the invisible commitee in translation

For anyone who has followed the developments of the tarnac9, or has even a marginal interest in Agamben, Debord, strategy, autonomy, communes, singularity, etcetera...there is a new translation of what will supposedly be the preface to Semiotext(e)'s printed version of The Coming Insurrection available here. Also, online versions of The Coming Insurrection are available here and here, with downloadable versions in French and English with footnotes. HT to rsg for the initial tip off on this one. I may be spending a lazy Monday reading these over.

ME,
This is a much better translation of that text:

I think this is the forthcoming semiotexte version?

Thanks for this. It does at least appear to be a better translation, although I can't say for sure if it is the forthcoming semiotexte version, as I know that Alexander Galloway is one of the co-translators, and there is no mention in this document of who has done the translation...

As I understand it, the translation was done by a group of translators in NYC and LA, with collaboration from some comrades in France. The lack of any indicated translation is here deliberate.

I know that AG is co-translating a Tiqqun book called Introduction to Civil War. Should be ready soon?

Right you are. I had off the top of my head confused the two books. I know the translation is finished so I imagine it will be available soon. Thanks again.
