Indeed... His Dasein has the tendency to drift from him especially after a visit to Starbuck...Being highly aware of this effect of espresso, he has to check himself, by touching the nose and other parts of his body, to make sure that he is still there , That his Dasein really is at the intended place.
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.
It's just his idiosyncratic way of lecturing that he always has, not really because he is outside the field. He is actually inside the field in some sense, since he is a famous philosopher and knows the aesthetic and political philosophy behind the architectures.
The part about the toilet at the ZKM is not correct: Instead of a prerecordet tape, the camera is constantly filming but just a miniature replica of the actual toilets. The miniature is also located there. Just incase anyone was wondering... after 11 years :D
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.

You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension - a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into the Zizek Zone.
I try to watch things like this every few days - and everything I have to reestablish my grip on what reality actually is. Capsulization is interesting when you merge it conceptually with duality and contrast nonduality or singularity.
Modernity is a beast. We have to preserve existing historical buildings as well as nature and create new buildings as invisible to the natural and build environment as possible - ideally, modern buildings have to imitate the environment and the culture around them and not the other way around, because the core problem with modernity is that those 'machines', we call 'architecture', treat us equally the same as machines = It is a legacy of the industrial revolution that we wrongly try to paint away with liberal and / or socialist colors. This is nobody's fault, the goal of life and civilization is self-development. People crowded in cities in the 1920s would do anything to live in projects with running water and heating, we consider modern architecture ugly (which is justified), but we have also spoiled ourselves a lot since then. Trying to find an aesthetic in Brutalism is an interesting experience as we have a general natural fascination with monumentality, but there are other ways to make architecture more pleasant. Only true masters and artists can master minimalism, it should not be sold as a product and it should definitely not be mass produced as an alternative architecture. Architecture is not about creating a free aesthetic as in the liberal arts, architecture is simply an imitation of society that uses "form" to create an experience. In addition to art, which has an ideal-aesthetic purpose, architecture also has to fulfill a practical one, but I agree that we have to preserve culture and harmony when designing a building, but creating beauty in a practical form comes into conflict with it Economic and Modern Constraints. So these "classical" principles we see in pre-modern architecture were reserved by a minority of elites and their gods - since 10,000 years the absolute majority of the human population and craftsmen, relied on vernacular, conventional and/or vulgar buildings. They didn't have the luxury to enjoy the beauty of architecture as we do it today (Ironically we have to blame liberty, secularism and democracy for today's architectural ugliness). The point of architectural beauty was to legitimize divine power over a minority, to give society a supernatural and/or divine experience. The only reason classical relics like the Pantheon, the Taj Mahal or the Porcelain Palace still exist is because their beauty and/or cultural significance saved them from destruction.
Not modernity, in the sense of 'modernism,' but 'postmodernism' is the beast. Most design that [succeeds] that might be labelled 'postmodern' upon closer inspection conforms to the tenets of modernism, and not the numinous vacuum of ideas that is postmodernism, 'playful eclecticism,' 'classical allusions' and 'references' that to my mind bespeak just lack of talent or imagination, or sincerity or erudition. Atop all these buildings all these triangles with circles cut out of them and here's me without a rocket launcher. By the way, to someone well qualified like myself, a [good] designer if I may say so, most of this just makes me laugh because we designers do not come to our good things by any process matching these cogitations, in fact there's not a lot of thinking goes into it. No designer I have ever known proceeds on the basis of politics or even theory. You have doubtless heard the one about how one should not try to please one's audience but please oneself else expect to fail? That's part of why. Annoyingly I know a few people who defy that rule very successfully and I do resent them just a little but maybe it would be better to blame the suzerainty of unfettered capitalism. Perhaps we are indeed 'visual creatures' insofar as no idea of mine, big or small, arises from these lofty intellectual bases (unless you are a good-for-nothing like Michael Graves or make insults to humanity like Starke's positively dangerous at best citrus squeezer) although I do find them passingly interesting to read. I think I've worked out what I was trying to say: there is an enormous difference, a dysjunction, near inimical, between what the artist makes and how and why, and what tryhard nonsense of 'meaning' the (usually mediocre) critic ascribes to it. But in all this I see there is that question of scale, for want of better word; there is the object itself and then there is the gigantic question of where it fits in the scheme of things and it is learning about that I, humble stupid maker, look forward to. Now I better listen to Slavoj and have my arse handed to me on a crappy foil platter, best way there is. PS I think you put that exceptionally well XD
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.
4:10 you can see this in the vaporwave genre in music. Instead of just going down the formulaic boring process of making edm, which is just plastic commercial kitch, they took old melancholic and nostalgic snippets of music, sometimes just some random background music from an elevator, and slowed them down, made them sound distorted, etc. The lower the quality the better. And it is the freshest thing that happened in music in the past 10 years or so. And it had nothing to do with skill or money. It was an honest creative endeavor because they weren’t concerned with sound quality, target audiences or fitting in. It rebels against the old stale notions of what is supposed to be music. Some vaporwave songs only took 10 seconds to “make”. In by that I mean they took old music somebody else made and just slowed it down, nothing more. To me that is far more artistic than most things in music today. At least it is honest, at least it challenges culture, at least it isn’t scared into submission.
Two things I would love to see: Slavoy cleaning his hair^^ and him being more detailed if it comes to his thesis. I agree with him in many points, and enjoy each of his talks, but I think his speaks lack of more detailed examples and arguments.
I wonder if the house serves as an allegory for Lacan's triad: - outside of house = Symbolic - inside of house = Imaginary - plumbing = Real Any thoughts?
Guilherme Frederico Lima In Jungian psychoanalysis it might be: Outside the house-symbolic-other Inside the house-imaginary-ego Plumbing-real-anal phase To capitulate, humans never mature.
23:00 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?
for a while i have believed that a new architecture could cause a new society, a new form of a school, a new psychological basis of society...so much of the collective unconscious comes fromthe earliest forms of buildings (and their uses)
I live in ost berlin and i have a toilet like this that Slavoj is describing... I can see my shit clearly...die Dinge of Emm. Kant, i can enrich my Bewusstsein/consciousness and report to my beloved Hegelian State the fact of a possible illness..
"things that we know, but we don't know that we know them".....hmmmmmm, but then we can't see the flies in our eyes, because the flies in our eyes are keeping us from seeing the flies (Catch -22)...mas por menos...Interesting!
Well this one does make sense, the unconscious is something that you know, because its a part of you and deep inside your mind you know it, but you don't know it consciously.

