Mitamine Lab #72 - Ok to Be Tired

Mitamine Lab is a culture laboratory based in Mexico City which blends sound archives with contemporary music and literature.

As the year draws to a close, the 18-year cycle of relentless structural endurance finally ends (Pluto has finally left Capricorn). The siege is over, but the relief is not what you'd expect. It's accompanied by profound exhaustion and total disorientation at the very idea of existing without having to fight to survive.

That's the vertigo of bare existence when survival mode is switched off. All of this aligns closely with Byung-Chul Han’s take on self-exploitation in The Burnout Society and Mark Fisher’s thoughts on contemporary exhaustion.
