Infos

The Palantir Poems by the enigmatic hacker-poet Black Rimbaud dives into the chilling world of contemporary surveillance like no other work before it. In this provocative collection, the tools of omnipresent monitoring are both frightening and amazing. They evoke images of godly oversight, where "God monitors Genesis" just as Sauron watches Frodo. But what if such tools had fallen into the hands of historical monsters? Imagine if Bin Laden or the German Army at Stalingrad had access to these omniscient monitors—or if the French Anti-Revolution had wielded them against Danton and Robespierre.
Black Rimbaud pushes the question further: what happens when surveillance technology, in a strange twist, begins to observe itself? In a collision of prophetic poetry and hacker insights, The Palantir Poems is both a caution and a vision, demanding we rethink our digital reflections and the systems tracking them.

Autor

Black Rimbaud is a boundary-defying hacker, author, artist, and activist whose work merges digital subversion with poetic intensity. Known for adopting the rebellious spirit of 19th-century poet Arthur Rimbaud and reshaping it for the digital age, Black Rimbaud explores the nexus of technology, surveillance, and freedom. From anonymous coding collectives to underground art installations, Black Rimbauds poetry—raw and prophetic—grapples with the paradoxes of digital freedom and control, making their work a powerful manifesto against unchecked surveillance. In The Palantir Poems and other writings, Black Rimbaud asks us not only to observe but to challenge the systems shaping our digital landscapes.
