In this interview with Julian Jason Haladyn, we discuss his recent book
"Boredom and Art - Passions of the Will to Boredom", in the process
covering a range of issues, from how boredom emerges as distinctive to
the modern and post-modern experience, and how inhabiting the space of
boredom can represent an act of powerful subversion (with a tip of hat
to Walter Benjamin). Also, we look at how the art of such as Edouard
Manet, Marcel Duchamp, On Kawara, and Chantal Akerman draw us to
engagement in that subversion.
