8. OK, you're still using terms that I have no idea what they mean but I
found this at your link;

Détournement is less effective the more it approaches a rational reply. That BB cartoon certainly runs far away from a rational response that it's detournement is through the roof!

It's DetournEment (french), not detournment(not an actual english word at least where I have been able to find)

"spectacle" - I assume is a reference to our world and it's inherent silliness in general

"Situationists" and "Situationists International" - I've never heard the terms until your post, I'll google later.


For the OP: Sorry to hijack your thread, but I didn't make it and it may be poisoned!!
