EMR Deliberately Directed At You — Moscow: LOOM Publishing, 2015 (in Russian). — 30 p. — ISBN 978-5-906072-09-2 In the United States, a spokesperson for the Multnomah County Library in Oregon told CNN that Adjaye Associates “is no longer associated with Multnomah County and the East County Library project,” a forthcoming 95,000-square-foot facility co-designed by the firm. “Holst Architecture has been and remains the prime architect of record for the building, which will continue through design and construction as planned,” the statement continued. The targeting of critical infrastructure, and the glib and more sinister glorifications of such acts is not new, nor confined to the discourses of the far-right. While, for example, both anti-civ/deep green/eco-defensive anarchists and eco- fascists may encourage targeting communications infrastructure, they do so with decidedly different aims and revolutionary visions. Distinguishing these tendencies is leftists’ use of the spectacle of sabotage as a practical and communicative means—channeling critical analysis in written communiques circulated through digital communities.

Attested in English from 1753, [1] harassment derives from the English verb harass plus the suffix -ment. The verb harass, in turn, is a loan word from the French, which was already attested in 1572 meaning torment, annoyance, bother, trouble [2] and later as of 1609 was also referred to the condition of being exhausted, overtired. [3] [4] Of the French verb harasser itself there are the first records in a Latin to French translation of 1527 of Thucydides' History of the war that was between the Peloponnesians and the Athenians both in the countries of the Greeks and the Romans and the neighboring places wherein the translator writes harasser allegedly meaning harceler (to exhaust the enemy by repeated raids); and in the military chant Chanson du franc archer [5] of 1562, where the term is referred to a gaunt jument ( de poil fauveau, tant maigre et harassée: of fawn horsehair, so meagre and …) where it is supposed that the verb is used meaning overtired. [6] In 1984, the Canadian Human Rights Act prohibited sexual harassment in workplaces under federal jurisdiction. Do I think this is all just "dark humor" and he's "making fun of himself"? No and yes, to a certain degree. I believe that Mike genuinely does harbor hatred towards the groups of people mentioned in the book, just maybe not to the same extent. Do I find it acceptable? No. But he's as free as the rest of us to speak his mind, and in my honest opinion, it's always better for these things to be out in the open rather than fester and stew somewhere in the dark.

I think that giving this book any sort of real rating would be disingenuous - but if I had to, it'd be both 1 and 5 stars at the same time, so... I'll settle for 3. D., Woods, James (1993).

It is best described not in terms of plot line, because there is no plot line, and not in terms of philosiphy, because there’s scarcely any philosiphy either. Harassment Architecture is a raw piece allowing one to enter the mind of those crushed by the hypersensitive post-industrial society of the early 21st century. It’s very difficult to convey in a coherent fashion because the thoughts of my generation are hardly coherent at the best of times. Harassment covers a wide range of behaviors of offensive nature. It is commonly understood as behavior that demeans, humiliates, and intimidates a person, and it is characteristically identified by its unlikelihood in terms of social and moral reasonableness. In the legal sense, these are behaviors that appear to be disturbing, upsetting or threatening. Traditional forms evolve from discriminatory grounds, and have an effect of nullifying a person's rights or impairing a person from benefiting from their rights. [ citation needed] When these behaviors become repetitive, it is defined as bullying. The continuity or repetitiveness and the aspect of distressing, alarming or threatening may distinguish it from insult.

At this point, the only resolution is for something to wash it all away, forcing me into the nearest flush of woods, feeding on the land and the animals I kill. Wash me all away, and this. How sad is it to desire such a thing? A system that was not that long ago a completely standard way of life. There are pieces and places of the world where it is still so — to enter them as a tainted modern man though, that's a cruel poison. The most distinct characteristic of the subculture is its unique visual style which plays a major role in its strategy of glorifying militancy and terrorism. Sharp and visually appealing aesthetics define the Terrorgram brand and build subcultural cohesion. Their in-group formation is developed through the fetishisation of the terrorist image in propaganda and ‘terrorwave’ – a visual style in which the aesthetics of the militant are worshipped. This Insight will briefly explore the importance of the aesthetics of violence in this community and how it has been incorporated into both calls for violence and real-world terrorism.

Voices within the accelerationist milieu have explicitly engaged with the concept of the idealised terrorist image. Mike Ma, an influential figure and author of the accelerationist novel ‘ Harassment Architecture’ , has argued the difference between terrorists and killers who achieve iconic status and those who do not “depends on how well they were dressed”, singling out and praising the Columbine shooters and ISIS for their ability to ‘look good’ .

