Got Raoul Vaneigem's The Movement of the Free Spirit, which gets a helpful review here. I recall liking Raoul more than Guy Debord, who I found too absolutist in a Hegelian sense, but I realize that their egos get in the way in roughly similar ways. They both disparage much that they don't understand fully. So I end up laughing out load at Raoul, rather than with him.
And I'm really enjoying reading Alastair Reynolds's latest. Alastair just keeps getting better. And look at his URL; that voxish feeling. Obviously a man of impeccable taste. He describes one of the art forms of the future: Zero-g glass blowing. If you want a piece, you have to move yourself to the art, because it doesn't survive any inertial force.