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.

People talk of him in such a way that leaves me wondering where the man they’re talking about is 😅 I think they’re more entranced by his accent than what he says
You're commenting this under a video where he talked about the mute language of buildings and the unique power of the arts to articulate that which can not be articulated; to make the point to the architects in the room that they are a key part of the revolutionary struggle?

The general public is powerless to principles believed in by the alienated. The general critique of his ideas: if such a thing ever occurs as a possible direction or development; regards certain principles of the dominant conception as facts of nature, but argues that certain knowledge is impossible. This makes them unable to rationalize solutions to problems that they have created themselves like the global economic network that contributes increasingly to climate sensitivity because of the rate of change of globalization.
OK...I agree on the responsibility of architects to incorporate all the above into their design and the importance of this responsiility...I don't quiet get how and from which viewpoint we could adress this issue though. Is it the socio-political, the economical, the functional one or even all together and to what direction... To push towards a revolution through or with architecture? He just said that "we", architects, are "by nature" there to simply translate the zeitgeist into mute-speaking volumes... Was this talk just a critisism of architecture? I do not see a personal opinion from mr Zizek on the subject as he does on skiing fo examle.
an intellectual makes a simple idea into a complicated one. an artist does the opposite .if you examine history you will see that most dangerous and distructive forces were created by intelectuals
less and more, eh! the reality (un)principle of minima morelia, or what ~ either/or > or what? .... betterthan, materially and economically speaking requires an Or What, no? How else does indeterminacy and the drive for economic extreme commensurability avoid aesthetics ~ the wrapping paper of life, as a misre-present-nation of, Of-ness of Having-Being?
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.

Маша Кот wat
Маша Кот WOW, nobody has said that about a Zizek lecture in the RUclips comments ever XDDD
I'm stating the obvious as anyone here can confirm.
xD Funniest comment in a long time
Zizek always uses the same examples and jokes in every talk, just to make slightly different points about different subjects 😂
what the hell is he talking about...
lol
my own genocide? rly?
Cocaine...
Cocaine everywhere...
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.
Right. One hour of deep content and all people can comment is that he's touching his nise
thanks, made my day (I try to read one piece of BS everyday in order to remind myself of human stupidity)

He has good ideas and arguments but, it just takes him too fucking long to get to the point.
+Ender Wiggin He was influenced by Marx :P
+Edward Nigma or Hegel?
treintaydiez Both, and I'm sure many other late-enlightenment and many other modern and contemporary leftists too. I was just making a joke about the hellish 20+ hours I spent trying to read Das Kapital.
+Edward Nigma I got it :) and I hear you. I had to do it too, there was no coffee in the world who would make go through a whole chapter in one sitting down
treintaydiez I gave up half way through Vol III. I'm no serious economists, and Marx's more in-depth analyses of the economy he lived in were largely contextualized to the time, and his broader criticisms of capitalism are really not that difficult to understand.
I'm ten minutes in and this man is making no sense to me at all.
Perhaps you're stupid?
It’s amazing how stupid a person can get. Thanks for the great post!
they should put subtitles on this. and is he on coke? he keeps sniffing and rubbing his nose, and he looks like hes twitching out a little too lol
