Sex Sells. It Always Has. And the Ad Industry Has Finally Remembered That Sat Aug 02, 2025 19:18 | Lee Taylor
Sex sells, says Lee Taylor, and that is something many brands, caught up in the joyless theatre of modern virtue-signalling, could well stand to relearn.

Any chance of just squatting some derelict building and turning it into a TAZ?

Taz,
I'd say head along to the meeting if you can, all suggestions would probably be welcome.
The TAZ is a useless beyist notion, its best critique is that hakim bey also thinks pedarising kids is revolutionary. Squatting has been tried in this city, at best it creates insular self-congratulatory lifestylist ghettos. Get your politics to the people who count start a proper open social space. Long live the spraoi, leave the past behind you.
Seomra Spraoi is a great project, sorry to hear you have to move out. I'm sure people would donate online if you had that set up. Much easier than printing off a standing order form and then snailmailing it.
if you need help setting up on online paypal donations page i could help
just give me an email and we can discuss
If they want to rent a space thats fine but then they shouldnt have the word "autonomous" in their slogan because they're giving money to a landlord - part of the system!
The idea is not to remove yourself from the system like some purist but to organise as best we can to subvert and overthrow the system. Sure they have a landlord but so does nearly every working person in this city (either literal or a bank as landlord ia mortgage). Were libertarians to try to hold themselves up to your purer-than-thou standards they would become little more than an isolated sub-culture. Autonomy cannot exist under capitalism whether in rented social centres or in squatted buildings, it is a social relationship that pervades every aspect of our lives.
As readers may know, Seomra Spraoi has to vacate its home on Lower Ormond Quay. However, we have been given an extension until June 1st. So there's more time to:
- drop in and see it and see how you can get involved
- pick up a standing order form (or print out the one above)
- come along to one of our events: there are quite a few planned for our final couple of weeks. Keep an eye on Indymedia.
Secondly, the May issue of Totally Dublin has an excellent feature article about Seomra Spraoi with photos. Totally Dublin is a free magazine available in cafes, take-aways, music shops, IFI cinema etc.
