Laibach

I have just finished reading the foreword written by Slavoj Zizek in Alezei Monroe's 'Interrogation Machine: Laibach and NSK.' The two examples used to illustrate an image of what Laibach is all about helped me really understand their aims and purpose during the final stage of Yugoslav socialism. The first example: Schumann's "Humoresque" refers to the "inner voice". In the second example : the Abu Gharib tortures, Zizek points out the unspoken guidelines/acts in the US army forces. Zizek then goes on to naming Donald Rumsfeld who addressed the relationship between the known and the unknown: "There and known knowns...There are known unknowns...there are also unknown unknowns and also unknown knowns (which Zizek added). For Zizek the most dangerous out of all the above is the unknown knowns. These are the things we pretend not to know and rather not confront at all. These are the things Laibach flushes out into the open.
