Immensely enjoyed your book on the SI, but between some of the comments in the introduction and from the piece posted above, I can't help but notice your slight disdain for the "High Theory" of Badiou, Zizek ("Badizek") and others. It's not as if the "low theory" of Jorn and Debord is easier to grapple with at times, even with your approachable and engaging interpretation and style. 

Alain Badiou will not be attending after all?
