"The Century’s Zero Cycle. The Explosive Style of the 2000s"
Announcing the end of traditional post-modernism, characterised by supposedly meaningless plays on signs and infinite intertextual exchanges, the article offers an attempt to critically appropriate the post-WTC cultural condition by referring to a number of metaphorical cultural explosions which narrate the end of the post-modern era. The explosions in question are related to both real-life terrorist threats as well to the explosive growth of science and technology, which, in the long run, are likely to redefine fundamental social premises along the lines of trans-culturalism.