The LAD prohibits employers from discriminating in any job-related action, including recruitment, interviewing, hiring, promotions, discharge, compensation and the terms, conditions and privileges of employment on the basis of any of the law's specified protected categories. These protected categories are race, creed, color, national origin, nationality, ancestry, age, sex (including pregnancy and sexual harassment), marital status, domestic partnership status, affectional or sexual orientation, atypical hereditary cellular or blood trait, genetic information, liability for military service, or mental or physical disability, including HIV/AIDS and related illnesses. The LAD prohibits intentional discrimination based on any of these characteristics. Intentional discrimination may take the form of differential treatment or statements and conduct that reflect discriminatory animus or bias. In Harassment Architecture, Charlston draws from his first-hand experience of being homeless and disabled to reflect on how he and others like him are instructed, and often forced, to navigate urban environments. He questions the purpose and value of hostile design through recalling his own testimonies, and the hardship he has encountered. He now uses architecture as a tool in campaigning for radical solutions.

The focus of these images is on what is perceived to be an attractive ‘fashionable’ style, rather than the ideological affiliations of militants. Graphics and art can include jihadists, criminals, leftist guerrillas or paramilitaries, with a common theme often being the appearance of a balaclava or mask. The Provisional Irish Republican Army’s distinct 1990s era urban guerrilla chic is particularly popular across Terrorgram and Siege culture, with images of masked IRA gunmen frequently used as templates for propaganda and edited to feature far-right symbols or slogans.

For me, the book was more visceral than contemplative, able to elicit powerful emotions often focused around anger, aggression, and depression. Few books I’ve ever encountered had the power to induce the type of righteous anger at the social system we’ve all been failed by. Harassment Architecture could almost be described like a memetic drug, particularly to those of us who have had experiences similar to the author. I recommend reading this book, I recommend reading it after reading “Industrial Society and its Future.” Harassment architecture is, as I see it, a closing statement to Theodore Kaczynski’s thesis, and in so being represents a justification for his entire philosiphy. I disavow the hatred, bigotry and violence expressed in the book, but there were many passages and even whole chapters I quite liked, and at its core this book is a critique of our current state of society - and the state of mankind - that I largely agree with and I am sure his opinions resonate with many others. Also, admittedly, I find his writing style to be refreshing and the stark contrast between sentences often had me laughing. The solution is always found in nature. Whether you decide to dissipate into it or take it on occasion, like medicine, that’s your choice.

In a statement provided to CNN, Tom Denenberg, CEO and director of the Shelburne Museum in Shelburne, Vermont, said, “in light of the serious and troubling allegations reported against David Adjaye, we are actively reviewing our engagement with the architect and his firm.” This is humiliating, intimidating or abusive behavior which is often difficult to detect, leaving no evidence other than victim reports or complaints. This characteristically lowers a person's self-esteem or causes one to have overwhelming torment. [18] This can take the form of verbal comments, engineered episodes of intimidation, aggressive actions or repeated gestures. Falling into this category is workplace harassment by individuals or groups mobbing. The Africa Institute is deeply troubled by the recently reported allegations regarding David Adjaye, and we have made the decision to cancel the building project with Adjaye Associates,” the statement from the Institute’s president, Hoor Al Qasimi, read. “Our decision will not impact our robust research and educational programming at The Institute’s current facilities.”Power harassment is harassment or unwelcome attention of a political nature, often occurring in the environment of a workplace including hospitals, schools and universities. It includes a range of behavior from mild irritation and annoyances to serious abuses which can even involve forced activity beyond the boundaries of the job description. Power harassment is considered a form of illegal discrimination and is a form of political and psychological abuse, and bullying. Office of Justice Programs, F.O.I.A.

Document 3 As well as relinquishing an advisory position with London Mayor Sadiq Khan, the Ghanaian-British architect has stepped down from building projects including the UK’s new Holocaust Memorial and a public library in Oregon that said it had cut ties with his firm, Adjaye Associates, entirely. I'm sitting outside on the terrace and an unexpected calmness washes over me. I'm looking at the trees and the birds in them, jumping from branch to branch. Looks like they're having more fun than myself. I'm looking at all of this through a different lens of emotion and it makes me think about how badly I'd like to embrace nature and live in its purity. In the same thought, I'm aware that by the time I've driven out to a sizable piece of land with all the necessary tools to survive that I'll lose the ambition to follow that feeling. This limbo between a desire to return to the primal world and the realization that it isn't so easy gives me a sense of how deep I've fallen into my comfort zone. Both the Industrial and Agricultural Revolutions and their consequences have been a disaster for the human race. Monroe, Angela (12 November 2012). "Electronic Harassment: Voices in My Mind".
