AAA DANS LE PAN-SPECTACLE

A PhD in economics and a game theoretician, Anne-Sarah Huet has focused on the flowering of personal development literature in the United States and its more recent growth in Europe. She sees there a system of protocols and an attachment to procedure that are the very stuff of computer science and marketing.

Conceived and written for the Sedona show, AAA DANS LE PAN-SPECTACLE is neither fiction nor theory. The text is more akin to a long tweet or a stream of consciousness when the consciousness is on acid (or a spiked version of Capri Sun). Infused with a comic critique, this text-object gives us the crazy mechanisms – crazy, yet accepted, integrated, even trivialized – involved in the capitalization of emotions, beliefs, and happiness.
