I really wish Zizek would give lectures on philosophy and not psychoanalysis
Ten minutes long in the video and I'm guessing he is not gonna talk about architecture.
More is less in the flags. people divided themselves with a few colors and shapes.
Brilliant commentary on architecture. The use of performance centers as a way to show the disparities of wealth was brilliant as well. A great example is Lincoln Center in NYC
Im an artist…
Now i get it.
Don't complete your work,and they will call it a pice of art one day 🙂
The same is in sex,leave incomplete your work and partner wil began to hunting you for one more time..
Ho ho who is mr.wanted now?
one of the smartest people alive. thanks for uploading 🙂
This man is brilliant…..the privatization and monetizing of public spaces for obscene elitist posturing is indeed a toxic ideology that is robbing future generations of what little remains of the simple pleasures of life…… capitalism has failed.
Architect Miel said it as a rule in his design of buildings, “Less is more” he was right in his thinking. Less means more room to think further. It is what is left out of a drawing for example that gives an artist drawing its powerful effect, let the viewers complete a drawing with his/her own imagination. Let’s suggest not impose and dictate. Man’s ego don’t allows much room in the act of free thinking, this is why most what is said in the world is a repeat of a repeat and comes to nothing other than boring. Zizek says more by his suggestions of thinking the opposite of what the words pretend to say and look at things from the reflection of a mirror with many distortions. Complete the image by yourself, don’t let the reflected image dictate your thinking solely from what appears since what appears is never the essence of the things under observation.
Best Game of Thrones season 8 reaction
It amazes me that people can't understand žižek and so instead of trying to make an effort to understand, they just sit there agape staring at their monitors and then comment, "this doesn't make any sense, stop smoking weed bro XD" Things tend not to make sense when you don't know what the other person is saying. Writing looks like strange abstract scratching to the illiterate.
I did a transcription of this audio (with some little mistakes, sorry), you can find it in my blog:

Žižek doesn't know,
that he knows,
he is scratching his nose.

The Silesian philharmony is in the reverse order

Such a room that is not in a plan of a house is also (I imagine, haven't been there) a building of Bergheim in Berlin…
The psychoanalysis of it is the same – obscenity? Tabu?
Too much fun.
what the hell is he talking about…
Slovoj Zizek is the personification of a shot of espresso.
restless genius!
I really like the part with toilets in conclusion, 51'30''
Thank You mr. Žižek!!
His anecdote about Ben Hur reminds me of the time i taped Clockwork Orange, the tape ran out as Alex threw himself out the window, I feel like it felt better tied together ending there, and still left you questions. That's actually even earlier in the book than in the movie so Kubrick had already been trimming the ending for a similar effect
I always thought the Tardis in Dr Who was a wonderful conceit.
He has good ideas and arguments but, it just takes him too fucking long to get to the point.
fucking pedofil
He says more interesting things about architecture than art historians or theorists. It is always people outside the field that can really do that. You can say a non-specialist is free of the ideology of the profession that determines what can be thought and said about architecture. It is close to Bataille also.
MR Zizek!!! the quote you referred to by Donald Rumsfeld is not actually his, it's by a Persian Poet ''Ibn Yamin'' in the 13th century (The one who knows and knows that he knows….), Also Confucius has the similar short quote like that.
he is high))
"DERRRR" – Everyone here
Errr…huh?
Zizek is a stupid Marxist
