hope we're grown-up enough to know the difference between life & the accumulation of a bunch of fucking gadgets. Still, we must constantly remind ourselves (since our culture won't do it for us) that this monster called WORK remains the precise & exact target of our rebellious wrath, the one single most oppressive reality we face (& we must learn also to recognize Work when it's disguised as ``leisure'').
To be ``too busy'' for the Immediatist project is to miss the very essence of Immediatism. To struggle to come together every Monday night (or whatever), in the teeth of the gale of busyness, or family, or invitations to stupid parties--that struggle is already Immediatism itself. Succeed in actually physically meeting face-to-face with a group which is not your spouse-&-kids, or the ``guys from my job,'' or your 12-Step Program--& you have already achieved virtually everything Immediatism yearns for. An actual project will arise almost spontaneously out of this successful slap-in-the-face of the social norm of alienated boredom. Outwardly, of course, the project will seem to be the group' s purpose, its motive for coming together--but in fact the opposite is true. We're not kidding or indulging in hyperbole when we insist that meeting face-to-face is already ``the revolution.''
