The Digital Debrief on the Geopolitical
Debrief for the Shadow Cabinet from the Secretary of State
Welcome to The Crack-Up, written by Peter Duhon, Secretary of State of The Shadow Cabinet, also known as the editor of the newsletter the Prologue and Director of Art Comments. Appointed as Secretary of State of the Shadow Cabinet by artist Peter Fend, the goal of this newsletter is to provide productive materiality and specificity for discourse, research and debate during a time of unprecedented world turmoil.
The project predates COVID19 but most certainly anticipated while proceeding with caution and rigor, a nightmare of nightmares, it preceded and invited that often fearful question, what if it all just hits the fan?
The name, The Crack-Up derives from F. Scott Fitzgerald’s book collection of essays with the same name.
