Camping in situ their common purpose was discovering the relevance of this ancient mysterious place. Eventually they were kicked out. The eviction process involved seeking a High Court injunction on named individuals.
Aware of this potential loophole the occupants decided to exploit it and so they all adopted the one name of Wally. The calm of the High Court was shattered as the Wallies of Stonehenge sought justice. The name Wally lost its efficacy by becoming over-identified with Wally Hope. Although the Wally camp was run as an open and undisciplined commune, Russell saw himself as the leader and was not afraid to issue orders. Read more
Nous pouvons tous entrer dans un devenir-noir, dans un devenir-indien, ce qui fut d’ailleurs justement l’intuition humoristique et géniale des Indiens Métropolitains à Rome. (...) Indiani metropolitani est le nom adopté par des groupes d’étudiants et de jeunes travailleurs précaires du Mouvement de 1977 en Italie, point culminant du mouvement de l’Autonomia. Le nom se réfère au fait que ces groupes s’autodéfinissaient comme les habitants d’une sorte de "réserve culturelle" par rapport à l’ordre établi (du travail). Les Indiani metropolitani ont surtout existé à Rome où ils organisèrent des performances au printemps de 1977, et à Bologne, où se forma le groupe analogue Cellule mao-dadaïste. On pourrait dire que ces groupes étaient sous influence situationniste avec une matrice ouvriériste.

Brief Synopsis : The Disappointment : Or, The Force of Credulity is a documentary/musical/fairytale by media artist Brian Springer that explores the legacy of 19th century U.S. anarchism, treasure hunting and spiritualist folk lore through the story of the Springer family’s decades-long search for buried Spanish treasure in the caves of Missouri. The video project grounds the family’s personal history of treasure-hunting into an expanded social/post-colonial context by exploring the repressed histories of a series of atrocities as they reappear transfigured, displaced and disguised in contemporary notions of "discovery." The Disappointment places pressure not just on notions of documentary truth but also on the contested line between legitimated and non-legitimated ’popular’ knowledges and beliefs.
