SSSS Administration Of Fear

Pairing heavy noise electronics with a taste for transcendental horror, Samuel’s purpose is to explore the role of fear in social engineering, using techno as a mean to insurrectional accelerationism. As a monicker, SSSS is an exercise in difference and repetition, reducing swiss producer Samuel Savenberg’s name to a string of basic elements—all equal and different. Repetition as a mean of conceptual transport and physical transformation is integral to all forms of expression that aim for a wider understanding of reality within the realm perception, as it is to the reproductive process of knowledge itself. “Images contaminate us like viruses.” This is the conceptual environment in which Administration Of Fear, SSSS’ first proper release, was developed. Influenced by early industrial acts and the purifying experience of raving, along with authors such as Virilio and Baudrillard and recent events concerning digital privacy and surveillance.
